] Role of Rapid Tests (POCT) in the Diagnosis of SARS-VOC-2, Causal Agent of COVID-19Papel de las pruebas rápidas (POCT) en el diagnóstico del SARS-COV-2, agente causal de COVID-19
(Universidad Colegio Mayor de Cundinamarca, 2020-09-25)
The gold test to detect SARS-CoV-2, the etiologic agent that leads to the pandemic of atypical pneumonia (COVID 2019) that first appeared in Wuhan City, Hubei Province of China in December 2019 (1), is the RT-qPCR. The standard protocol involves reverse transcription of SARS-CoV-2 RNA into complementary DNA strands (cDNA), followed by the amplification of cDNA specific regions, a procedure that takes several hours to ...

(Universidad Colegio Mayor de Cundinamarca, 2020-09-25)
On December 31, 2019, Wuhan Municipal Health Commission (Hubei Province, China) reports on an unusual outbreak of pneumonia cases in the city. Subsequently it is determined that it is a new coronavirus initially designated as 2019-nCoV and later, SARS-CoV-2. SARS-CoV-2 infects and replicates in pneumocytes and macrophages of the respiratory system specifically in the lung parenchyma where the ACE-2 cell receptor resides. ...
Pneumocystis jirovecii and SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19Pneumocystis jirovecii y SARS-CoV-2; COVID-19
(Universidad Colegio Mayor de Cundinamarca, 2020-09-25)
Pneumocystis jirovecii, is an opportunistic fungal agent that causes pneumonia (pneumocistosis) that can be fatal in people with immunocomprome status, including HIV patients with CD4+ T lymphocyte count < 200 cels/mm3 and in patients immunocompromised by other aetiologies such as solid organ transplants and cancer, among others. Many people may be healthy carriers of this etiological agent and act as a reservoir ...
