Proteins.1, a new VTT-originated startup has been established to commercialise a technology enabling ultra-sensitive detection of proteins at the single-molecule level. The company aims to transform ...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double-stranded circular DNA virus with a genome of approximately 7–8 kb. This study aimed to ...

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a fundamental molecular biology tool that scientists use to amplify and analyze genetic material, such as DNA and RNA. PCR involves the enzymatic amplification of ...

Harnessing technology transferred from VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Proteins.1 is developing a PCR-like ...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double-stranded circular DNA virus with a genome of approximately 7–8 kb. This study aimed to establish an overlapping extension polymerase chain reaction method for ...

Limited sample material and insufficient DNA input pose significant challenges for downstream analysis in various laboratory settings. To overcome this issue, isothermal amplification techniques have ...

Despite its utility, PCR’s main limitation is that it requires precise cycles of heating and cooling to amplify DNA. The thermal cyclers that perform this operation are clunky, relatively expensive, ...

Plants have evolved a variety of defense mechanisms against predators and environmental challenges. Among their protective devices are a myriad of compounds, some very complex in structure, that allow ...

RT-PCR testing is showing up more often on dairies because it can find mastitis pathogens faster and more accurately than ...
