Developing a customized approach for strengthening tuberculosis laboratory quality management systems toward accreditation
Published in early 2017, this paper by Albert et al. discusses the development process of an accreditation program — the Strengthening Tuberculosis Laboratory Management Toward Accreditation or TB SLMTA — dedicated to better implementation of quality management systems (QMS) in tuberculosis laboratories around the world. The authors discuss the development of the curriculum, accreditation tools, and roll-out across 10 countries and 37 laboratories. They conclude that the training and mentoring program is increasingly vital for tuberculosis labs, "building a foundation toward further quality improvement toward achieving accreditation ... on the African continent and beyond."

Dereplication is a chemical screening process of separation and purification that eliminates known and studied constituents, leaving other novel metabolites for future study. This is an important part of pharmaceutical and natural product development, requiring appropriate data management and retrieval for researchers around the world. However, Scotti et al. found a lack of secondary metabolite databases that met their needs. Noting a need for complex searches, structure management, visualizations, and taxonomic rank in one package, they developed SistematX, "a modern and innovative web interface." They conclude the end result is a system that "provides a wealth of useful information for the scientific community about natural products, highlighting the location of species from which the compounds were isolated."
