This study was to develop a multiplex fluorescent PCR for Shigella detection and species identification. Five primer pairs for Shigella detection and species identification were designed by Primer Premier 5.0. The multiplex fluorescent PCR was optimized by varying single parameter while other parameters were maintained. The multiplex fluorescent PCR assay could correctly detect Shigella and identify four Shigella species with a detection limits of 10 pg genomic DNA per reaction. Testing different strains and clinical samples confirmed the sensitivity and specificity of the multiplex fluorescent PCR. The newly developed multiplex fluorescent PCR assay is simple, sensitive and specific for Shigella detection and species identification. It has a potential to be used in routine Shigella detection and species identification in clinical laboratories.

Preliminary characterisation of the spatial immune and vascular environment in triple negative basal breast carcinomas using multiplex fluorescent immunohistochemistry.

Triple negative breast cancers often contain higher numbers of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes compared with other breast cancer subtypes, with their number correlating with prolonged survival. Since little is known about tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte trafficking in triple negative breast cancers, we investigated the relationship between tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes and the vascular compartment to better understand the immune tumour microenvironment in this aggressive cancer type. We aimed to identify mechanisms and signaling pathways responsible for immune cell trafficking in triple negative breast cancers, specifically of basal type, that could potentially be manipulated to change such tumours from immune "cold" to "hot" thereby increasing the likelihood of successful immunotherapy in this challenging patient population.

Over recent years, the LUMinescent AntiBody Sensor (LUMABS) system, utilizing bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), has emerged as a highly effective method for antibody detection. This system incorporates NanoLuc (Nluc) as the donor and fluorescent protein (FP) as the acceptor. However, the limited Stokes shift of FP poses a challenge, as it leads to significant spectral cross-talk between the excitation and emission spectra.

Objectives: Multiplex immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence (mIHC/IF) are emerging technologies that can be used to help define complex immunophenotypes in tissue, quantify immune cell subsets, and assess the spatial arrangement of marker expression. mIHC/IF assays require concerted efforts to optimize and validate the multiplex staining protocols prior to their application on slides. The best practice guidelines for staining and validation of mIHC/IF assays across platforms were previously published by this task force.

The development of rapid and multiplexed point-of-care (POC) diagnostic tools is vital for the prevention and control of sexually transmitted diseases (STIs). Here, we developed a POC-comprehensive Thermococcus thioreducensArgonaute (TtrAgo)-mediated nucleic acid detection system (POC-CANDY) and palm-sized portable detection device "Owl-1" for the simultaneous detection of Ureaplasma urealyticum, Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, human papillomavirus types 16/18 and antibiotic resistance molecular markers [tetM, and gyrA mutation (S91F)]. Using recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), the optimized POC-CANDY could finish the whole detection procedure within 55 min and achieve a limit of detection of 10 copies/μL.
