Evaluation of a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based method for detection of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva

The use of a non-invasive fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based method on saliva for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 is evaluated in a proof-of-concept study and thereafter utilized in an outpatient setting with the Biotrack-MED® analyzer. For a proof-of-concept study…

Direct detection of SARS-CoV-2 antisense and sense genomic RNA in human saliva by semiautonomous
fluorescence in situ hybridization: A proxy for contagiousness?

Saliva is a matrix which may act as a vector for pathogen transmission and may serve as a possible proxy for SARS-CoV-2 contagiousness. Therefore, the possibility of detection of intracellular SARS-CoV-2 in saliva by means of fluorescence in situ hybridization…

Nine-month presence of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva: a case report

SARS-CoV-2 is a novel coronavirus that mainly affects the upper airways. Approximately one third of all detected cases is asymptomatic. We report an asymptomatic individual who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 over a period of nine months,…

Development and validation of an alternative parameter for quantification of signals emitted by fluorescently labelled bacteria in microscopic images

In this study, an alternative parameter for quantifying the signals of fluorescently labelled bacteria (e.g. propidium iodide, Cyanine 3, etc.) in microscopic images was investigated. Three common parameters (mean grey value (MGV), mean grey value which is corrected…

Different binarization processes validated against manual counts of fluorescent bacterial cells

State of the art software methods (such as fixed value approaches or statistical approaches) to create a binary image of fluorescent bacterial cells are not as accurate and precise as they should be for counting bacteria and measuring their area. To overcome these bottlenecks,
