Transmission Patterns of Co-Circulation of Omicron Sub-Lineages in Hong Kong SAR, China, a City with Rigorous Social Distancing Measures, in 2022
Chow N, Long T, Lee L, Wong I, Lee A, Tam W, et al.
Viruses . 2024 Jun; 16(6). PMID: 38932272
Objective: This study aimed to characterize the changing landscape of circulating SARS-CoV-2 lineages in the local community of Hong Kong throughout 2022. We examined how adjustments to quarantine arrangements influenced...

The clinical utility of Nanopore 16S rRNA gene sequencing for direct bacterial identification in normally sterile body fluids
Lao H, Wong L, Hui Y, Ng T, Chan C, Lo H, et al.
Front Microbiol . 2024 Jan; 14:1324494. PMID: 38264489
The prolonged incubation period of traditional culture methods leads to a delay in diagnosing invasive infections. Nanopore 16S rRNA gene sequencing (Nanopore 16S) offers a potential rapid diagnostic approach for...

The Clinical Utility of Two High-Throughput 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing Workflows for Taxonomic Assignment of Unidentifiable Bacterial Pathogens in Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry
Lao H, Ng T, Wong R, Wong C, Lee L, Wong D, et al.
J Clin Microbiol . 2021 Nov; 60(1):e0176921. PMID: 34788113
Bacterial pathogens that cannot be identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) are occasionally encountered in clinical laboratories. The 16S rRNA gene is often used...

A low-cost TaqMan minor groove binder probe-based one-step RT-qPCR assay for rapid identification of N501Y variants of SARS-CoV-2
Chan C, Leung J, Lee L, Lo H, Wong E, Wong D, et al.
J Virol Methods . 2021 Oct; 299:114333. PMID: 34656702
The increasing prevalence of N501Y variants of SARS-CoV-2 has kindled global concern due to their enhanced transmissibility. Genome sequencing is the gold standard method to identify the emerging variants of...

Aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2 due to the chimney effect in two high-rise housing drainage stacks
Wang Q, Li Y, Lung D, Chan P, Dung C, Jia W, et al.
J Hazard Mater . 2021 Aug; 421:126799. PMID: 34396958
Stack aerosols are generated within vertical building drainage stacks during the discharge of wastewater containing feces and exhaled mucus from toilets and washbasins. Fifteen stack aerosol-related outbreaks of coronavirus disease...

Viral MicroRNAs Encoded by Nucleocapsid Gene of SARS-CoV-2 Are Detected during Infection, and Targeting Metabolic Pathways in Host Cells
Meng F, Siu G, Mok B, Sun J, Fung K, Lam J, et al.
Cells . 2021 Aug; 10(7). PMID: 34359932
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression that may be used to identify the pathological pathways influenced by disease and cellular interactions. Viral miRNAs (v-miRNAs) encoded by both DNA...
