Using optogenetics, researchers have detected a new acid sensor in plant cells that is addressing a cell-internal calcium store. When plants are infected by pathogens, suffer from a lack of water or ...

Scientists at the University of Bath, (UK), working in collaboration with industrial partner, Integrated Graphene, have created a new type of chemosensor (demonstrated for lactic acid sensing) which ...

Wearable biosensors are revolutionizing point-of-care diagnostics by offering real-time monitoring of physiological metrics and biomarkers. A team of researchers at Purdue University’s College of ...

Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), a severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus's nucleic acid sensor, was discovered to be aberrantly expressed in many types of cancers. However, its expression ...

Scientists at Bath, have introduced a breakthrough carbon-based sensor for detecting lactic acid levels in saliva—avoiding the need for an electrical power source. The researchers, working in ...

When plants are infected by pathogens, suffer from a lack of water or have to react to other external stimuli, the first thing they do is increase the proton and calcium concentration in the affected ...
