Brain Signal IDs Responders To Fast-Acting Antidepressant
Scientists have discovered a biological marker that may help to identify which depressed patients will respond to an experimental, rapid-acting antidepressant. The brain signal, detectable by noninvasive imaging, also holds clues to the agent's underlying mechanism, which are vital for drug development, say National Institutes of Health researchers.

New Look At Multitalented Protein Sheds Light On Mysteries Of HIV
New insights into the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection process, which leads to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), may now be possible through a research method recently developed in part at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), where scientists have glimpsed an important protein molecule's behavior with unprecedented clarity.

Virus Engineered To Express Melanin Offers New Possibilities To Diagnose And Treat Solid Tumor Cancers
In a study released today in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), entitled "Vaccinia virus mediated melanin production allows MR and optoacoustic deep tissue imaging and laser induced thermotherapy of cancer," scientists combined the natural imaging potential of melanin with recombinant Vaccinia viruses' ability to selectively enter and replicate within tumor cells.

White Paper: Capillary Electrophoresis — A Simple Technique
In 1989, Beckman Instruments introduced the first fully automated capillary electrophoresis instrument (P/ACE™ 2000) to the scientific community. At that time, CE demonstrated exceptional resolving of selected compounds, but the new technology lacked a track record of applications. By Beckman Coulter, Inc.
