Diseases Diagnosed by Isolating Biomarkers in Tears
Current clinical studies pose significant challenges in distinguishing disease subtypes with accurate molecular signatures and tracking the disease progression in a non-invasive way. Identifying molecular clues in samples from patients, such as specific proteins or genes from vesicular structures called exosomes, could improve the accuracy of diagnoses. More...25 Jul 2022
Biomolecule Detection Technology to Make Lab-on-a-Chip Devices Smaller, Faster
Scientists have demonstrated an important advance in using graphene for electrokinetic biosample processing and analysis that could allow lab-on-a-chip devices to become smaller and achieve results faster. More...20 Jul 2022
Different Kits and PCR Methods Evaluated for Malaria Diagnosis
Malaria is an infectious disease considered as one of the biggest causes of mortality in endemic areas. This life-threatening disease needs to be quickly diagnosed and treated. The standard diagnostic tools are thick blood smears microscopy and immuno-chromatographic rapid diagnostic tests. More...13 Jul 2022
Simple Colorimetric Assay Determines Human Mercaptalbumin Concentration
Human serum albumin (HAS) can take on two forms, mercaptalbumin (HMA) or non-mercaptalbumin (HNA), depending on the redox status of its Cys34. The ratio of HMA and HNA is considered to be a novel biomarker of oxidative stress. More...30 Jun 2022
