Nucleic acid extraction is an essential process in the laboratory, especially when there is a need to extract genetic materials from a sample. Over the last couple of years, the technology used for nucleic acid extraction has advanced considerably, bringing more available and accurate options. With magnetic bead technology, for example, the process becomes more accessible and convenient. This article […]
June 14th is World Blood Donor Day. This year, there was a discussion about what tests need to be done when you donate blood. Medical experts gave different suggestions, and they agreed on several of them to ensure the recipient’s safety. In this guide, we will talk about three facts about blood donor screening that you should know, discussing the […]
Nucleic acid extraction is a critical task in a molecular biology lab. This is the first and most important step before any amplification process, which is why efficiency and accuracy are paramount. The idea of a nucleic acid extraction system was developed for clinical laboratories to make the work faster and easier. Using advanced magnetic beads technology, the system realizes […]
One-tube fast release technology is a highly efficient method to extract nucleic acid with better efficiency while minimizing potential contamination. This cost-effective method is widely used in molecular detection today as it does not just greatly improve the efficiency of nucleic acid extraction, but also produces high-quality results for PCR analysis as well. Sansure iPonatic III is a good example of […]
Types of HPV HPV, or human papillomavirus, is one of the most common sexually transmitted viruses that cause infection. HPV is usually transmitted through genital contact like vaginal, oral, or anal sex, or skin-to-skin contact. There are over 200 different types of HPV responsible for causing a wide variety of genital conditions, ranging from invasive tumors to benign lesions[1]. The […]
