Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- A multidisciplinary team of pharmaceutics and computer-science researchers at the University at Buffalo, one of very few teams in the nation applying DNA microarray technology in ...

Launched in 1990, The Human Genome Project was a monumental effort to sequence and analyze the entire human genome to understand how genetics influence health. While the Human Genome Project helped ...

Like it or not, biologists have to deal increasingly in informatics as their experiments generate ever larger and more complex data sets. Few laboratories have the resources to develop their own ...

Takara Bio Inc., a biotechnology company in Otsu, Japan, has developed a system which allows for mass production of a wide variety of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) fragments needed to make DNA ...

The human genome project was undertaken to determine the human DNA sequence and analyze variation among individuals. To make use of this information, tools were developed that could collect and ...

As a graduate student, Eric Olson learned something about DNA microarrays: Biochip data management can be vexing. His graduate adviser abandoned a number of microarray experiments because it was too ...

DNA microarray analysis showed that a new mouse line developed by Kumamoto University in Japan has altered gene sets similar to those altered in human COPD patients.

Human DNA can be sequenced from small amounts of water, sand and air in the environment to potentially extract identifiable information like genetic lineage, gender, and health risks, according to our ...
