Reconfirming the Group A Strep Diagnostic Algorithm with Molecular Confirmation

Group A Streptococcus (Group A Strep) remains fairly unchanged and is well-understood by the scientific community. However, our methods of detection have significantly improved as have various options for testing. With so many advancements in the landscape of molecular diagnostics, it is vital for all healthcare institutions to thoroughly understand and appropriately plan for common and potentially, high volume tests. In this free webinar, the featured speaker will review and explore the topic of “The Group A Strep Diagnostic Algorithm” and support a closing Q&A session. As part of his discussion, he will define and review items such as testing requirements, the disease state, prevalence in specific demographics and geographies, disease implications, the benefits and drawbacks of various testing methodologies and the testing needs of today’s variety of healthcare settings.

Characterization of Oral Gut-Selective vs. Systemic JAK Inhibitors in the Mouse Oxazolone Colitis Model

Honeycomb Worldwide Inc

Autoimmune diseases such as ulcerative colitis require chronic treatment that often causes systemic immunosuppression, increasing long term cancer and infection risk. Reducing systemic side effects with localized treatment would greatly benefit patients. This webinar will explore the spatial characterization of oral gut-selective versus systemically available JAK inhibitors in the mouse oxazolone model of ulcerative colitis using the GeoMx™ Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP) from NanoString®.

FDA FSMA Preventive Controls: Cross Contact and Contact Contamination

Edupliance

Biological, chemical and physical contaminants continue to play a significant role in causing human illness and death. While most food supply companies are becoming slowly aware of the breadth of system responsibilities they must assume in terms of preventing food safety problems, many are ineffective due to their lack of how contaminants flow through the supply chain and how to establish procedures to stop such flows from entering or exiting their own doors.
