Biological quality evaluation of samples stored in biobank of Pasteur Institute of Côte d'Ivoire : case of influenza in nasopharyngeal and meningococcal in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples
Abstract:The preservation and use of biological samples for therapy, diagnosis and research have been common practice for a long time. To maintain the stability of biomolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins) contained in the samples stored at the biobank of Pasteur Institute of Côte d'Ivoire, we evaluated the quality of the conservation of influenza nasopharyngeal and meningococcal CSF samples. Two (2) samples were chosen for this evaluation, namely Influenza A nasopharyngeal samples and Streptococcus pneumoniae CSF samples. Aft… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
