Novel Rapid Lateral Flow Assay Measures Ovarian Cancer Biomarker CA125

A radically modified lateral flow immunoassay was able to detect the ovarian cancer biomarker glycosylated CA125 in serum samples and rapidly differentiate epithelial ovarian cancer from benign endometriosis and healthy controls. More...

Quantitative Agglutination Determined on Automatic Hematology Analyzer

The currently available agglutination identification methods are slide methods and test tube methods. Based on the distribution, uniformity and comprehensive changes of non-aggregated cells and agglutinating cells in the liquid, the agglutination degree and strength can be determined by the naked eye. More...

Saliva Test Fast Tracks Heart Attack Diagnosis

 Heart attacks need urgent diagnosis, followed by treatment to restore blood flow to blocked arteries. Diagnosis is based on symptoms (such as chest pain), an electrocardiogram (ECG) and a blood test for cardiac troponin, a protein released into the blood when the heart muscle is injured. More...

Rapid CRISPR/Cas Assay for Diagnosis of Viral Fevers in Low-Tech Environments

Rapid diagnostic tests for Ebola and Lassa fever viruses based on the RNA-targeting CRISPR/Cas13a complex have been tested successfully under field conditions in several African countries. More...

Streamlined Method for Telomere Length Measurement Opens New Cancer Diagnostic Opportunities

In a novel approach to cancer diagnosis, researchers have developed a high-throughput digital real-time PCR method for rapidly measuring the absolute lengths and quantities of individual telomere molecules. More...

Cancer-Associated T Cell Receptors Evaluated for Malignancy Detection

A key goal in oncology is diagnosing cancer early, when it is more treatable. Despite decades of progress, early diagnosis of asymptomatic patients remains a major challenge. Most methods for this involve detecting cancer cells, but a different approach, focused on the body’s immune response. More...
