Determining the relative abundance of two different molecular species or the absolute number of molecules in a single sample is challenging. We describe an absolute counting method that can use ...

Approach involves generating a Unique Molecular Identifier prior to amplification. Scientists at the Karolinska Institutet and University of Helsinki have devised a method for counting individual RNA ...

Researchers have developed a method for generating numbers guaranteed to be random, through the use of quantum mechanics. The experimental technique surpasses all previous methods for ensuring the ...

Human cancers and some congenital traits are characterized by cytogenetic aberrations including translocations, amplifications, duplications or deletions that can involve gain or loss of genetic ...

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and CU Boulder have developed a method for generating numbers guaranteed to be random by quantum mechanics. Described in the ...
