AMR Surveillance in Africa: Are We There Yet? by Prof Sabiha Essack, Sabiha Y. Essack

“…Data reliability and validity, fidelity of laboratory methods and quality assurance are frequently cited limitations raising concerns on the utility of phenotypic AMR surveillance data for policy and practice action.Genomic AMR surveillance in Africa is limited to discrete research projects at Universities and research institutions that describe the resistome, mobilome, virulome and phylogeny using whole genomic sequencing and open-source bioinformatics tools in the main and genomic surveillance capacity is steadily increasing on the content. …”

Efficiency simulation and coincidence-summing correction for HPGe detector by ZHANG Ruiqin, LI Qi, FAN Yuanqing, ZHAO Yungang, ZHANG Xinjun, JIA Huaimao, NIU Yazhou, LI Ruiying, WANG Shilian

“…BackgroundIn order to enhance the detection sensitivity of HPGe detectors for measuring the low-level activity of radionuclides, samples are usually measured as close to the detector as possible to improve the detection efficiency, which inevitably leads to serious coincidence-summing effects in return and affects the accuracy of measured activity.PurposeThis study aims to conduct efficiency simulation and coincidence-summing correction for HPGe detectors.MethodsFirst of all, the peak efficiency of the HPGe detector was simulated by Geant4 and the internal geometry of the HPGe detector was optimized by comparing the simulated results with the experimental results of the mixed standard calibration source. …”
