Scientists from the A*STAR Genome Institute of Singapore (A*STAR GIS) have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI)-based method called "Fragle" that makes tracking cancer easier and faster using ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has developed an ultrasensitive immunoassay-based analytical platform that can detect and quantify trace amounts of "Small Excised Damaged DNA ...

Definition: DNA amplification is the laboratory process of making many copies of a selected DNA sequence from a very small starting amount. It allows DNA that would otherwise be too scarce to detect ...

A new DNA synthesis method that relies on temperature rather than the endless replacement of reagents and molecular building blocks could prove a vital innovation in the field of biocomputing. A ...

Researchers at Nagoya University and Gifu University in Japan have developed a silver nanoparticle technique that precisely cuts DNA and creates much longer "sticky ends," the overhanging sequences ...

Existing gene-editing technologies have led to significant advances in both medicine and food production. However, momentum appears to be slowing, particularly in health applications, as early hype is ...

The genes that could help the world's crops survive drought, heat, and disease probably already exist. But much of this genetic diversity remains hidden within ancient plant varieties and forgotten ...

A cancer cell can leave traces of itself in the bloodstream even when doctors cannot directly see the tumor. Japanese ...

Emerging methods are improving the ability to identify even highly degraded human remains. By Damien Cave Reporting from Hanoi, Vietnam The world is facing an abundance of tragic events that produce ...
