About Advanced Molecular Detection Clips

Clips are selected weekly from a variety of sources, including PubMed, journal tables of contents, and online media. Special emphasis is given to the use of next-generation genetic sequencing in infectious disease public health surveillance, investigation, and development of new diagnostics and interventions. The collection is not comprehensive but aims to capture highlights, while surveying a wide range of topics. CDC-authored articles are flagged.

Spotlight

Notes from the Field: Hepatitis C Outbreak in a Dialysis Clinic - Tennessee, 2014. Quasispecies (HCV intra-genotype variants) analysis was performed from serum specimens collected from all nine patients found to be HCV positive. Patients A, B, and C were infected with genotype 1a; less than 5% nucleotide variation among intra-host HCV sequences was detected among the three patients, suggesting epidemiologic linkage of these infections (Figure).
