Enhanced Raman techniques for infection diagnostics
Hanrahan, Niall; Lister, Adam; Highmore, Callum; Rajith, Leena; Avershina, Ekaterina; Ali, Jawad; Ahmad, Rafi; Webb, Jeremy; Mahajan, Sumeet (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In this paper we describe our recent work in multi-excitation surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (MX-SERS), and its application for robust strain-level bacteria identification. The development of MX-SERS follows directly ... -
Increased growth temperature and vitamin B12 supplementation reduces the lag time for rapid pathogen identification in BHI agar and blood cultures
Ali, Jawad; Joshi, Mukund; Ahmadi, Asal; Strætkvern, Knut Olav; Ahmad, Rafi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: The rapid diagnostics of pathogens is essential to prescribe appropriate and early antibiotic therapy. The current methods for pathogen detection require the bacteria to grow in a culture medium, which is ... -
Investigating the potential of Nanopore sequencing and Raman spectroscopy for rapid diagnosis of sepsis
Ali, Jawad (Ph.d.-avhandlinger i anvendt økologi og bioteknologi;42, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Bakterielle patogener kan forårsake livstruende infeksjoner, inkludert blodbaneinfeksjoner (BSI) og sepsis. Rask identifikasjon av patogenet og dets antibiotikaresistens eller følsomhet er avgjørende for effektiv behandling ... -
Short turnaround time of seven to nine hours from sample collection until informed decision for sepsis treatment using nanopore sequencing
Ali, Jawad; Johansen, Wenche; Ahmad, Rafi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Bloodstream infections (BSIs) and sepsis are major health problems, annually claiming millions of lives. Traditional blood culture techniques, employed to identify sepsis-causing pathogens and assess antibiotic susceptibility, ...
