nf-core/detaxizer: a benchmarking study for decontamination from human sequences. [PDF]
NAR Genom BioinformAbstract Privacy is paramount in health data, particularly in human genetics, where information extends beyond individuals to their relatives. Metagenomic datasets contain substantial human genetic material, necessitating careful handling to mitigate data leakage risks when sharing or publishing. The same applies to genetic datasets from

Environmental and decontamination issues for human coronaviruses and their potential surrogates [PDF]
Journal of Medical Virology, 2020 AbstractPandemic coronavirus disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) gives ample reason to generally review coronavirus (CoV) containment. For establishing some preliminary views on decontamination and disinfection, surrogate CoVs have commonly been assessed. This review serves to examine the existing science in regard to CoV containment generically and then to ...

Toxicology Letters, 2018 This study compared the efficiency for in vitro human skin decontamination using DDGel and RSDL. Experiments were performed using in vitro human skin models, in which skin was mounted onto Flow-Through diffusion cells. The mass of 14-C CEES removed from skin surface after decontamination was quantitated by measuring radioactivity with a liquid ...

Determination of ethyl glucuronide in human hair samples: Decontamination vs extraction [PDF]
Drug Testing and Analysis, 2020 AbstractDecontamination of samples prior to analysis is common practice and recommended for ethyl glucuronide (EtG) hair testing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the applied decontamination procedure during routine hair EtG analysis by monitoring the ethyl glucuronide concentrations in the washing solutions from a representative cohort of ...

Prophylactically Decontaminating Human Islet Product for Safe Clinical Application
Transplantation Direct, 2016 Transplanting pancreatic islets into recipients must be safe and effective to treat Type 1 diabetes. Islet quality and quantity are important, however, the final product must also be free from microbial contamination and low endotoxin levels.This study explored a method to eliminate contamination in manufacturing islets for transplantation.

Human microbial ecology: Lactobacilli, probiotics, selective decontamination
Anaerobe, 2011 Health care-associated infections are closely associated with different medical interventions which interrupt the balance of human microbiota. The occasional predominance of opportunistic pathogens may lead to their translocation into the lymph nodes and bloodstream, causing endogenous (primary or secondary) hospital infections.
