Catching the Tail on mRNA Key to Magnetic Particle Separation for Battling Covid-19
By Lluis M. Martínez, SEPMAG Chief Scientific Officer
The “central dogma” states that DNA gets transcribed into mRNA which is then translated into a protein. The term mRNA stands for messenger ribonucleic acid as it is the messenger between the directions of DNA and the creation of proteins by the ribosome. Researchers and industry laboratories extract mRNA from cells to study processes occurring in the cell. […]
