What are the Costs of Researching Cures?
Summary: Utilizing automated means, medical engineers can manufacture strands used in DNA or RNA synthesis. The process of researching the cure for a disease used to be more expensive than it is today. That’s because entire DNA molecules, rather than just strands, were manufactured and used for testing. This was highly inefficient. Most reactions need…

The Advantages to Oligo Synthesis
Written by: The Midland Certified Reagent Company Summary: Fighting disease involves synthesizing reactions in a laboratory using oligos. When scientists want to figure out how a disease works, and ostensibly how to fight it, they must analyze its structure and determine what it might be weak to. Then researchers must test those theories. Live testing…
