Novel DNA microarray chip predicts functional impairment and remission in rheumatoid arthritis
A new DNA microarray chip can predict severe disability and remission in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), as presented today at EULAR 2008, the Annual Congress of the European League Against Rheumatism in Paris, France. The chip (called the 'ARTchip') has yielded two clinical-genetic models of RA outcomes, to assist physicians in... view more... (2008-06-16)
Chips could speed up detection of livestock viruses
Some of the worst threats to farm workers and farm animals such as bird flu, foot-and-mouth disease and other emerging viruses could soon be quickly identified by using a simple screening chip developed by scientists from the Institute for Animal Health, scientists will hear today (Monday 31 March 2008) at the Society for General Microbiology's... view more...

Chromosomal microarray analysis proves accurate
Two years and more than 2,000 samples after researchers at Baylor College of Medicine started to use a new gene-chip technology called chromosomal microarray analysis to look for potential genetic abnormalities in children, they find that it is remarkably sensitive in detecting abnormalities in individual chromosomes. view more (2007-03-30)
University of Leicester First for New Technology
A research team at the University of Leicester has won funding for projects examining 60,000 gene interactions simultaneously. Announcing two awards Professor Joe Lunec, Head of the Division of Chemical Pathology, said that an award of £300,000 from the Food Standards Agency will establish a gene microarray facility at the University making... view more...

New method of selecting DNA for resequencing accelerates discovery of subtle DNA variations
A new technology developed by scientists at Emory University will allow researchers to more easily discover subtle and overlooked genetic variations that may have serious consequences for health and disease. Called Microarray-based Genomic Selection (MGS), the research protocol allows scientists to extract and enrich specific large-sized DNA... view more... (2007-10-15)
Gene chip technology will lead to quick and accurate genetic testing for cystic fibrosis
A single genetic test that is capable of detecting all mutations involved in the development of cystic fibrosis could be just a few years away, the 20th annual conference of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology heard today (Monday 28 June). Researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, have discovered that recently... view more... (2004-06-28)
Large DNA microarray dataset is made publicly available by LGC and the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI)
As the next phase of DTI's Measurements for Biotechnology (MfB) programme to 2007 gets underway, a large DNA microarray dataset generated by an LGC-led consortium during the first phase is now freely available online at ArrayExpress, a leading public repository managed by the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI). The sharing of well-annotated... view more... (2005-02-17)
BIOTECHNICA 2003: At the Pulse of the Chip Lab
The clinical and industrial analytics as well as diagnostics show an increasing demand for more sensitive and more rapid detection methods using smallest sample volumes. Within the BMBF joint project "MODULAB" a „chip-based-lab" construction kit is developed in which all the necessary working steps can be performed in separate... view more... (2003-10-07)
New tool probes function of rice genes
A new tool for investigating the rice genome has been developed by researchers at UC Davis led by Pamela Ronald, professor of plant pathology. view more (2008-10-09)
Mapping dynamic Polycomb group proteins during Drosophila development
The developmental passage from a ball of cells to a fruit-fly is a very complicated process involving both temporal and spatial regulation of genes and pathways. view more (2006-04-20)
Would you like gene chips with your salad ?
The first public release of plant gene chip information is being launched at the Society for Experimental Biology conference in Swansea on Friday 12th April. Scientists from the Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Centre (NASC), part of a multi-million pound resource network, will announce a newly accessible plant gene chip database which is available... view more...

Infection detectives use disease 'fingerprints' to track common infections in children
Infectious disease specialists at UT Southwestern Medical Center have found a new method for identifying suspect viruses and bacteria that cause some of the most common acute infections in children. view more (2007-03-14)
'DEEP AND CRISP AND EATEN': THE SCOTTISH DEEP-FRIED MARS BAR (p 2180)
A letter in this week's issue of THE LANCET details a survey of Scottish fish and chip shops to try and estimate the popularity of the deep-fried Mars bar. view more (2004-12-15)
Boston University scientists develop new application to characterize structure of DNA molecules
A team of researchers from Boston University has developed a new application to enable more precise measurement of the location of a fluorescent label in a DNA layer. view more (2006-03-01)
Labs on a chip
The American bio-technology company, WaferGen, is planning to produce three micro laboratories on three different sensor chips, which were developed in Delft. To this end the company will acquire licences to for the patented design. The contracts will be signed by representatives of WaferGen and by Ir. G.J. van Luijk (chairman of the TU Delft... view more... (2004-06-03)
ANALYTICA 2004: Trapping Smallest Bioparticles
The Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) and the Norwegian NorChip AS have jointly developed a chip-based µ-concentrator. Suited for application in biomedical diagnostics, the dielectrophoresis (DEP) chip permits selective separation and concentration of polarisable bioparticles such as viruses and bacteria from a complex substance... view more...

On chip separation: large molecules pass the speed camera first
What molecule or particle passes the finishline first? A good way to split a fluid sample into its separate parts is: organize a contest in a micro-channel. The largest parts will pass the optical detector first, the smaller ones follow at short distance. This principle of 'hydrodynamic chromatography' is now also possible on a chip. 'On-chip'... view more... (2002-12-10)
UK researchers find way to reduce power consumption of transistors in computer chips
University of Kentucky researchers have discovered a means of reducing gate leakage current of transistors in computer chips that will permit chip producers to continue developing more efficient and powerful chips with reduced power consumption. view more (2005-12-07)
ANALYTICA 2004: Biochip Helps Avoid Allergic Reactions
Within the EU project "CD-CHEF" the Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH (IMM) is involved in the development of a biosensor for the detection of gluten in food. As a disposable chip the biosensor permits the standardised extraction and analysis of food samples. At Analytica, the experts from Mainz present a first functional model which... view more...
