Four principal methods govern the preparation of samples for XRF analysis, each representing a different trade-off between analytical quality and speed/cost of preparation. A method involving the ...

NASA has finally shared details about the first analysis of samples taken from the asteroid Bennu using the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft in 2020. While NASA scientists are still working on documenting the ...

In a competitive industry, PerkinElmer increases productivity in pharmaceutical laboratories and improves sample analysis throughput by completing two analytical techniques at the same time. The Pyris ...

Early analysis of the asteroid Bennu sample returned by NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission has revealed dust rich in carbon, nitrogen, and organic compounds, all of which are essential components for life as ...

Agricultural soil testing is critical to determining soil’s nutrient concentration and variability across your fields. It is ideal to test your fields’ soil at least every two to three years to inform ...

In this interview, News Med is talking to Gabriela Saldanha about DNA Fragmentation and Sanger Sequencing. What are Sanger sequencing and DNA-fragment analysis? Where are these analyses used? Sanger ...

CRISPR-based genome engineering revolutionized the gene-editing field by making experimental workflows considerably easier, faster, and more efficient than previous methods. Still, generating reliable ...

When astronauts returned from NASA’s final Apollo Moon mission in 1972, some of the samples they collected were sealed and carefully stored away in the hope that future researchers using advanced ...

The analysis shows that volcanic material in the sample contains sulfur compounds that are highly depleted of sulfur-33 (or 33S), one of four radioactively stable sulfur isotopes. The depleted 33S ...
