In the world of modern diagnostics, speed, accuracy, and comprehensiveness are critical—especially when dealing with complex infections. The latest advancements in targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) are redefining how laboratories detect pathogens and manage antimicrobial resistance (AMR). At the core of this innovation is HyPA (Hyperplex …
Introduction In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, the demand for fast, accurate, and accessible diagnostic tools has never been greater. Molecular diagnostics, particularly PCR-based testing, has become the gold standard for detecting infectious diseases. At the forefront of this transformation is Bioeksen—a company redefining how …
The increasing burden of infectious diseases demands diagnostic solutions that are not only rapid but also highly sensitive and comprehensive. Conventional diagnostic methods often fall short due to time delays and limited pathogen coverage. In this context, multiplex real-time PCR technologies are revolutionizing infectious disease …
Introduction Candida auris is an emerging multidrug-resistant yeast responsible for outbreaks of healthcare-associated infections worldwide. It is difficult to identify by conventional culture and biochemical methods, often misidentified as other Candida species (C. haemulonii, C. famata). Rapid and accurate detection is essential to initiate infection …
Introduction Respiratory tract infections are caused by a wide range of pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Conventional diagnostic methods such as culture, microscopy, and antigen detection are time-consuming and often lack sensitivity. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays, applied directly to respiratory samples (sputum, …
Introduction Polymerase Chain Reaction, commonly known as PCR, is a powerful and widely used molecular biology technique that allows for the amplification of specific DNA sequences. Developed by Kary B. Mullis in 1983, PCR revolutionized the field of genetics and has become an essential tool …
