Most infections present as a syndrome, with signs and symptoms that are common to many pathogens. Traditional diagnostic methods often rely on guesswork—ordering a targeted test for the most probable cause of illness, waiting hours or even days for results, and repeating the process until a pathogen is positively identified. The syndromic approach, however, empowers healthcare ...
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a well-known technique that has been adopted for detection of many bacteria, fungi, viruses, and viroids due to high specificity and sensitivity. However, most of the currently used PCR analysis techniques for multiple pathogen detection are very time-consuming, require tedious reaction set up in strictly controlled laboratory conditions and prone to user ...

The idea is simple: when a patient has a bacterial infection, doctors should find out what kind of bacteria it is so they can give the most effective treatment. But growing bacteria in a lab to identify it takes hours to days. That means doctors have to make their best guess, and because there are dozens of possible strains, they guess wrong up to a third of the time. Seattle biotech startup ID ...
