A multiplex real-time PCR quantitation of human herpesvirus-6, 7, 8 viruses: application in blood transfusions

Virology Journal, 2021
Background In recent years, fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays for detecting viral DNA are in widespread use throughout the world. However, considering the wide distribution of new herpesvirus among the population, we constructed a

Severe myocarditis of possible human herpesviruses and 7 etiology in an 8-year-old immunocompetent child

Pediatria Polska, 2021
In this paper we present a case of an 8-year-old immunocompetent boy with acute myocarditis caused probably by concomitant human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) with human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) infection.

Human herpes virus 8 antibodies in HIV-positive patients in Surabaya, Indonesia

Infectious Disease Reports, 2020
Background: Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infection is etiologically related to Kaposi’s sarcoma. Antibodies directed against HHV-8 can be detected in 80%–95% of HIV-seropositive patients with KS. HHV-8 serological tests have been done in several countries

Effect of acute Plasmodium falciparum malaria on reactivation and shedding of the eight human herpes viruses. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Human herpes viruses (HHVs) are widely distributed pathogens. In immuno-competent individuals their clinical outcomes are generally benign but in immuno-compromised hosts, primary infection or extensive viral reactivation can lead to critical diseases ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Association between Pityriasis Rosea (PR) and HHV-6/HHV-7 Infection: Importance of Sample Selection and Diagnostic Techniques

Diagnostics
Recent studies have focused on the role of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) in PR etiology with varying results. In our study, with the approach that the discrepancy between the results may be related to the different samples ...

Combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and adding red mud as a secondary catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming of digestate

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This work studies the combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and introducing red mud as a support catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming (TCR®) of digestate. The TCR® method, developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT (abbreviated as Fraunhofer UMSICHT), is an extension

Multiplex qPCR facilitates identification of betaherpesviruses in patients with acute liver failure of unknown etiology

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background The etiology of acute liver failure (ALF) is often unknown and reported to be associated with herpesviruses in a number of cases. In this study, we examined for betaherpesviruses infections in patients with ALF of unknown etiology using a ...

Sensitivity analysis and stochastic optimization of levelized cost of hydrogen production through methane pyrolysis

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrogen plays a crucial role across multiple industrial sectors and is increasingly recognized as a clean energy carrier with significant potential in decarbonization efforts. Methane pyrolysis (MP), particularly using molten metal catalysts, offers a promising pathway for hydrogen production with low CO2 emissions.
