Some Scum! Microbe in Pond Scum Enlisted in New Cancer Test
newswise.com — “Scientists are enlisting the living, self-propelled microbes found in pond scum — the pea-green surface slicks that form on ponds — in the development of a long-awaited new test to detect the cells that spread cancer through the bloodstream from the original tumor to new sites in the body. They presented the information here today at the 243rd National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world’s largest scientific society.” View full resource at newswise.com
