and 2.2 μg salmon sperm DNA (per 100 ng of probe). After precipitation, the pellet was resuspended in hybridization mix containing 50% formamide, 15% dextran sulphate and 2× SSC. Before ...

[14] The most commonly used HPV tests are based on direct hybridization or DNA-based amplification techniques. Gen-Probe is currently developing the APTIMA HPV Assay, targeting E6/E7 mRNA from 14 ...

The targeting of telomeres offers promise for new cancer therapies, which can be aimed at disrupting the mechanisms that ...

Multiplexed error-robust fluorescence in-situ hybridization (MERFISH ... and the sample was gently transferred to a 2 mL DNA low-bind centrifuge tube containing 50-μL encoding-probe mixture. The ...

DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical energy is ...

A team has unearthed new findings about what happens during the minutes and hours after a cell divides, expanding our understanding of human biology -- and potentially leading to better medicines.

They applied the new method to more than 1,500 European genomes (a person's complete set of DNA) from people who lived primarily during the first millennium AD (year 1 to 1000), encompassing the ...

Americans with European heritage have long been able to pinpoint their ancestry through DNA testing, but it's only in recent years that those with African heritage have been able to trace their ...

A NASA probe ventured closer to the sun than any spacecraft in history on Christmas Eve — and it whirled by at astounding speeds that also made it the fastest thing ever made by humans.

NASA sent its Parker Solar Probe just 3.8 million miles from the surface of the Sun — and it survived. The probe transmitted a signal back to Earth on the night of December 26th, “indicating ...
