IARI have developed a highly sensitive, field-deployable LAMP assay that identifies the invasive melon fly in under an hour ...

The Shift Toward Precision Frying Technology The international landscape for commercial frying is transitioning from traditional, high-heat manual methods to “Precision Thermal Ecosystems.” This ...

A new same-day detection strategy shows how simple, low-cost lab steps can uncover Salmonella in meats, vegetables, and dairy far faster than traditional methods. This could offer a powerful tool for ...

Digital PCR, which simultaneously detects SMN1 gene defects and the number of SMN2 copies to diagnose spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) in newborn screening programs, matches the accuracy of standard ...

Researchers have developed a light-induced DNA detection method that enables rapid, PCR-free genetic analysis. Their technique offers ultra-sensitive mutation detection in just five minutes, reducing ...

PCR genetic analysis has been in the spotlight since COVID-19, but light is now further facilitating PCR-free methods. Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have developed a light-induced DNA ...

Abstract: To detect Ibaraki virus (IBAV) sensitively and quickly, a rapid detection technique of reverse transcriptase isothermal nucleic acid amplification (RT-LAMP) for the virus was established, ...

With the global overuse of antibiotics, the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria and "superbugs" has become a major threat to human health and food safety. Among these, drug-resistant ...
