Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome affecting 6.2 million people in the United States [1]. The diagnosis of heart failure is challenging as patients usually present non-specific symptoms, which are often shared by other diseases. Both B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and the N-terminal pro BNP (NT-proBNP) are widely used as biomarkers to diagnose […]
What is Fentanyl? Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that was first developed in 1959 and introduced in the 1960s as an intravenous anesthetic. Fentanyl was also used for pain management as a transdermal patch in cancer patients. It is 50-100 times stronger than morphine. As an illicit drug, fentanyl is added to heroin to increase potency. […]
Jant Pharmacal is launching a brand new line of Custom Panels for RT-PCR. Since 1986, Jant has served lab and Point-of-Care sectors in the medical industry.
In the field of molecular diagnostics, custom panels have emerged as an essential tool for targeted detection of nucleic acids. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been widely used to detect and quantify viral, bacterial, and genetic targets. However, commercial panels may not always satisfy the specific testing requirements of a particular molecular laboratory. Therefore, […]

UPDATED: 7/17/2023 The science of toxicology combines biology, chemistry, physiology, pharmacology, and other related disciplines to study the effects of different substances on the body. Toxicologists work in varied fields such as forensics, environmental science, and medicine. The science is commonly utilized in law enforcement, disease identification, and assessments of ecological conditions. Poisons A popular […]
Cellular and morphological analyses conducted during hematology testing involve several delicate steps that require accurate and efficient implementation. [1] Often, these tests are time-sensitive as they are crucial for the screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of patient medical conditions. Utilizing the right equipment is, therefore, essential to optimizing hematology analysis workflows, which in turn will yield […]
Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (real-time PCR) has revolutionized the diagnosis and management of infectious diseases in acute care settings. Through the coupling of the amplification and direct detection of target microbial DNA in a single reaction vessel, real-time PCR drastically reduces the need for microbial culture methods, decreases wait times required for pathogen detection, and […]
