Automated Fluorescent Microbial Cell Counter Detects Urinary Tract Infection

Urinary tract infections (UTI) accounted for around 400,000 hospitalizations, resulting in an estimated cost burden of approximately USD 2.8 billion in the USA. Between 50% and 60% of adult women will have at least one UTI in their life, and close to 10% of postmenopausal women indicate that they had a UTI in the previous year. More...

Geochemistry Test Identifies Osteoporosis Earlier Than Standard Method

In the USA, around 10 million people have osteoporosis and 44 million have low bone density. Osteoporosis affects the bones of around 22 million people in the EU and about 85% of these people are women. It has a huge financial impact, which will increase as the population ages. Osteoporosis can be treated, but early diagnosis is important. More...
