Abstract: Short tandem repeat (STR) typing from skeletal remains can be a difficult task. Dependent on the environmental conditions of the provenance of the bones, DNA can be degraded and STR typing inhibited. Generally, dense and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fsigss.2019.10.023
Abstract: Abstract Despite many protocols are proposed for STR analysis of old human remains, the question of preferential DNA source for successful genotyping is still open. Herein we compared STR typing efficiency in DNA samples extracted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.04618-22
Abstract: Candida tropicalis frequently causes candidemia in immunocompromised patients. C. tropicalis infections have a high mortality rate, and the yeast is able to cause outbreaks in health care facilities. Further, antifungal resistant isolates are on the… read more here.
