Rapid identification of CRISPR-Cas system PAMs
06 April, 2016CRISPR-Cas systems are the latest generation of genetic tools, but these tools require researchers to identify the protospacer-adjacent motifs (PAMs) that unlock each system's functionality.
Cancer detection with one drop of blood
27 November, 2015Researchers have developed an RNA test of blood platelets that can be used to detect cancer. By analysing a sample equivalent to one drop of blood, they were able to identify, classify and pinpoint the location of the cancer with impressive accuracy.
A mini DNA sequencer
20 October, 2015Oxford Nanopore Technologies has developed the MinION, a handheld device that works by detecting individual DNA bases that pass through a nanopore.
Promega multiplex assay approved by FBI
