Endosomal and cytosolic nucleic acid receptors sense microbial nucleic acids and initiate innate immune responses. However, in some circumstances their activation by endogenous nucleic acids can also ...

Nucleic acid extraction is a fundamental step in unlocking the genetic information contained within biological samples. Isolated nucleic acids are the basis for a multitude of analyses and ...

Saliva is a viable alternative source of nucleic acids. A new collection device offers stable and easy saliva collection for extracting both DNA and RNA from a single sample.

Nucleic acids are chains of nucleotides that are a vital part of all living beings. The two most common types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), which provide ...

The primary bottleneck in this procedure is the inability to culture forensically relevant pathogens under laboratory conditions; moreover, nucleic acids may be low quality or damaged, rendering them ...

Understanding the integrity and quantity of your nucleic acid samples is critical for next-generation sequencing (NGS) and biobanking workflows. Whether you are working with gDNA, cfDNA or RNA, this ...

Biocompatible silicon nanoneedles, which can efficiently deliver nucleic acids and nanoparticles into biological cells without damaging them, have been developed by an international team of ...

Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA play a central role in gene therapies and vaccines. They store and transmit biological ...

Some biologists have long hoped that small pieces of RNA that silence genes could help wipe out genetic diseases. But developing nucleic acid medications with good drug properties, such as selectivity ...

Primerdesign (part of the Novacyt Group), a company focused on the design, manufacture, validation and supply of nucleic acid ...

The research focus of the Müller group is the bioinorganic chemistry of nucleic acids with a particular emphasis on the generation, characterization as well as application of nucleic acids including ...
