Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...
Since the discovery of the double-helical structure of DNA and postulation of the central dogma of molecular biology, stating that the flow of genetic information goes from DNA to RNA to protein, the ...
Growth of Molecular Diagnostic Testing Spurs Demand for Isolation Products The growing interest in molecular diagnostics as well as genomic and gene-expression analysis is accelerating demand for ...
Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...
Nucleic acid technology came of age during COVID-19 with biopharma firms developing, testing, mass producing, and shipping mRNA vaccines in record time. However, as the pandemic ebbs, the industry now ...
Few things are as tedious as waiting for the alcohol to evaporate and an extracted DNA or RNA pellet to dry. DNA and RNA extractions are a huge time sink for scientists. The hallmark washing steps and ...
When people eat, they ingest the nucleic acids that reside in all living things. The compounds in these acids could inhibit the growth of cancer cells, according to findings published in PLOS ONE by ...
The biosecurity risks associated with an unregulated industry became evident when, in 2006, a Guardian reporter successfully ordered parts of the smallpox genome through the mail. Although ordering ...
