The IAEA is calling on interested research institutes to join a new coordinated research project (CRP) on harmonization of small specimen test techniques for fusion applications. Technologies required ...

Pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing is a growing area of personalized medicine with demonstrated clinical utility in improving patient outcomes in oncology. PGx testing of pharmacogenes affecting drug ...

RT-PCR, antigen and antibody testing; each has its niche and each has a flaw. But what are the key differences between each of these tests and what are the key things to consider when selecting the ...

A time domain reflectometer (TDR) measures reflections along a cable. It is similar in principle to radar. To measure those reflections, the TDR transmits an incident signal into the cable and watches ...

A four-year IAEA project involving nine research institutes resulted in the preparation of a set of guidelines aimed at standardizing small specimen test techniques (SSTT) for reference structural ...

Molecular testing, or molecular diagnostics, refers to a group of tests that look at the genetic material in a specimen. It can detect genetic risk factors for certain diseases or provide evidence of ...

Eddy current non-destructive testing (ECT) exploits electromagnetic induction to detect subsurface defects in conductive materials without requiring disassembly or contact. An alternating current in a ...

Design-for-test, or DFT, should facilitate high-quality test, not change the design. Test techniques and strategies need to supply a high-quality test that screens out defective devices, avoiding ...

Passive Entry Passive Start (PEPS) technology has become standard in the automotive market for keyless operation. A secure wireless communication system, PEPS enables you to lock and unlock the ...
