Researchers from several Parisian institutions have worked together to develop a non-destructive approach to study how ...

It infects nearly one-third of the global population, yet its microscopic size makes the Toxoplasma gondii parasite difficult ...

Modern bioassays tend to fall under three common modalities: colorimetric, luminometric or fluorometric. Colorimetric assays record the amount of light absorbed by a reporter compound. This absorbance ...

A set of new imaging tools now allows researchers to see how specific fat molecules, called phospholipids, are distributed ...

Living organisms are made up of hundreds of thousands of cells that cooperate to create the organs and systems that breathe, eat, move, and think. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a new way ...

Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few organizational details can be gained by using standard transmission-based ...

Demand for odor detection is growing in diverse fields such as food security, medical diagnostics, and environmental monitoring, but current technologies face limitations. Living cells with olfactory ...

Scientists in China have just grown a fluorescent green monkey using stem cells in a world first. Although this has been observed in other animals, such as rats and mice before, so far it has not been ...

Cells are squishy and soft. Tiny nanometer-sized particles such as quantum sensors cannot move freely inside them due to viscous drag, which makes sensing challenging. Researchers at the Indian ...

Scientists recorded 24 hours of the cellular construction process, revealing surprising new details about how plant cell ...
