Biological assays, or bioassays, are laboratory analyses that measure the concentration of a substance. Living organisms or cells are exposed to increasing concentrations of a test substance in order to determine the impact. Biological assays are often used to access the toxicity of a compound.
Free 25OH Vitamin D has received increasing attention over the last four years. More and more studies support the importance of free 25OH Vitamin D, suggesting that this fraction of 25OH Vita...
Transcriptional profiling of the tumor microenvironment can lead to insights about the interaction between the tumor and immune system. This facilitates investigation of immune evasion mechan...
Acute and chronic pain are often managed with drug therapy, which may include extended use of drug classes such as opioids and benzodiazepines. Pain does not go away, and may intensify...
This session will review and describe the basic steps of a biosafety risk assessment for clinical laboratories. The risk of exposure to infectious agents exists in every clinical labora...
