Prevalence of diagnostically-discrepant Clostridioides difficile clinical specimens: insights from longitudinal surveillance

Frontiers in Medicine, 2023
BackgroundClostridioides difficile Infection (CDI) is a healthcare-associated diarrheal disease prevalent worldwide. A common diagnostic algorithm relies on a two-step protocol that employs stool enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) to detect the pathogen, and its

WWER-1000 core loading characteristic influence on irradiation conditions of surveillance specimens and reactor pressure vessel [PDF]

Ядерна фізика та енергетика, 2009
Irradiation conditions of WWER-1000 surveillance specimens and reactor pressure vessel are comparative analyzed for various core loadings. It is proved that the fluences onto specimens don't correlate with ones onto pressure vessel.
