A team of researchers have developed an easy-to-use colorimetric assay for the detection of food contaminated with salmonella. The assay is based on a novel nucleic acid probe that is cleaved by an ...

New molecule halts mitochondrial DNA loss before it triggers inflammation. When environmental stress harms DNA, it can set off a cascade of failures linked to heart conditions, neurodegeneration and ...

BHQnova ™ Probes are double-quenched hydrolysis probes with enhanced quenching and greater signal-to-noise ratio for long probes (>25 bases). Such probes consist of a 5' fluorophore dye, a 3' Black ...

New live-cell DNA damage sensor lets scientists watch repair unfold in real time, potentially opening doors for cancer and aging research.

Gathering genetic material from treetops in tropical rainforests would be a near-impossible task to perform safely by hand. That's why scientists have developed a system that allows a drone to do the ...

In a quiet lab at Utrecht University, researchers have built a tool that lets you watch one of life’s most serious crises ...
