At different times during the life cycle of a cell, the DNA that makes up the cell's chromosomes can be tightly compacted into a structure that is visible under a microscope, or it can be more ...

8 out of 10 women change their name after marriage—they might not realize the impact it has on their careers, work relationships, and job prospects California fires burn through historic Los ...

Call it the science of small, but a trio of University of Florida chemical engineers have developed a lab-on-a-chip process ...

Purification removes contaminants from DNA samples, ensuring the integrity of the genetic material and providing more accurate results.

Schaefer says they notified Colorado district attorneys and retested DNA in the cases where DAs requested it -- just 14 so far. He admits CBI has not notified defense attorneys, victims or defendants, ...

The trunk of each 'Christmas tree' (a transcription unit) represents a DNA molecule; the tree branches (granular strings attached to the DNA) are RNA molecules that have been transcribed from the DNA.

The world’s first fully 3D-printed microscope can be made in a few hours and for a fraction of the cost of traditional ones.

Scientists demonstrate how T4 bacteriophages can calibrate super-resolution microscopes with nanometer accuracy, enabling ...

To discover the reverse gear of SMC motors, the researchers used an advanced home-built microscope to look at single proteins on individual DNA molecules. That in itself is an impressive achievement.

Most microscopes can only illuminate objects down ... techniques and precise microfluidics control to stretch out curly DNA into a straight line, research published in AIP Advances demonstrates ...

Let's take a look at how to observe cells under a microscope. No prizes for guessing the first thing you'll need: a microscope. But don't worry if you don't have one of your own. Ask your school ...

They found that controlling the flow velocity of the liquid helps fine-tune the shear force applied and allows precise adjustments of the stretch ratio of the DNA. Most microscopes can only ...
