PCR genetic analysis has been in the spotlight since COVID-19, but light is now further facilitating PCR-free methods. Osaka ...

Light accelerates DNA hybridization using gold nanoparticles and polystyrene microparticles as probes for PCR-free DNA detection.

Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have developed a light-induced DNA detection technique, using heterogeneous probe particles, that enables ultra-sensitive and ultra-fast genetic analysis ...

We recently spoke with Columbia University theoretical physicist Brian Greene about these faster-than-light particles. Here's what he had to say on the matter. Follow TI: On Facebook More from ...

They have developed a technology capable of capturing and simulating the journey of photons, the particles of light. This achievement is based on an ultra-fast camera and an artificial ...

Researchers have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question. Researchers from the University of Birmingham have ...

“DNA extracted from two pastoralist women who were buried at the rock shelter around 7,000 years ago reveals that most of their ancestry can be traced to a previously unknown ancient North ...

A new study reveals Earth's oceans may have looked green 2.4 billion years ago due to iron particles before oxygen made them ...

The team also tested the risk of unintended phototoxicity. Mice treated with standard photosensitizer delivery methods developed significant skin inflammation after light exposure, but those receiving ...
