#Meningococcal infection can exhibit enormous mortality rates, so early #diagnosis is crucial for successful treatment. That’s why we developed our non-invasive direct swab, providing accurate results up to 72 times faster than culture methods: bit.ly/3bgzdhP

When new-born babies are given strong #antibiotics to treat #GroupBStrep, it can sometime disrupt the development of their #ImmuneSystems. But researchers at @CincyChildrens have discovered a promising form of protection: bit.ly/3OQB9v9
#DidYouKnow that #GroupBStreptococcus (GBS) is carried by 20-30 % of pregnant women? This puts babies at risk of infection, which is why we developed our HG GBS rapid, real-time #intrapartum test that aims to reduce mortality and morbidity: bit.ly/3vuVZJF

July marked international #GroupBStrep awareness month! With this fresh in our minds, we thought we'd share this @UHSFT article that outlines plans for a new #ClinicalTrial, testing a novel #vaccine against #GroupBStreptococcus infection: bit.ly/3ziEz3U

We are delighted to announce our latest PCR assay - PCR Adapt Covid-19/Flu Combo. This is an RT-qPCR test for the direct detection and differentiation of #Covid19 and #Flu A & B, without sample extraction. #pcrtesting #moleculardiagnostics hibergene.com/products/respi…

We’ve recently seen another rise in #COVID19 cases, but we’re in a better position for #treatment and #testing. If you're a #healthcare worker, look at our PCR Adapt for COVID-19! It's a high-throughput test, providing results in just 55-70 minutes: bit.ly/3BCvYMp

We’re not short of #LessonsLearned from #COVID19. But something essential to take forward with us, as we learn to live in this ‘new normal’, is #MultiPathogen diagnostics. This @Telegraph article explains what this means for #healthcare systems: bit.ly/3Ipd3G6

#ClinicalDiagnosis of #Sepsis has previously relied on identifying symptoms appearing at the more damaging, later stages of the condition. But, this @dailynexus article outlines how #MolecularDiagnostic testing could recognise the early stages: bit.ly/3nPCB5E

The BA.2.75 variant “Centaurus” was first detected in India in May. Cases in the UK have since risen steeply – and apparently faster than those of the extremely transmissible BA.5 variant. #covid19test theguardian.com/world/2022/j…

Using #DiagnosticTesting to correctly identify conditions can prevent inappropriate #drug use, helping to combat #AntibioticResistance. The @FinancialTimes recently outlined how improved diagnostic tools are essential to this: on.ft.com/3NR4Yey

The latest #variants are masters at evading immunity – previous infection & vaccines unlikely to provide much protection. #https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jul/05/new-covid-variants-ba4-ba5-most-contagious-australia-third-omicron-wave-coronavirus-subvariants-ba-4-5

Researchers are emphasising the need for a clinical trial with the goal of identifying whether screening pregnant women for #GroupBStrep infection – like the USA – reduces baby mortality or morbidity. Testing for #GBS is vital for saving lives bit.ly/3Igb2fi

July is #GBSawarenessmonth! HG #GroupBStreptococcus allows for #antepartum GBS screening, intrapartum testing and testing at-risk or symptomatic newborns for optimal treatment of GBS. hibergene.com/products/women… #moleculardiagnostics #intrapartumtesting #groupbstrep #gbsaware
