Colorectal cancer is treatable and curable when detected at early stages. However there is a lack of less invasive and more specific screening and diagnosis methods which would facilitate its prompt identification. Blood circulating autoantibodies which ar ...
In this short review, some recent advances are discussed in the development of computational techniques to perform large-scale screening of materials for energy-related applications. We focus on carbon capture and methane storage in different classes of na ...
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is found in three different forms in humans (ApoE2, ApoE3 and ApoE4), and ApoE polymorphism is recognized as a major risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). ApoE is involved in lipid and cholesterol transport, cell repair, and amy ...
In the work presented in this paper, a sensitivity analysis using the Morris screening method was carried out for a model of the Flooding Experiment with Blocked Arrays (FEBA) separate-effect test facility. The sensitivity analysis was conducted in the con ...
The Biomolecular Screening Facility (BSF) is a multidisciplinary laboratory created in 2006 at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) to perform medium and high throughput screening in life sciences-related projects. The BSF was conceived and ...
Cellular assays using label-free Digital Holographic Microscopy (DHM) have been previously validated for cell viability assays in a drug screening context. Our automated DHM system allows performing fast and cost-effective screening assays for a wide range ...
The present invention relates to precursor molecules for the synthesis of D-luciferin, or blocked D-luciferin and derivatives thereof, which are functionalized in different positions. Further, the use of functionalized precursor molecules for the synthesis ...
We report the discovery of benzothiazoles, a novel anti-mycobacterial series, identified from a whole cell based screening campaign. Benzothiazoles exert their bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) through potent inhibition of deca ...
The expectation that genomics would result in new therapeutic interventions for infectious diseases remains unfulfilled. In the post-genomic era, the decade immediately following the availability of the genome sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, tuberc ...
This article reviews important presentations from the 7th Screening Europe Conference, and extracts general trends and developments. Technological advances, as well as novel applications are discussed, thus providing an overview on state-of-the-art high-th ...
