Omega-3 fatty acids are known to be an essential part of a healthy diet. As humans cannot produce them, they have to be consumed in sufficient amounts. However, omega-6, -7, -9, and -10 fatty acids ...

Researchers from the McCullagh Group in Oxford University's Department of Chemistry have published an innovative method in Nature Protocols that provides comprehensive analysis of metabolites found in ...

IIT Guwahati researchers have pioneered a biological process using sulphate-reducing bacteria to remove lead from acidic ...

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) screening coupled with single-cell RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful tool to characterize the effects of genetic perturbations ...

A new kind of blood test could be used to predict future disease risk. Here is what it means for the detection of diseases ...

A JCI review traces biological age measurement from functional tests and blood biomarkers to epigenetic, proteomic, imaging, ...

Systems biology is a rapidly evolving discipline that examines the complex interactions underlying biological function ...

Where sufficiently large genome-wide association study (GWAS) samples are not currently available or feasible, methods that leverage increasing knowledge of the biological function of variants may ...

Many spatial biology researchers rely on two-dimensional tools, which section the cellular architecture and processes occurring within 3D tissues into flat layers. Three-dimensional multiomic analysis ...

A novel health-assessment tool uses eight metrics derived from a person's physical exam and routine lab tests to characterize biological age. It may be able to predict a person's risk of disability ...
