Highly Multiplexed Cell Surface Protein Analyzed Via Flow Cytometry

Modern immunologic studies increasingly requires high-dimensional analyses to understand the complex milieu of cell types that comprise the tissue microenvironments of disease. One of the cornerstones of immunology has been the detailed phenotypic classification of the cellular populations of the immune system. More...

Novel Tool Developed to Detect and Identify Pathogens

Pathogens in clinical or wildlife settings samples of blood or saliva, for example, are particularly challenging to isolate, since they can easily make up less than one one-millionth of a sample, especially in early stages of an infection, when concentrations are still low and detection is most critical for patients. More...

Blood-Based Biomarker Predicts Onset of Symptomatic Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, starting with a preclinical phase of normal cognition lasting approximately two decades. The formal diagnosis of AD dementia, relies on neuropsychological tests further confirmed by brain imaging and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling. More...

Redox Potential Used as a Feasible Marker for Banked Blood Quality

Stored red blood cells (RBCs) may undergo oxidative stress over time, with functional changes affecting oxygen delivery. Central to these changes are oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions and redox potential (RP) that must be maintained for cell function. More...

NanoVelcro Cell Technology Applied in Diagnosis of Pregnancy Complications

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders, including placenta accreta, placenta increta, and placenta percreta, are the consequences of abnormal implantation, or aberrant invasion and adherence of placental trophoblasts into the uterine myometrium. More...
