Nanolock Sensor Detects Cancer Driver Mutation
Researchers have developed an accurate and sensitive “nanolock-nanopore” method that successfully diagnosed a known cancer driver mutation with results at the level of single DNA molecules in tumor tissues of thyroid cancer patients. The method can be adapted to detect a broad spectrum of both transversion and transition mutations, with applications from early diagnostics to individualized targeted therapy and monitoring.

Alzheimer's Disease Biomarker Assay Heading for IVD Status
A clinical diagnostic kit that measures the concentration of the Alzheimer's disease blood biomarker APOEepsilon4 was unveiled at the Alzheimer’s Association Conference held in London, United Kingdom, from July 16-20, 2017. More...24 Jul 2017
Blood Test Developed to Detect Rare Neurological Disease
A diagnostic blood test has been developed for a rare but treatable condition called De Vivo disease. Compared with current diagnostic tests that use an invasive procedure (lumbar puncture) or complex DNA analysis, this new test, will be able to screen for the condition rapidly, within 48 hours and with ease in both adults and children.

Heart Failure Associated with Depleted Intestinal Microbiota
It has long been known that heart failure and gut health are linked. The gut has a worse blood supply in instances of heart failure; the intestinal wall is thicker and more permeable, whereby bacteria and bacterial components may find their way into the blood. More...18 Jul 2017
Ultra-Early Inflammatory Biomarker Identified for TBI
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is set to become the leading cause of neurological disability across all age groups. Currently, no reliable biomarkers exist to help diagnose the severity of TBI to identify patients who are at risk of developing secondary injuries. More...18 Jul 2017
