Nanophotonics, and more specifically plasmonics, provides a rich toolbox for biomolecular sensing, since the engineered metasurfaces can enhance light–matter interactions to unprecedented levels. So ...

Microarrays permit the analysis of gene expression, DNA sequence variation, protein levels, tissues, cells and other biological and chemical molecules in a massively parallel format. Robust microarray ...

The first study of the use of microarray patches to vaccinate children has shown that the method is safe and induces strong immune responses. The phase 1/2 randomized trial compared results from the ...

Reviewed by Dr. Tomislav Meštrović, MD, Ph.D. The microarray is a recently developed technology used in cancer research and in the pharmacological treatment of other diseases such as oral lesions. In ...

A survey of scientists developing bioprocesses found efficiency to be the top concern, with pressure growing each year to “produce more, do it more quickly, and do so with fewer resources.” 1 Yet, ...

Reviewed by Dr. Tomislav Meštrović, MD, Ph.D. Microarray or biochip is a lab-oriented microscope slide that is usually made of glass, silicon chip, or nylon membrane. It is a 2D array (sometimes 3D) ...

Although the superiority of expression-based biomarkers, as compared with traditional clinical staging, has been disputed, 33 a nationwide clinical trial is under way in the Netherlands in which ...

The clinical study aims to evaluate a vaccine for avian influenza A (H7N9) delivered by Vaxxas’ high-density microarray patch (HD-MAP), and is funded by the United States government as a potential ...

The Microarray Innovations in Leukemia study assessed the clinical utility of gene expression profiling as a single test to subtype leukemias into conventional categories of myeloid and lymphoid ...

Scientists at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) have developed a new microarray-based diagnostic platform that can help close vaccination gaps and quickly detect ...

Researchers have created a two-stage acne patch with tiny arrowhead-shaped spikes that deliver healing compounds directly under the skin. Trials showed pimples vanished in seven days, and the ...
