While DNA microarrays are already widely used, adapting the technology to RNA microarrays has proved difficult due to the lower stability of RNA. In 2018, the University of Vienna demonstrated how ...

Biochips (microarrays) are modern analytical tools that allow thousands of individual detections to be performed simultaneously in a small amount of sample material. A team led by Mark Somoza from the ...

A full-size, high-density RNA microchip is about the size of a fingernail and can contain up to 780 000 unique RNA sequences, each occupying a ~14 x 14 μm² area. The presence and the quality of the ...

(Nanowerk News) An international research team led by the University of Vienna has succeeded in developing a new version of RNA building blocks with higher chemical reactivity and photosensitivity.

The red-hot field of RNA interference (RNAi) could benefit from patents issued jointly to Queensland, Australia-based Benitec, and the State of Queensland (US patent 6,573,099, issued June 3, 2003, ...

The arrival of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has revolutionized the field of genomics and expanded the scope of scientific inquiry to sequence datasets from multiple genomes and ...

Emphasis on Potential Clinical Applications and Enhancing RNA Sample Quality Researchers are beginning to look at tissue microarrays (TMA) from different perspectives, including one with a strong ...

The mutation status of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) as a selection criterion for therapy with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI’s) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) No ...

If you want to know what a cell, tissue, or organism is doing, molecularly speaking, you don’t look at its genome; you’ve got to look further downstream. One option: the transcriptome. One step beyond ...
