Laboratory-acquired Infections
Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 2000Summary LAIs still occur but the risk can be minimized by use of standard precautions, good microbiological technique, and adherence to a comprehensive safety program. The health care organization and laboratory director must provide a safe work environment, but it is the responsibility of each employee to be aware of potential hazards and the ...

Laboratory Diagnosis of Fetal Infections
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1992In utero infections of the fetus can lead to significant morbidity and mortality in the newborn child. The signs and symptoms of clinical disease, however, do not always suggest a given pathogen. The laboratory must be able to provide an early and accurate diagnosis of the causative agent so that prompt and appropriate antimicrobial therapy and medical

Laboratory Diagnosis of Retroviral Infections
Dermatologic Clinics, 1991The molecular biology techniques that were once the exclusive domain of the basic researcher are now becoming apparent within the diagnostic laboratory. Techniques that can detect and quantify the specific genes of retroviruses without the need for radioactive compounds are becoming a reality.

Laboratory diagnosis of Bartonella infections
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2002Bartonella species are pathogens of emerging and reemerging significance, causing a wide array of clinical syndromes. In North America and Europe, they are increasingly recognized as a cause of culture negative endocarditis, neuroretinitis, and disease among homeless, HIV-infected, and other immunosuppressed individuals. In South America, bartonellosis

Laboratory diagnosis of respiratory infections
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1999The laboratory diagnosis of infections of the respiratory tract is not an exact science, with many clinicians electing to empirically select antimicrobial therapy without the benefit of laboratory testing. With trained laboratory personnel and the proper selection of tests, accurate laboratory diagnosis is available.

Laboratory diagnosis of fungal infections
Human Pathology, 1976Most hospitals do not perform mycologic examinations because laboratory personnel still believe in the "old wives' tale" that mycology is too difficult to do and that the fungi are too infectious to handle. This discussion presents methods suitable for use in laboratories of all sizes.

Laboratory Diagnosis of HEV Infection
2016Serological and nucleic acid tests for detecting hepatitis E virus (HEV) have been developed for both epidemiologic and diagnostic purposes. The laboratory diagnosis of HEV infection depends on the detection of HEV antigen or HEV RNA in the blood, stool, and other body fluids, and serum antibodies against HEV (immunoglobulin [Ig]A, IgM, and IgG).

Laboratory infections with Coxsackie viruses
Archiv f�r die gesamte Virusforschung, 1953In a previously described outbreak of epidemic myalgia, in which Coxsackie virus (Dalldorf's type B 3) was recovered from about one third of the cases, there were a large number of patients with aseptic meningoencephalitis. Virus was recovered from the fluid of one of these patients.
