Abstract

Recent successful syntheses of monodispersed magnetic nanoparticles have offered a unique opportunity to control and probe biological interactions using magnetic force. This paper highlights a general strategy to generate biofunctional magnetic nanoparticles, illustrates applications for these nanoparticles in protein separation and pathogen detection, and analyzes the high sensitivity and high selectivity achieved by this system.

Infectious diseases epidemiology.

In this glossary the authors have reviewed old and new terms contemporarily used in the infectious disease epidemiology. Many of these concepts were established throughout the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century (classic terms), however, the meanings of old terms have been revised and new terms are continually being added. This glossary has therefore reviewed the classic and the more recently established terminology defining the most relevant terms contemporarily used in this field.

[Infection in liver transplant recipients].

Despite the advances in liver transplantation, infection continues to be a major problem, with an incidence greater than that observed in other solid organ transplantations. The risk of infection is largely determined by the patient's preoperative condition, operative factors, and the status of immunosuppression. Here we describe the current understanding of bacterial, viral, and fungal infection in patients who underwent liver transplantation.
