The researchers believe that their prototype could be the basis of a portable, point-of-care testing platform that would enable rapid testing anywhere.
The new method incorporates analysis of the amplification and melt curves and was used to create a single-channel nonaplex test using intercalating dye.
Single-Cell Transcriptome Atlas of the Human Heart Highlights Heterogeneity
Using transcription data from cells and nuclei, the researchers uncovered heterogeneity within cardiac cells and mapped them to particular regions of the heart.
SkylineDx, Imperial College London, UCSD Partner to Develop Kawasaki Disease Test
The test is based on 13 genes that form a gene signature in the blood of children with Kawasaki disease, and it enables KD to be distinguished from other diseases.
GnomAD Consortium Details Range of Human Genetic Variation From Large Dataset
The collection of more than 125,000 exomes and 15,000 genomes has enabled an analysis of loss-of-function variants, may help diagnose rare disease, and guide drug development.
