A new study by UC San Francisco scientists shows that the proportion of normal cells, especially immune cells, intermixed with cancerous cells in a given tissue sample may significantly skew the ...

A few years ago, Saurabh Chitnis, a synthetic chemist at Dalhousie University, did some math that spurred a radical decision. He calculated what it was costing him to send lab-made compounds away for ...

Separating single cells from their sample matrix without compromising cell integrity is a balancing act. Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is very sensitive to degradation caused during sample ...

Thermo Scientific’s novel Acclaro™ Sample Intelligence technology is at the core of the NanoDrop One instrument, enabling the provision of comprehensive sample quality information by identifying ...

As scientists, we can be very uncomfortable with the concept of “good enough”. It feels contrary to everything that we are trained to do—to keep meticulous notes and take our time testing and ...

Modern systems structural biology is faced with enormous challenges in deciphering the complexity of interconnected macromolecular networks and how these networks mediate molecular-level communication ...

All food products should be of high quality and purity, not only for consumer safety, but also to ensure product authenticity and label accuracy. This is especially significant for olive oils, which ...

The proportion of normal cells, especially immune cells, intermixed with cancerous cells in a given tissue sample may significantly skew the results of genetic analyses and other tests performed both ...
