DNA strand displacement circuits are inching closer to becoming cellular machines. Scientists are finding ways to make these programmable nanodevices stable and functional inside living cells. If ...

In the late nineteenth century, a German biochemist found the nucleic acids, long-chain polymers of nucleotides ... giving two forms: RNA and DNA. In 1943, American Oswald Avery proved that ...

Me (ME) is bankrupt, its CEO is out, and 15 million people’s genetic data might soon be sold off to whoever’s willing to pay. Now, a swarm ...

PCR, or Polymerase Chain Reaction, is a revolutionary molecular biology technique that allows for the rapid amplification of specific DNA sequences. It is an essential tool in various fields, ...

(6) Continued exposure to harsh chemicals damages the DNA and reduces yields. Scientists use short oligonucleotides as primers for polymerase chain reaction and next-generation sequencing, in DNA ...

Droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (PCR) measurements of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) identify patients with stage III melanoma who are at high risk for early recurrence during adjuvant ...

Forensic DNA profiling uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify short tandem repeats (STRs), which are highly variable DNA regions, typically with four repeating bases. This variability helps ...

Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:APDN) ("Applied DNA" or the "Company"), a leader in polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based technologies, today announced that it will release its first quarter ...

DNA testing firm 23andMe is bankrupt, and now the genomic data of its 15 million users is up for sale to the highest bidder. Could that data end up on the blockchain? The company announced on ...
