Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a new method for diagnosing lung cancer: a simple, fast, low-cost blood test that does not require DNA sequencing. The method identifies a chemical ...

A combined team of engineers from Jiangsu University and Harvard University used a non-destructive, light diffraction fingerprint technique to detect viral infections in cells. Their paper is ...

Cancer cells have fewer heavy hydrogen atoms in their lipids as compared to healthy cells. The finding unearths a potential geochemical tool for cancer diagnosis in the future. As the daughter of a ...

By watching as fingerprints developed on fetal mice (and human cells in a petri dish), the researchers could see that ridges developed and worked against one another in three different parts of the ...

Technology that could allow criminals to be identified from a single cell left at a crime scene decades earlier has been demonstrated in Sydney, Australia. The single cell DNA fingerprinting technique ...
