ELITechGroup, a leading company in sample-to-result molecular diagnostics, and R-Biopharm, a globally active life science company, have announced a worldwide agreement to strengthen their positions in molecular infectious disease testing. Under this agreement, R-Biopharm and ELITechGroup will cooperate in the development, production and marketing of Real-Time PCR reagents. “We are very pleased to have won […]
The failure of drugs such as SSRIs, used to treat depression, can be a result of genetic variations in patients. Variations within the gene that encodes the CYP2C19 enzyme results in extreme differences in the levels of escitalopram achieved in patients. Prescribing the dose of escitalopram based on a patient’s specific genetic constitution would greatly […]
Women diagnosed with breast cancer may benefit from having the molecular subtype of different cells within their tumours identified, argue two researchers. While breast cancer is often treated as a whole, they discuss the growing consensus that cancer cells within a tumour can have multiple origins and respond variably to treatment. The authors advocate for […]
A blood test that measures the presence of heart-specific proteins called troponins is used by emergency clinics to diagnose myocardial infarction in patients with chest pain. For the past few years a newer laboratory method has been used at most hospitals in Sweden that is ten times more sensitive than the conventional troponin test. The […]
Cervical fluid samples gathered during routine Papanicolaou (Pap) tests are the basis of a new screening test for endometrial and ovarian cancers developed by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center. PapSEEK detects mutations in DNA that have been identified for specific cancers sooner. Earlier detection of cancer could lead to earlier treatment and […]
EKF Diagnostics announces that its Stanbio Chemistry Procalcitonin (PCT) LiquiColor® assay has been FDA cleared and validated for use on Beckman AU 480, 680 and 5800 clinical chemistry analysers. EKF is pleased to confirm the immediate availability of a user-defined application (UDA) for running this 10-minute test for bacterial infection and sepsis on these Beckman […]
The two most common types of inflammatory bowel diseases are ulcerous colitis and Crohn’s disease. These are diagnosed by camera inside the gut, and by investigating small samples of the gut (biopsies). The diagnosis is often difficult, and if the wrong diagnosis is made, there may be severe consequences for the patients, because the treatments […]
A discovery sheds light on how cancerous cells differ from healthy ones, and could lead to the development of new strategies for therapeutic intervention for difficult-to-treat cancers in the future. An international team of investigators found a “stop sign”—a modified protein researchers named a PIP-stop—inside cells that are overused by cancerous cells that effectively prevents […]
Researchers at Rice University and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have refined and, for the first time, run in vivo tests of a method that may allow nanotube-based probes to locate specific tumours in the body. Their ability to pinpoint tumours with sub-millimetre accuracy could eventually improve early detection and treatment of […]
A group of researchers from Mayo Clinic and Exact Sciences Corporation have completed a phase II study comparing a set of DNA markers to alpha fetoprotein as a method to test for liver cancer. “We currently test for liver cancer using ultrasound and a blood protein marker called alpha fetoprotein,” says John Kisiel, M.D., a […]
