A new study into the long-term health impacts of coronavirus has found changes in the blood after Covid-19 that might pinpoint patients at risk of ongoing lung disease.
Analytik Jena will be presenting new automation solutions for laboratory workflows at the SLAS 2026 International Conference & Exhibition (February 7–11). A particular highlight is the launch of the PULSEspencer R – the first model in a digital and contactless dispenser series in the company's portfolio.
Researchers have uncovered how a high-risk class of genetic vectors can efficiently spread antibiotic resistance within the gut, enabling even highly virulent bacteria to acquire drug resistance.
The Blood Transfusion service at Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (ABUHB) has implemented Clinisys WinPath LIMS, marking the first deployment of this system in Wales.
Analytical and measurement technology copany Horiba has obtained CE IVDR certification for its new Yumizen H500 CRP benchtop hematology analyzer, designed for small laboratories.
Non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain or weight loss can be caused by cancer, another serious condition or something completely harmless. A blood test can help provide relevant information.
Researchers have discovered that amyloid-β deposits - similar to those found in Alzheimer’s disease - may contribute to the development of preeclampsia during pregnancy.
Siemens Healthineers, with funding from the Gates Foundation, plans to develop artificial intelligence (AI) to enable earlier prediction of pre-eclampsia and anemia in low-resource settings.
DNA analysis of colorectal polyps provides important additional information on the development of these polyps and colorectal cancer, research finds. This leads to better diagnostics and treatment.
An international study shows that Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers can be accurately detected using simple finger-prick blood samples that can be collected at home and mailed to a laboratory.
With antimicrobial resistance causing over 5 million deaths annually, rapid outbreak detection is critical. A German lab demonstrates how FTIR spectroscopy can transform hospital infection control.
A sample of inequality: A new study shows that AI models can infer demographic information from pathology slides, leading to bias in cancer diagnosis among different populations.
Now, a research team has developed a novel diagnostic approach that enables the rapid and simultaneous detection of both antibiotic resistance and high virulence in Klebsiella pneumoniae.
New research shows that a harmless strain of Klebsiella – discovered by chance in laboratory experiments – can eliminate infections and reduce gut inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
A simple blood test that can very accurately predict the chance of survival with good recovery could be of great significance for patients in intensive care after a cardiac arrest.
Even minor functional impairments of the kidneys can have serious consequences for patients after major surgery. New biomarkers could help identify high-risk patients at an early stage.
Microplastics pose a human health risk in more ways than one, a new study reveals: not only do the particles harbor pathogenic bacteria, they may also help the spread of antimicrobial resistance.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a hospital-acquired bacterium that causes serious infections, can move from the lungs to the gut inside the same patient, raising the risk of sepsis, new research reveals.
Depression is not only a disease of the mind or the brain, a new study finds: a research team has revealed deep connections to abnormalities in the body's overall immune response.
A team of researchers comprehensively catalogued a new collection of bacteria-eating viruses called phages. These phages could be used to combat Klebsiella pneumoniae - a serious threat in hospitals.
Delivering a pathology service in resource-constrained locations and developing countries remains a challenge. Cost is a significant barrier, as is the availability of equipment, trained staff and technical and IT support can also hinder a desire from clinicians and pathologists to give their patients a high level of service to help their diagnosis and recovery. The subject was tackled in a…
Researchers have created a system that uses generative AI to study the shape and structure of blood cells, and spot unusual or rare cells that may indicate disease such as leukaemia.
The NanoZoomer S540MD by Hamamatsu is engineered with the lab in mind for a seamless workflow. Featuring compatibility with staining racks, fast slide scanning, exceptional image quality, and an intuitive touchscreen interface, this high-capacity scanner is built to handle the needs of the clinical pathology laboratory.
Using a bioengineered bone marrow model, researchers were able to provide key new information on the efficacy and safety of CAR T-cell therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), the most common leukaemia in adults.
Most patients with metastatic colorectal cancer do not respond to immunotherapy—but why? A new study shows how the tumours block the immune system through two complementary mechanisms.
