October 9, 2008 — Stool DNA testing is a new approach to screening for colorectal cancer, but it is an evolving technology. A study has found that the first-generation stool DNA test (SDT-1) is not ...

June 8, 2009 (Chicago, Illinois) – Detection of "long DNA" in the stool, when combined with fecal occult blood testing, detects colorectal cancers with a specificity of 90%. This approach is "among ...

Pattern of mismatch repair proteins in colorectal cancer patients in tertiary cancer center. Identification of the epigenetic mechanism for colorectal cancer stem cell regulation through the ...

Scientists have developed a breakthrough method to track diet using stool metagenomic data. This non-invasive, data-driven approach offers an objective alternative to traditional food diaries and ...

Of the 9989 participants who could be evaluated, 65 (0.7%) had colorectal cancer and 757 (7.6%) had advanced precancerous lesions (advanced adenomas or sessile serrated polyps measuring ≥1 cm in the ...

Stool-based DNA testing can help bridge CRC screening gaps between rural and urban populations by providing timely follow-up. The study found no significant difference in follow-up times for ...

A next-generation multitarget stool DNA test, including assessments of DNA molecular markers and hemoglobin level, was developed to improve the performance of colorectal cancer screening, primarily ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Metabolism, researchers presented a method to quantify food-derived deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in human stool metagenomes using a computationally ...

Scientists from South Korea developed a new PCR-based method for MST of human fecal matter in water in the environment and treatment plants. Applying this method could boost the detection of a greater ...

SEATTLE – Scientists have developed a breakthrough method to track diet using stool metagenomic data. Developed by researchers at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB), the new method, called MEDI ...
