Post Views: 108 Microbes are all around us, yet much about them remains a mystery. Traditional methods provide only a limited view of microorganisms’ vast range and complex functions. However, new sequencing technologies are unravelling these microscopic mysteries. From antibiotic resistance to bioremediation, this growing understanding promises a resurgence in microbiology— and a safer, healthier…
Post Views: 496 Blood carries oxygen, minerals, and waste materials throughout the body. It is a complex combination of cells, plasma, and proteins that work together to keep you healthy. A single blood tube contains an abundance of information about our health and well-being. By analysing the different components of blood, we can learn about…
Post Views: 90 The cell cycle is a fundamental process that governs the growth and reproduction of all living organisms. It is a meticulously arranged sequence of events that ensures the accurate duplication of genetic material and the division of a single cell into two identical daughter cells. Understanding the cell cycle is crucial in…

Post Views: 437 Our bodies are complex systems that are always working to stay balanced. At the centre of this balance is a process called oxidative stress. It can affect different aspects of our health, including the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Understanding oxidative stress and its connection to GI diseases is not merely a scientific curiosity;…
Post Views: 403 Today, advanced medical research and innovative molecular diagnostic technologies can efficiently control, treat and even cure many deadly diseases. Among them is the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, commonly known as HIV, which, as the name suggests, attacks our immune system. Often confused with AIDS (we debunk this myth in one of our previous…
Post Views: 456 Usually, when you hear the word “cancer”, the conversation most likely involves the mention of a biopsy. Tumour or tissue biopsies form early investigations of malignancy. It’s the first thing a doctor would recommend when a patient displays related symptoms and/or has a suspicious-looking lump. A tissue biopsy involves extracting cells from…
Post Views: 400 Respiratory viruses, such as influenza, have posed a significant health concern due to their ability to trigger widespread illness and even pandemics. The healthcare sector plays a vital role in understanding these viruses and their impact on the human body. One fascinating aspect that researchers have been exploring is the relationship between…
Post Views: 554 Oxidative stress, though often overlooked, is closely linked to our well-being and quietly influences our health. It occurs when there’s an imbalance between the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and the body’s ability to counteract their harmful effects. While ROS are natural byproducts of essential cellular processes, excessive levels cause serious…
