Journal of Plant Pathology, Vol. 97, No. 2 (July 2015), pp. 259-263 (5 pages) Leifsonia (Clavibacter) xyli subsp. xyli (Lxx) is the etiological agent of ratoon stunting disease (RSD), one of the most ...

PCR amplification can seem straightforward, but in single-cell workflows even small miscalculations can quickly complicate results and downstream analysis. Conventional PCR systems require users to ...

In vitro diagnostics (IVD) is an umbrella term for tests conducted on blood or tissue samples to detect diseases, determine the efficacy of novel or established treatments, and monitor health.

PCR involves three core components: polymerase, primer, and template. Primers anneal to templates and create initiation sites for the polymerase. The polymerase then recruits free deoxynucleoside ...

Researchers at Columbia Engineering and Rover Diagnostics, both at Columbia University, New York, NY, have teamed up to develop a low-cost, photonics-based portable platform that gives RT-PCR results ...

Researchers have developed a plasmofluidic chip that can perform PCR in only about 8 minutes, which could speed diagnosis during current and future pandemics. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain ...
