Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Wuhan, China, it has rapidly spread across many other countries. While majority patients were considered mild, critically ill involving respiratory failure and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome are not uncommon, which could result death. We hypothesized that cytokine storm is associated with severe outcome. enrolled 102 COVID-19 who admitted to Renmin Hospital (Wuhan, China). All classified into moderate, critical groups...

Summary Background 2019-Novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreaks create challenges for hospital laboratories because thousands of samples must be evaluated each day. Sample types, interpretation methods, and corresponding laboratory standards established. The possibility other infections should assessed to provide a basis clinical classification, isolation, treatment. Accordingly, in the present study, we testing methods 2019-nCoV co-infections. Methods We used fluorescence-based quantitative...

Isolation, release and culture of rare circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may, if implemented, promote the progress individualized anti-tumor therapies. To realize CTCs without disruption their viability for further analysis, we designed an effective photocontrolled CTC capture/release system by combination photochemistry immunomagnetic separation. 7-Aminocoumarin was synthesized as phototrigger to bridge connection between anti-EpCAM antibody magnetic beads. The coumarin moieties produced...
