Despite advancements in medicine and global efforts to combat the disease, malaria remains a leading cause of illness and mortality, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. This article explores the […]
 Image: newcomersupply.com  Safranin staining is a widely used technique in the field of biology and histology that allows researchers to visualize and study various biological structures with enhanced contrast. This staining method utilizes safranin, a red dye derived from saffron, which selectively binds to specific cellular components, providing […]
Crystal structure of Streptococcus thermophilus Cas9 in complex with AGGA PAM. Source: RCSB PDB Â Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats or CRISPR is a new-generation gene editing system. This technique was adapted from the self-defensive mechanism of the bacteria. CRISPR is a repetitive DNA sequence that was observed in […]
A baby with DNA of three people were born in UK by IVF. This was done with a technique called mitochondrial donation treatment (MDT), which uses the tissues from the egg of healthy females (donors) to create embryos using IVF. The major advantage of this technique is the lack […]
Deoxyribonucleic Acid, or DNA for short, is often referred to as the blueprint of life. It is the genetic material that makes up all living organisms, from single-celled bacteria to complex multicellular animals like humans. DNA contains the instructions that determine an organism’s traits, such as eye color, height, and […]
The Human Genome Project was a major scientific study in the history of life-sciences. This project was lead to many biological discoveries which can aid the future research and developments. The aim of the project was to study all the DNA or Genomes of the selected set of organisms. This […]
H3N2 is an Influenza A variant virus. It is called a variant because it is commonly present in pigs but when it is present among humans, it is called a “variant”. This virus were first identified in pigs of U.S in 2010. Since 2010, there were multiple outbreaks, almost 309 […]
Blood, “The River of Life” as it supports life. It contains the nutrients and oxygen that support living organisms. The cells in the blood are generally synthesized in the bone marrow by a process called haematopoiesis. Blood contains three types of blood cells, namely Erythrocytes or RBC, Leukocytes or […]
Biotechnology is a leading field in the world. Biotechnology is directly and indirectly involved in daily life. It supports not only humans but the whole life on earth. It has various branches including Animal Biotechnology, Plant Biotechnology, Medical Biotechnology, Food & Diary Biotechnology, etc. But everyone doubts when Biotechnology […]
In Biology, specifically in Microbiology Gram Staining is an inevitable technique. It was introduced in the year 1884 by Hans Christian Gram. This staining process can classify a bacteria into Gram Positive and Gram Negative. It can be used as a step in various bacterial diagnosis.   Table of Contents […]
