A Novel Method for Achieving Precision and Reproducibility in a 1

Unknown authors · 2025

Researchers developed and compared two methods for detecting clarithromycin antibiotic levels in blood plasma: traditional laboratory equipment and a new portable electrochemical sensor.

Researchers exposed zebrafish embryos to 900 MHz radiofrequency radiation (similar to older cell phone frequencies) for 30 or 60 minutes daily during development. The exposure disrupted genes controlling fat storage and blood sugar regulation, while increasing oxidative stress markers. This suggests RF radiation during early development may contribute to metabolic problems later in life.
