These innovative testes, derived from meticulously cultured mouse cells, closely mimic the structure of natural testes, featuring the complex network of sperm tubes essential for reproduction.
Understand how liver function tests assess liver health, what ALT, AST, bilirubin, ALP, albumin, and GGT measure, and why these blood tests matter.
Let's talk about Type 2 diabetes, its symptoms, risk factors, diagnosis, and the laboratory tests, including HbA1c and blood glucose, that help detect and monitor the condition.
Talk about hepatitis testing, including blood tests for hepatitis A, B, C, D and E, common markers, liver tests, and what positive or negative results mean.
See what thyroid function tests measure, including TSH, Free T3, and Free T4. Learn how these blood tests diagnose thyroid disorders and monitor thyroid health.
HIV testing is the process of determining whether a person has been infected with human immunodeficiency virus. Depending on the test, HIV testing can detect antibodies produced by the immune system, the HIV p24 antigen, or HIV RNA. Different tests have different detection window periods, and a reactive screening result requires appropriate follow-up testing before an HIV diagnosis is established.
See what kidney function tests measure, including creatinine, eGFR, and urinalysis. Discover how these tests help detect kidney disease and monitor kidney health.
How is sickle cell disease diagnosed? See the laboratory tests used to identify haemoglobin variants and understand common sickle cell results.
Animal models have traditionally served as the cornerstone of drug safety evaluation; however, major translational challenges persist due to interspecies differences in physiology, metabolism, and genetic regulation. Many compounds demonstrating favorable toxicity profiles in animals later fail during human trials or are withdrawn post-marketing due to unforeseen adverse effects, especially hepatotoxicity and cardiotoxicity (Lee et al., 2025).
See how the PSA blood test works, what causes elevated PSA levels, and how this important laboratory test supports prostate health and early cancer detection.
A Full Blood Count (FBC) is a blood test that measures different types of blood cells and related parameters, including red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, haemoglobin, haematocrit and red blood cell indices. It can help healthcare professionals investigate conditions such as anaemia, infection, inflammation and certain blood disorders.
Traditionally, Forensic Science relies on Human DNA for contact evidence and individual identification, but limitation arises when the blood cells obtained from the crime scene are degraded or not.
Many physical and computational systems exhibit a familiar behavior: ordered states gradually decay in the presence of noise. Examples appear across science:
Many times, individuals feel fearful or extremely worried about cancer testing. The regular tests and scans that patients living with any cancer diagnosis have to undergo, to monitor their condition, can make them feel anxious before, during, or after a scan or a follow-up test
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetic disorder in which the heart muscle becomes thicker and stiffer, a condition called hypertrophy. (1) The thickened heart muscle makes it harder for the heart to work properly. Many individuals with HCM do not realize that they have it.
ISO/IEC 17025 compliance defines how testing and calibration laboratories demonstrate technical competence. In India, the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) grants accreditation based on this international standard (ISO, 2017).
The dark fantasy adventure “Alice in Wonderland” has gained widespread appreciation among audiences. However, the Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AWS), a brain-related condition, is not something anyone would ever love to experience or witness.
India’s space program, led by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), has evolved from modest experimental launches into a globally recognized scientific and technological enterprise.
Out of so many mental disorders, a rare disorder is the Fregoli delusion or Fregoli syndrome (FS), in which an individual holds a delusional belief that different people are in fact a single person, who keeps on changing appearances quickly or is in disguise. People affected with this condition often experience anxiety, paranoia, and agitation. It can impact the patient’s mental health and their safety and the safety of others.
