The latest advances in genome sequencing indicate proteases occur naturally in all organisms and account for about 2% of the human genome and 1–5% of genomes of infectious organisms. The human genome ...

Seed amplification assays, those PCR-like reactions for toxic misfolded proteins, are starting to look pretty good. In the May Lancet Neurology, scientists led by Andrew Siderowf, University of ...

Electrophoretic mobility shift assay, sometimes referred to as EMSA, is a sensitive method for investigating nucleic acid-protein binding. This is based on gel electrophoresis and is based on the ...

The recurrence score based on the 21-gene breast-cancer assay has been clinically useful in predicting a chemotherapy benefit in hormone-receptor–positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 ...

Findings from a study on the utility of ultrasensitive circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a predictive biomarker for patients ...

Microbial assays are a technique to assess a compound’s potency or concentration. This is carried out by exposing microorganisms to the compound and determining its effect on them. Microbial assays ...

The recurrence score based on the 21-gene breast cancer assay predicts chemotherapy benefit if it is high and a low risk of recurrence in the absence of chemotherapy if it is low; however, there is ...

In our best practices blog, we explore how lateral flow assay design affects test performance. Read on to gain a deeper understanding of the development process, enabling you to streamline the ...

GVA is a high throughput cell viability assay for microbiology. Akin to the classic CFU assay, GVA measures the number of viable microbes in a sample based on counting discrete colonies. The classic ...

Genomics has launched the next generation of its Chromium Flex assay, featuring automation compatible plate-based multiplexing for scalable single cell analysis.
