2011-05-11 12:15 Onödig medicinering med antibiotika kan leda till antibiotikaresistens. BIO-X projektet ska utveckla ett test baserat på en markör i blod, för att exakt kunna skilja infektioner orsakade av bakterier från dem orsakade av virus. BIO-X överbryggar gapet mellan forskares upptäckt och den praktiska tillämpningen genom projektplaner, finansiering, uppföljning och kontaktnät.
2011-05-11 12:15 A research team has found a marker in the blood that clearly shows whether the patient has an infection caused by bacteria. The discovery creates the conditions for a quick and reliable diagnostic test that distinguishes a bacterial infection from a virus infection. One benefit can be reduced unnecessary use of antibiotics.
