Lipid-ELISA Improves Detection of Potential PD Biomarker
Researchers have developed a novel diagnostic approach for Parkinson’s Disease (PD), which enabled assaying of total alpha-synuclein in whole blood cells (WBC), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and saliva. The new ELISA assay could lead to early diagnosis and improved monitoring of PD progression and patient response to therapy. More...31 Jul 2017
Immunoassay Systems Compared for Trisomy Screenings
The biochemical serum markers free β-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCGβ) and pregnancy associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) are used in screening for trisomy 21 (T21), trisomy 18 (T18), and trisomy 13 (T13) during the first trimester. More...25 Jul 2017
Optofluidic Device Quantifies CTCs in Blood
Researchers have developed a portable device that rapidly detects and counts circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood samples. It can help provide early diagnosis and help assess a patient’s level of health with convenient, inexpensive, effective testing for monitoring patients with cancer. More...25 Jul 2017
Portable Device Finds Sepsis Infection Markers
A new portable device can quickly find markers of deadly, unpredictable sepsis infection from a single drop of blood, which is the first to provide rapid, point-of-care measurement of the immune system's response, without any need to process the blood. More...20 Jul 2017
Novel Biomarker Identifies Early Clinical CV Disease
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and the economic, social, and costs associated with treating CAD are very high. The severity of coronary artery lesions has been proven to be associated with the risk of future cardiovascular events. More...19 Jul 2017
CE-Marked Immunoassay Rapidly Detects Infection Biomarkers
CE mark approval has been given for a point-of-care (POC) test for rapid detection of infection in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD), enabling early diagnosis and treatment critical for preventing infection-related damage to the peritoneal membrane. More...17 Jul 2017
