Nanowire device could detect cancer with a urine test

Cells communicate with each other through a number of different mechanisms. Some of these mechanisms are well-known: in animals, for example, predatory threats can drive the release of norepinephrine, a hormone that travels through the bloodstream and triggers heart and muscle cells to initiate a "fight-or-flight" response. A far less familiar mode of cellular transport is the extracellular vesicle (EV).

Cyanine dyes improves the efficiency of molecular probes

Scientists use fragments of RNA and DNA with specific nucleotide sequences to identify others with complementary sequences, indicating, for example, the presence of a specific kind of virus. Researchers in Japan have recently improved the existing probing techniques using a cyanine dye called Cy3. RNA and DNA "probes" are conventionally made using fragments of strands that have nucleotide sequences on either end that complement each oth...

A step towards sulfur-based organic semiconductors

Thiophene-fused polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are known to be useful as organic semiconductors due to their high charge transport properties. Scientists at Nagoya University have developed a short route to form various thiophene-fused PAHs by simply heating mono-functionalised PAHs with sulfur. This method is expected to contribute towards the efficient development of novel thiophene-based electronic materials.
