Understanding the sequence of human DNA gives scientists information about diseases, including potentially how to diagnose or treat them. In a new paper published in Nature Biotechnology, scientists ...

Scientists are scanning human DNA with a precision and scope once unthinkable and rapidly finding genes linked to cancer, arthritis, diabetes and other diseases. It’s a payoff from a landmark ...

Gut bacteria rapidly adapt to processed food additives, revealing how modern diets can reshape microbial evolution worldwide.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 86, No. 14 (Jul. 15, 1989), pp. 5356-5360 (5 pages) Scanning tunneling microscope images of DNA molecules adsorbed ...

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has developed a new scanning tool to identify the entire DNA content of a food. The new analytical tool can proactively identify all the ingredients and ...

The world's largest DNA scan for familial autism has uncovered new genetic changes in autistic children that are often not present in their parents. Identified in less than 1 percent of the population ...

But many researchers predict that demand will drive scanning technology in surprising ways. It s almost like computing power with the microchip, says chemist Mike Heller at Nanogen, a DNA chip maker ...

Researchers have learned that when sperm cells mature, they activate many of their genes, which enables a repair process to take place; errors in their DNA are fixed during this time. Reporting in ...
