Cytometry in High-Containment Laboratories
The emergence of new pathogens continues to fuel the need for advanced high-containment laboratories across the globe. Here we explore challenges and... -
Quantifying Viable M. tuberculosis Safely Obviating the Need for High Containment Facilities
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an infectious pathogen that requires biosafety level-3 laboratory for handling. The risk of transmission is high to... -
A theoretical analysis of tumour containment
Recent studies have shown that a strategy aiming for containment, not elimination, can control tumour burden more effectively in vitro, in mouse...
