3D-Printed Device Detects Biomarkers of Preterm Birth
Preterm birth (PTB), defined as birth before the 37th week of gestation, is the leading complication of pregnancy and it affects about 1 in 10 pregnancies worldwide. Preterm infants can suffer complications such as neurological, respiratory and cardiac problems and, in some cases, even death. More...06 Jun 2019
Reagent Strips Test Analyzed for CSF in Neurological Disorders
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination is often performed in emergency to obtain diagnostic information of various life threatening conditions such as meningitis, subarachnoid hemorrhage, demyelinating diseases or carcinomas. More...05 Jun 2019
Cysteine-Rich 61 Biomarker Reflects RA Disease Activity
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease that causes progressive articular damage, functional loss, and comorbidity. Until now, the exact pathological processes involved in RA remain incompletely understood. More...05 Jun 2019
Bioimpedance Spectroscopy Preferred for Post-Breast Surgery Lymphedema Risk
Interim results from a study that compared bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) to the classical tape measure for assessing a woman’s risk for developing lymphedema after breast cancer surgery strongly suggested that BIS was the preferred method. More...04 Jun 2019
Novel Stress Biomarker Measurement Method Uses UV Range
A recent paper described a novel label-free method for quantitative detection of human performance “stress” biomarkers in different body fluids that is based on optical absorbance of biomarkers in the ultraviolet (UV) range of the spectrum. More...04 Jun 2019
