New method for testing condition of seeds
Wageningen UR develops method for testing condition of seeds Flow-cytometry, the technique for studying large numbers of individual cells in a fluid, can be combined with the use of special fluorescent colouring agents to form a valuable method of determining the health of seeds and seed consignments. This is shown in the thesis with which... view more... (2001-04-03)
Scientists Exploring Inflammation in Rheumatoid Arthritis Make Unexpected Discovery That One Day May Lead to New Treatments
What makes joints in people with rheumatoid arthritis, and related conditions like Lyme disease or lupus, so susceptible to attack by the body's immune system, leading to painful flare-ups and deterioration? The answer may surprise you. view more (2006-02-16)
New study shows potential to treat or prevent viral cancers
A new study, presented at the SNM 55th Annual Meeting, shows that radioimmunotherapy (RIT) targeting viral antigens offers a novel option to treat-or even prevent-many viral cancers by targeting cancer cells expressing viral antigens or infected cells before they convert into malignancy. view more (2008-06-17)
How to beat superbugs
HOSPITALS in Britain will next week begin testing a drug against superbugs that mimics the antibodies produced by our immune systems. With superbugs fast developing resistance to every antibiotic we can throw at them, alternative treatments are urgently needed. In 1990, 2 per cent of Staphylococcus... view more... (2002-05-23)
