The COVID-19 Pandemic has forced an aggressive global testing strategy. Most of the standard viral detection methods around the world are using real-time PCR. However, the operation and interpretation of real-time PCR test results require ... Read More

Many common globular proteins are very small in hydrodynamic size, with monomers rarely greater than 10 nm. Protein aggregates can easily reach large sizes, on the order of several hundred nm or larger, which complicate this already challenging ... Read More

Since the SARS-CoV-2 genome had been sequenced, researchers around the globe have been racing to develop a vaccine for COVID-19. Traditional vaccine development can take up to 10 years to produce a safe and effective vaccine. Due to the obvious ... Read More

An indepth look at Single-Molecule Localization Microscopy (SMLM), a super-resolution imaging technique that overcomes the diffraction limit of light, enabling imaging down to 20 nm resolution. This level of detail allows researchers to conduct in-... Read More
