Can Oral Swabs Be Used to Diagnose Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Cervicofacial Lymphadenitis?

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We investigated the presence of mycobacteria in the oral cavity and oropharynx of children with nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) cervicofacial lymphadenitis compared to negative controls. Our aim was to evaluate whether oral cavity and oropharyngeal swab sampling could serve as a minimally invasive alternative to diagnostic ...

GAS‐J, a User‐Friendly Browser Application for Genome Assembly, emm‐Typing, MLST Typing, and Virulence Factor Gene Detection of Streptococcus pyogenes

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clinical isolates of Streptococcus pyogenes are usually classified using emm and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Recently, whole genome sequencing (WGS) has been employed for emm typing and MLST analysis. WGS data provides additional information on the presence of virulence factor genes.
