MALDI-TOF-MS Analysis Identifies Ovarian Cancer Patterns

Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the leading causes of death among all gynecological malignancies and as there are no early specific symptoms, OC is diagnosed in advanced clinical stages in more than 70% cases when, despite appropriate treatment, five-year survival rate drops to 30%. More...

Mass Spectrometry Detection for the Masses

Researchers are developing a plasma-based technology to enable generalized use of mass spectrometry (MS) with new instruments that can analyze a much broader range of molecular species than current technology allows. More...

Opioid-Related Deaths Possibly Prevented By Gene Testing

More than 17,500 Americans died in 2015 from prescription opioid overdoses, which are more than quadruple the amount of people who died from this cause in 1999, but it is not just abuse of these medications that can lead to overdoses. More...

Combined Molecular Test Distinguishes Benign Pancreatic Lesions

When performed in tandem, two molecular biology laboratory tests distinguish, with near certainty, pancreatic lesions that mimic early signs of cancer but are completely benign. Serous cystic neoplasms (SCNs) have no malignant potential, but can mimic the following premalignant mucinous cystic lesions: mucinous cystic neoplasm and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). More...

Thermo Clinical Analyzer Provides Range of Laboratory Tests

A new mass spectrometry-based clinical analyzer has been introduced marking a potentially significant development in mass spectrometry evolution as a clinical technology. The analyzer brings together the ease of use of clinical analyzers with the selectivity and sensitivity of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). More...

Amine Biomarkers Identify Risk of Alzheimer's Disease

The identification of novel biomarkers associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) could provide key biological insights and permit targeted preclinical prevention. Circulating metabolites associated with incident dementia and AD has been investigated using metabolomics. More...
