Rapid Antigenic Diagnostic Test Validated for Ebola Virus Disease
Hemorrhagic fever outbreaks are difficult to diagnose and control in part because of a lack of low-cost and easily accessible diagnostic structures in countries where etiologic agents are present. Initial clinical symptoms are common and shared with other endemic diseases such as malaria or typhoid fever. More...13 Feb 2020
CDC Provides Test Protocol for Novel Coronavirus
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Atlanta GA, USA) has publicly posted its assay for novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV and is now developing the test into kits. The CDC diagnostic test is a reverse transcriptase real-time PCR (rRT-PCR) assay developed for respiratory and blood serum samples. The protocol to make the assay has been made publicly available.

Lung Cancer Liquid Biopsy Guides MRD-Directed Adjuvant Therapy
Minimal residual disease (MRD) is the name given to small numbers of leukemic cells (cancer cells from the bone marrow) that remain in the person during treatment or after treatment when the patient is in remission or have no symptoms or signs of disease. More...11 Feb 2020
Single-Cell Sequencing Identifies Breast Cancer Risk
Women harboring heterozygous germline mutations of BRCA2 have a 50% to 80% risk of developing breast cancer, yet the pathogenesis of these cancers is poorly understood. Breast cancers arising in women who inherit heterozygous mutations in BRCA2 are associated with a high prevalence of genomic alterations and aggressive clinical behavior. More...10 Feb 2020
Novel Enrichment Technology Indicates High Performance for Multi-Cancer Detection
Breast, lung, pancreatic, and prostate cancer make up 41% of the cancer incidence in the USA. Early detection and a deep understanding of each cancer remain critical for implementing the highest quality of care. More...10 Feb 2020
