Blood Test Could Detect Alzheimer's 10 Years Before Symptoms Show

Early diagnosis of Alzheimer disease can enable the right treatment to be started without delay. Now, a new study on an inherited form of Alzheimer disease has shown that a protein called GFAP is a potential biomarker for very early stages of the disease and could allow for its earlier detection.

Rapid Diagnostic Test Uses Light to Detect Malaria without Blood Samples

Current rapid malaria tests involve applying a blood sample to a testing strip that can detect the presence of malaria-causing plasmodium parasites in red blood cells. Now, scientists have developed a hand-held screening device that can scan a patient’s arm or finger to detect the presence of malaria, eliminating the need to draw blood. More...
