Novel Biosensor Selectively Measures Cancer Patient p53 Autoantibodies

A team of Spanish cancer researchers has developed a disposable electrochemical biosensor for the specific and sensitive determination of p53-specific autoantibodies, which are biomarkers for certain types of cancers with p53 gene mutations. More...

A First: Using Graphene to Detect Cancer Cells

Using Raman spectroscopy in developing a new technology that could improve diagnosis and monitoring of cancer, researchers have, for the first time, successfully used graphene to distinguish cancer from healthy cells. The system could potentially also be used to distinguish between various other cell types or cell activities. More...
