BUFFALO, N.Y. -- A multidisciplinary team of pharmaceutics and computer-science researchers at the University at Buffalo, one of very few teams in the nation applying DNA microarray technology in ...

Based on electrostatic repulsion — in which objects with the same electrical charge repel one another — the technique is relatively simple and inexpensive to implement, and can be carried out in a ...

A new DNA microarray chip can predict severe disability and remission in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The chip has yielded two clinical-genetic models of RA outcomes, to assist physicians in ...

Persistent Doubts about Reproducibility and Compatability of Data Are Being Overcome One of the hottest research tools these days within the academic, biotech, and pharma communities is DNA ...

DNA microarrays—devices that measure gene expression—could become easier to use, thanks to a new readout method based on electrostatic repulsion. Such devices are used in biological research and ...

The prophylactic use of lamivudine can maintain dose-intensity of doxorubicin in hepatitis-B surface antigen (HBs Ag)-positive patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who received cytotoxic chemotherapy ...

In each type of cell, like a muscle cell or a skin cell, different genes are expressed (turned on) or silenced (turned off). If the cells that are turned on mutate, they could—depending on what role ...

A microarray is a two-dimensional arrangement of biological samples allowing for high-throughput analysis of genetic information. DNA microarrays are commonly used to genotype multiple regions of a ...

BERKELEY, CA — The dream of personalized medicine — in which diagnostics, risk predictions and treatment decisions are based on a patient's genetic profile — may be on the verge of being expanded ...

Researchers have invented a technique in which DNA assays -- the key to personalized medicine -- can be read and evaluated with no need of elaborate chemical labeling or sophisticated instrumentation.
