MALDI-based protein mass pattern detection ('profiling') is an inexpensive and straightforward approach for bacterial classification and identification. The method can easily distinguish bacteria ...

The need for new fast classification methods has become increasingly important. When a patient arrives at a medical center ...

This new technology uses artificial intelligence to convert microscopic images of unstained bacteria into their ... where quick and accurate bacterial classification is crucial for diagnostic ...

In the process, we have still only discovered perhaps 1% of all bacteria, and possibly an even lower percentage of phages and viruses. Microbiology has come a long way, and has a longer way to go.

including targeted 16S rRNA for bacterial taxonomic classification and tiled multiplex PCR for viral whole-genome sequencing. Our first speaker for this webinar, Dr. Joseph Petrone, will discuss how ...
