[Subtypes of respiratory syncytial viruses].

Lijecnicki vjesnik, 1999
Antigenically the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is of two types: A and B. Five structural proteins express virus type differences. Antigenic and genetic differences among individual strains of the same virus type are classed accordingly by monoclonal antibody reactivity into antigenic subtypes; for nucleotide sequence and restriction maps of ...

Human Metapneumovirus and Its Association With Otorhinolaryngological Manifestations: A Systematic Review With Descriptive Synthesis

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a respiratory virus that predominantly affects the pediatric population. Its role as an infective agent in ear, nose, and throat (ENT) diseases is not yet well understood. To systematically review the available literature on the association between HMPV and ENT manifestations, following PRISMA guidelines, a ...

Integrated one‐pot CRISPR‐Cas detection: Addressing strategies and future prospects

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Integrated one‐pot CRISPR‐Cas detection significantly simplifies workflows, reduces cross‐contamination risks, and shortens turnaround times, making it highly suitable for point‐of‐care testing (POCT) and resource‐limited settings. Key challenges include system compatibility issues between Cas proteins and isothermal amplification, limited multiplexing

A Novel Air‐Liquid Interface Exposure System for Continuous Gas Exposure of Airway Epithelial Cells: Exposure of NO2 With Viral Co‐Challenge

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most in vitro toxicological research investigating the effects of inhaled compounds employ short‐term exposures of a couple of hours, or repeated, intermittent exposures for a limited number of days with exposure free periods, whereas in reality, we are continuously exposed, albeit to variable concentrations.
