New ‘dipstick’ test determines blood types instantly
Scientists are reporting development of the first "dipstick" test for instantly determining a person's blood type at a cost of just a few pennies. Their study on the test, which involves placing a drop of blood on a specially treated paper strip, appears in ACS' semi-monthly journal Analytical Chemistry, where ...

Oasis near Death Valley fed by ancient aquifer under Nevada Test Site
A new Brigham Young University study indicates that water arriving at Ash Meadows in Death Valley is completing a 15,000-year journey, flowing slowly underground from what is now the Nevada Test Site.
Nanoparticle PSA test predicts if prostate cancer will return
Men who have just had their cancerous prostate gland removed have one pressing question for their doctors: Am I cured? But conventional tests haven't been sensitive enough to provide a concrete answer. Current tests that measure the level of protein called PSA (prostate-specific antigen), which signals the presence of cancer, ...

Nanoparticle PSA test predicts if prostate cancer will return
Conventional PSA tests aren't sensitive enough to show if men are cured after having a cancerous prostate gland removed. New research from Northwestern University shows an ultrasensitive PSA test using nanoparticle-based technology may be able to definitively predict after surgery if the cancer is cured or if it will recur. ...
Nottingham research leads to blood test for early detection of cancer
The University of Nottingham spin-out company, Oncimmune Ltd, has developed a ground breaking blood test which will aid the detection of cancer as much as five years earlier than current testing methods such as mammography and CT scans. Physicians will know the result of their patient's test within one week ...
