This study identifies two potent nanobodies targeting the conserved S2 region of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein that resist viral escape and reduce viral load in a hamster model.

This study shows Amphotericin B and Nystatin enhance SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro by promoting viral entry, suggesting they should not be used in active COVID-19 cases.

The paper develops an amplicon-based sequencing method for rapid MERS-CoV genotyping and evaluates it alongside metagenomic analysis to study the microbiome in MERS patients.

The paper assesses cross-talk in multiplex Nanopore MinION sequencing and finds 0.056% of reads are misassigned due to chimeric reads.

This paper describes a method to sequence Zika and other virus genomes directly from clinical samples using multiplex PCR and portable sequencing technologies, achieving complete genomes in 1-2 days.
