Mothers can transfer life-long protection against infection to their infants by breastfeeding. This was the finding from new research in mice by an international team of scientists led by researchers at the University of...

Bacteria have fascinating properties. They adapt excellently to their respective environment, and they existed long before humans. Their toughness has led to the fact that bacteria have successfully spread all over the world for...

The precision and accuracy with which single cells can be analyzed and manipulated has been greatly improved in recent years by the development of microfluidic-based flow cytometry. Despite its sensitivity, microfluidic flow cytometry is limited...

Ordinarily, microRNAs are evaluated in terms of their expression levels. Relatively little notice is taken of the molecules’ methylation status. Yet methylation status may matter. That is, it may affect the biological activity of...
