Spit tests may soon replace many blood tests
One day soon patients may spit in a cup, instead of bracing for a needle prick, when being tested for cancer, heart disease or diabetes. A major step in that direction is the cataloguing of the "complete" salivary proteome, a set of proteins in human ductal saliva, identified by a consortium of three research teams.   view more (2008-03-26)

Quintet of proteins forms new, early-warning blood test before heart attack strikes
A team of Johns Hopkins biochemists has identified a mixed bag of five key proteins out of thousands secreted into blood draining from the heart's blood vessels that may together or in certain quantities form the basis of a far more accurate early warning test than currently in use of impending heart attack in people with severely reduced blood... view more...

Next good dinosaur news likely to come from small packages
Dinosaurs seem bigger than life - big bones, big mysteries. So it's a delicious irony that the next big answers about dinosaurs may come from small - very small - remains.    view more (2006-02-17)

Optimized DNA chip for resistance research. Researchers at Fraunhofer IGB prove single nucleotide polymorphisms in the pathogenic human fungus Candida albicans
Resistant pathogens are becoming an increasing problem in hospitals. One of the most common infectious germs is the pathogenic human fungus Candida albicans. In Germany alone, Candida infections kill several thousand people each year. Patients whose immune systems have been weakened as a result of chemotherapy or organ transplants are particularly... view more... (2003-08-06)
