Lab testing is a procedure in which a health care provider takes a sample of your blood, urine, other bodily fluid, or body tissue to get information about your health. It is done in the laboratory where the appropriate equipment, supplies, and certified expertise are available.
Prokaryotic DNA contains three types of methylation: N6-methyladenine, N4-methylcytosine and 5-methylcytosine. The lack of tools to analyse the frequency and distribution of methylated resid...
Human chromosome 19q13.4 contains genes encoding killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR). The region has certain properties such as single nucleotide variation, structural variation,...
As a response to various inflammatory stimuli, neutrophils and macrophages expel a mixture of their nuclear and granular elements in the form of extracellular traps (ETs). These web-like sub...
The statement by Dimitri Ivanovsky in 1882 that "the sap of leaves infected with tobacco mosaic disease retains its infectious properties even after filtration through Chamberland filte...
Traditionally, virology has been focused in studying the pathogenic effect of viruses. In the recent years, however, this perception is changing and viruses are being studied as mutualistic...
Most currently used conventional influenza vaccines are based on 1940s technology. Advances in immunogen design and vaccine delivery emerging over the last decade open novel opportunities fo...
The recent outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 underscores the need for understanding the evolutionary processes that drive the emergence and adaptation of zoonotic viruses in humans. Here, we show that...
Over the past five years there has been an explosion of research the deep learning field. Companies like Google, Facebook, and OpenAI have created neural networks that are significantly more...
While viral fusion proteins are highly desirable for subunit vaccine generation, their inherent metastable nature complicates implementation and development. We have harnessed the structural...
Background: Haemophilus influenzae is the causative agent of multiple human disease conditions among multiple sites in the human body. Underlying genetic mechanisms are elusive, particularly...
The receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein mediates viral attachment to ACE2 receptor, and is a major determinant of host range and a dominant target of neutraliz...
While the frequency of pandemic threats seems to be increasing, we fortunately have new tools and technologies to make vaccines with more precision and speed and that support a more proactiv...
Influenza infections are initiated by just a handful of virions infecting a handful of cells, so it is important to understand what happens in single infected cells. I will describe work tha...
Seasonal and pandemic influenza virus infections can cause significant disease worldwide. Current vaccines only provide limited, short-lived protection, and antigenic drift/shift in the hema...
This webinar covers various fundamental aspects of performing a successful digital PCR (dPCR) assay on the QIAcuity instruments. An essential parameter to consider in designing a dPCR assay...
Unique physical, chemical, and optical phenomena arise when materials are confined to the nanoscale. We are accustomed to making observations for the behavior of living systems on a macrosco...
Carbon dioxide emissions, known to exacerbate climate change, have been increasing rapidly over the past century. One strategy to alleviate this issue is carbon capture and utilization (CCU)...
Cytokine storm is suspected of producing the overzealous immune response driving the severe cardiopulmonary complications that fuel high morbidity and mortality rates in certain COVID-19 inf...
The need for high-throughput laboratory testing to identify SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals has reached nearly unprecedented levels. This demand has also led to supply chain issues that have...
Genomic imbalances or copy number variations (CNVs) are a major cause of pregnancy losses, fetal anomalies identified during prenatal period, congenital defects in newborn, dysmorphology and...
Lung cancer management has changed over the last few years with several actionable targets being recognised and mandated in the optimal management of these patients. The biomarker ordering p...
NGS is still perceived as a complex, hard to implement and validate method that requires highly experienced people. Outsourcing next-generation sequencing (NGS) testing could be an option to...
Learn about how the new Ion Torrent Genexus System is addressing key challenges to next-generation sequencing (NGS) implementation, like hands-on time, time-to-result, user expertise, and af...
2020 started as a year of inspired regulatory improvements to increase the safety and quality of food in the US. Due to recent pandemic effects, the expected regulatory trends have evolved....
