Today's Hantavirus Claims and Insights

La microbiologia clínica ha viscut en els darrers anys una profunda revolució tecnològica que ha transformat el diagnòstic microbiològic. La incorporació del MALDI-TOF permet identificar microorganismes de manera ràpida i precisa, mentre que l’expansió de la biologia molecular i la seqüenciació massiva n’ha ampliat notablement la capacitat de detecció, fins i tot sense una orientació prèvia. Alhora, l’anàlisi filogènica ha redefinit la taxonomia microbiana en aportar una classificació genotípica més robusta i una visió evolutiva de la parasitosi.
