Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This ...

A collaboration between Nordita, the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics, hosted by Stockholm University, KTH and Google ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means ...

A 2015 report published by a private genomics testing company found that 2% of 345 hot dogs tested contained traces of human DNA. However, it was unclear whether that report was a peer-reviewed ...

The device, which cools qubits to record low temperatures, is composed of two qubits—one hot (top right) and one cold (bottom right)—which cool a third, target qubit (bottom left). Powered by heat ...

The new quantum refrigerator – the square object in the centre of the qubit in the image – is based on superconducting circuits and powered by heat from the environment. Researchers at the ...

The researchers built two qubits and one “qutrit”, which can store more complex information than a qubit, from tiny superconducting circuits. The qutrit and one of the qubits formed a fridge ...

Following capture, the target region library was amplified by PCR, and library quantification and fragment length determination were performed using the Qubit dsDNA HS Assay Kit and Agilent2100 ...

Chromosomes are tightly coiled structures in each of your cells that contain DNA, the code for all life. DNA is organized in segments on chromosomes called genes. Humans typically have 46 ...

As she worked at her computer, the results revealed the sample she was examining contained human DNA. There was nothing so unusual about that in itself: at the time, the ancient DNA (aDNA ...
