Living cells cool much slower than our current understanding of heat conduction can explain, according to new research from the University of Tokyo. Researchers have used two techniques—high-speed ...

Automated cell analysis in biological fluids encompasses technologies for rapid quantification and characterisation of cells in specimens such as cerebrospinal, pleural, peritoneal and synovial fluids ...

Automated cell counting in body fluids is revolutionising diagnostic pathways by replacing traditional manual methods with robust, high-throughput platforms. This approach enhances accuracy and ...

Sperm cells move through fluids that should stop them almost instantly, yet new research suggests they succeed by exploiting unusual properties of active living matter.

As a fetus develops, its body is bathed in amniotic fluid: a warm, salty soup of nutrients, hormones, and antibodies produced by its mother. And into that fluid, a fetus is constantly sloughing off or ...

Scientists have created miniorgans from cells floating in the fluid that surrounds a fetus in the womb – an advance they believe could open up new areas of prenatal medicine. Miniorgans, or “ ...

These images use color markers—blue for nuclei, red for cell membranes, and green for fluid—to show that spaces between cells shrink as fluid moves out during tissue compression, from left to right ...

Amniotic fluid is chock full of dead cells. And although the cells, which are shed from the developing fetus, have been used in prenatal diagnostics for over four decades, the composition of the tiny ...

Scientists at Oregon Health and Science University have discovered that cells generate steady internal fluid currents, dubbed “cytoplasmic tradewinds,” that actively push proteins toward the leading ...

Researchers have come up with a less invasive way to collect amniotic stem cells — a development they say could reduce dangers for pregnant women and other pregnant individuals as well as fetuses and ...
