In nanopore-based sequencing, the word “tunneling” does not refer to the threading of a single strand of DNA through a nanopore, as one might expect. It is, rather, a novel detection technique, the ...
Researchers in the genetics field may speak a different language than the rest of us. Industry supplier Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) of Coralville has found a few things we all share in common, ...
Kone K. Marcel, a microbiologist at the National Institute of Public Health of Mali, said the training has given him a "great opportunity" to learn Chinese DNA sequencing technology capable of ...
The DNA inside of living organisms is packed with information, so much so that it's hard to search genetic databases, but ...
