Multicenter Evaluation of the QIAstat‐Dx and the BioFire Multiplex Panel Tests for the Detection of Respiratory Pathogens

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Syndromic multiplex panel testing enables simultaneous detection of multiple respiratory pathogens, but limited data is available on the comparative diagnostic performance of different testing systems. In this multicenter prospective study, we aimed to compare the QIAstat‐Dx Respiratory Panel 2.0 (QIAstat‐Dx‐RP2.0) with the widely used BioFire‐

Genome Sequence of the Cat Pathogen, Chlamydophila felis [PDF]

DNA Research, 2006
Chlamydophila felis (Chlamydia psittaci feline pneumonitis agent) is a worldwide spread pathogen for pneumonia and conjunctivitis in cats. Herein, we determined the entire genomic DNA sequence of the Japanese C. felis strain Fe/C-56 to understand the mechanism of diseases caused by this pathogen. The C.
