Abstract: The present invention concerns an in vitro method for diagnosing invasive candidiasis (IC) in a subject which comprises detecting the presence of a Candida glycan and detecting the presence of antibody directed against a protein selected from the group consisting of fructose bisphosphate aldolase (Fba1), enolase 1 (Eno1), heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), hyphal wall protein (Hwp1), and mannoprotein 65 (Mp65) in a blood, plasma or serum sample of the subject. The invention also relates to a method of determining a suitable treatment regimen for a patient and to a kit for implanting the methods described herein.

Abstract: A tool for handling and grouping products aligned one behind another and separated by a given spacing. The tool has a row of supports, each able to carry a grasping element for grasping a product, the supports mounted to move on a rail, each support connected to an adjacent support by an attachment. The attachment includes a rod that connects two adjacent supports and a member for locking the position of at least one of the two adjacent supports on the rod. The locking member can be deactivated to adjust the distance between two supports to the distance between two products. The mechanism for grouping together includes at least one cylinder, the cylinder including a body fixed on a support and a rod.

Abstract: The invention relates in particular to a tool (1) for handling and grouping together products which are aligned one behind another and which are separated by a given spacing, said tool (1) comprising a row of supports (2) which are each able to carry a grasping element (5) for grasping a product, the supports (2) being mounted such as to be able to move on at least one rail (3,4), each support (2) being connected to an adjacent support (2) by attachment means (10). The attachment means (10) each comprise a rod (11) that connects two adjacent supports (2) and also a member (12) for locking the position of at least one of the two adjacent supports (2) on the rod (11), it being possible to deactivate the locking member (12) in order to adjust the distance between two supports (2) to said distance between two products.
