A wearable sensor printed on microbial nanocellulose, a natural polymer, has been created in Brazil by researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in São Carlos in collaboration with colleagues ...

Microplastics and the much smaller nanoplastics enter the human body in various ways, for example through food or the air we breathe. A large proportion is excreted, but a certain amount remains in ...

A recent study by scientists from Japanese universities has shown that the shape of cell-derived nanoparticles, known as "extracellular vesicles" (EVs), in body fluids could be a biomarker for ...

Normally, your body is made of about 50%-60% fluid, including water, blood, and lymphatic fluid. When your fluid levels are out of balance (too high or too low), serious health problems can happen.

Researchers have discovered a new biomarker for Parkinson's disease. A misfolded protein facilitates reliable diagnosis even in the early stages of Parkinson's disease in body fluids. Parkinson's ...

Identifying different types of body fluids can help forensic experts reconstruct a crime scene, but it’s difficult to do so. In a study published in Electrophoresis, researchers developed a method ...

Real-time clinical validation of a blood cell-free, mRNA-based GeneVerify test for screening and early diagnosis of prostate cancer. Circulating tumor DNA and late recurrence in high-risk, hormone ...
