Diagnostic effectiveness is driving the accelerated acceptance of Stanbio Laboratory’s Beta Hydroxybutyrate LiquiColor® reagent in U.S. hospital chemistry laboratories. The assay is used primarily for determining both the presence and degree of ketosis in suspected diabetic ketoacidosis cases.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has released a new technical note which demonstrates the complete recovery of human hormones from drinking water.

Researchers at the Wayne State University School of Medicine are among more than 250 scientists in 114 labs in more than 20 countries and regions to publish a series of coordinated papers, including landmark papers in Nature and ten other journals, revealing a definitive list of human cell states that has the potential to serve as an essential resource for regenerative medicine.

When Wayne State University’s team began Phase II of its Chemistry building renovation, it was stumped by a seemingly simple question. Use a single blade damper terminal or a Venturi air valve technology to control its laboratory ventilation and exhaust system?

“Is my water safe to drink?” Getting the answer to that question is Russell Leu’s main goal as section supervisor of the environmental laboratory in the Montana State Department of Public Health & Human Services (DPHHS).

The potential health benefits of dark chocolate keep piling up, and scientists are now homing in on what ingredients in chocolate might help prevent obesity, as well as type-2 diabetes.

A five-year, $10 million Specialized Research Center grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will help scientists from across Cornell University's campus tackle the roots of reproductive issues and train the next generation of reproduction scientists.

A research team at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) has developed a small electronic sensing device that can alert users wirelessly to the presence of chemical vapors in the atmosphere. The technology, which could be manufactured using familiar aerosol-jet printing techniques, is aimed at myriad applications in military, commercial, environmental, healthcare and other areas.

Does the widespread and still proliferating use of antimicrobial household products cause more harm than good to consumers and the environment? Evidence compiled in a new feature article published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology (ES&T) by Arizona State University professor Rolf Halden shows that decades of widespread use of antimicrobials has left consumers with no measurable benefits.

Be sure to pick up a watermelon — or two — at your local grocery store.  It could save your life.

Findings may help explain why those less sensitive to the negative effects of alcohol may drink more heavily

Study reports major advance in synthetic biology.
