Novel newborn screening can open door to treating rare but devastating diseases
Rare metabolic diseases such as Tay-Sachs, Fabry and Gaucher syndromes are caused by enzyme deficiencies and typically have crippling, even fatal, consequences starting at very early ages. view more (2006-03-29)
UC San Diego researchers eliminate drug discovery bottleneck
Determining the structure of unknown natural compounds is a slow and expensive part of drug screening and development - but this may now change thanks to a new combination of experimental and computational protocols developed at the University of California, San Diego and presented at RECOMB 2008 (Research in Computational Molecular Biology) on... view more...

Golden Scales: Nanoscale Mass Sensor from Berkeley Can Be Used to Weigh Individual Atoms and Molecules
There's a new "gold standard" in the sensitivity of weighing scales. Using the same technology with which they created the world's first fully functional nanotube radio, researchers with Berkeley Lab and the University of California (UC) at Berkeley have fashioned a nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) that can function as a scale... view more...

New tooth enamel dating technique
The radioactive carbon-14 produced by above-ground nuclear testing in the 1950s and 1960s is providing forensic scientists with a more precise way to determine a person's age at the time of death. view more (2005-09-15)
Fast, accurate detection of explosives on airport luggage possible
Fast, highly reliable detection of residues that could indicate the presence of explosives and other hazardous materials inside luggage is now possible with technology under development at Purdue University. view more (2005-10-03)
Scientists identify 36 genes, 100 neuropeptides in honey bee brains
From humans to honey bees, neuropeptides control brain activity and, hence, our behaviors. view more (2006-10-26)
Uranium isotope ratios are not invariant, researchers show
For years, the ratio of uranium's two long-lived isotopes, U-235 and U-238, has been considered invariant, despite measurements made in the mid-1970s that hinted otherwise. view more (2007-10-24)
MIT gas sensor is tiny, quick
Engineers at MIT are developing a tiny sensor that could be used to detect minute quantities of hazardous gases, including toxic industrial chemicals and chemical warfare agents, much more quickly than current devices. view more (2008-01-14)
Orientation of antenna protein in photosynthetic bacteria described
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have figured out the orientation of a protein in the antenna complex to its neighboring membrane in a photosynthetic bacterium, a key find in the process of energy transfer in photosynthesis. view more (2009-04-03)
Caltech physicists create first nanoscale mass spectrometer
Using devices millionths of a meter in size, physicists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have developed a technique to determine the mass of a single molecule, in real time. view more (2009-07-23)
Technique quickly identifies bacteria for food safety, health care and homeland security
Researchers at Purdue University have used a new technique to rapidly detect and precisely identify bacteria, including dangerous E. coli, without time-consuming treatments usually required. view more (2007-01-02)
Introducing the biology of the future: Researchers at CellZome AG and EMBL publish record-breaking analysis of a cell's proteome
Scientists are calling it "biology of the next generation," and a major step towards transforming information from genome projects into applications such as the discovery of new drugs. Today researchers from Heidelberg have announced the completion of a large-scale study of the "molecular machines" formed by nearly two thousand... view more... (2002-01-08)
New technique boosts by four times the size of a protein that researchers can analyze
Imagine you had to break a secret code, but you could see only part of the message. That's the kind of frustration researchers face when trying to identify proteins and characterize how those proteins are modified in cells by biological processes. view more (2006-10-09)
LGC selects £500k Bruker Daltonics instrument to expand its mass spectrometry capability
LGC, the UK`s leading independent analytical laboratory providing chemical, biochemical and DNA analysis, has purchased a new Bruker Daltonics APEX III 47e Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometer (FTMS). This instrument, with its exceptionally high mass accuracy and resolution, will be used to characterise high molecular weight materials, especially... view more... (2002-06-10)
'Cannabis alters human DNA' -- new study
A new study published by University of Leicester researchers has found "convincing evidence" that cannabis smoke damages DNA in ways that could potentially increase the risk of cancer development in humans. view more (2009-06-17)
Role for proteomics in identifying hematologic malignancies
Scientists have identified a set of biomarkers that could help clinicians identify a group of hematologic malignancies known as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), which affect approximately 300,000 individuals worldwide and often progress to acute myeloid leukemia. view more (2007-01-11)
Membrane complexes take flight
Against currently held dogma, scientists at the Universities of Cambridge and Bristol have revealed that the interactions within membrane complexes can be maintained intact in the vacuum of a mass spectrometer. Their research is published in this week's edition of Science Express. view more (2008-06-13)
Proteomic profiling shown more accurate than traditional biomarkers in identifying liver cancer
As the incidence of liver cancer continues to grow-- fueled in large part, by rising rates of hepatitis C infections - so too does the need for tests to help diagnose the disease at an earlier stage. view more (2008-01-15)
Study reports newborn screening tests can save both lives and money
In a new study, conducted for the federal government and published in a supplement to the May issue of the journal Pediatrics, Stephen M. Downs, M.D. and Aaron E. Carroll, M.D., of the Indiana University School of Medicine, recommend a national uniform panel of newborn screening tests which they found to be cost saving as well as life saving. view more (2006-05-02)
