Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the PTEN gene.[2] Mutations of this gene are a step in the development of many cancers. PTEN orthologs[3] have been...
A prion (Listeni/ˈpriːɒn/[1]) is a protein that can fold in multiple, structurally distinct ways, at least one of which is transmissible to other prion proteins. While several yeast proteins have b...
In molecular biology, this protein domain belongs to the terpene synthase family (TPS). Its role is to synthesize terpenes which are part of primary metabolism, such as sterols and carotene and als...
Escherichia coli (/ˌɛʃəˈrɪkiə ˈkoʊlɪ/ Anglicized to /ˌɛʃəˈrɪkiə ˈkoʊlaɪ/; commonly abbreviated E. coli) is a gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that is commonly found in the lower intestine of war...

The measurement of the impedance of devices and transmission lines is a practical problem in radio technology and others. Measurements of impedance may be carried out at one frequency, or the varia...
Detection of nucleic acid variations
Mesoporous silica is a mesoporous form of silica and a recent development in nanotechnology. The most common types of mesoporous nanoparticles are MCM-41 and SBA-15.[1] Research continues on the pa...
Medical imaging is the technique and process of creating visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention. Medical imaging seeks to reveal internal st...
In-situ leaching of copper was done by the Chinese by 977 AD, and perhaps as early as 177 BC.[2] Copper is usually leached using acid (sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid), then recovered from solut...
A radioactive tracer, or radioactive label, is a chemical compound in which one or more atoms have been replaced by a radioisotope so by virtue of its radioactive decay it can be used to explore th...
GNAQ/GNA11 mutations
Osteonectin (ON) also known as secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) or basement-membrane protein 40 (BM-40) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPARC gene. Osteonectin ...
Microneedles, formulation systems, and implantable systems are bio-MEMS applicable to drug delivery.[56] Microneedles of approximately 100μm can penetrate the skin barrier and deliver drugs to the ...
