Universal detector made of DNA building blocks

From PhysOrg.com:

A method for detecting such diverse substances as antibiotics, narcotics and explosives – a universal detector, so to speak – has been developed by German researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz.

DNA can quantum-mechanically teleport itself? A Nobel laureate claims he’s proven it happens….

From Kurzweil.net:

A Nobel prizewinner is reporting that DNA can be generated from its teleported “quantum imprint”

A STORM of scepticism has greeted experimental results emerging from the lab of a Nobel laureate which, if confirmed, would shake the foundations of several fields of science. “If the results are correct,” says theoretical chemist Jeff Reimers of the University of Sydney, Australia, “these would be the most significant experiments performed in the past 90 years, demanding re-evaluation of the whole conceptual framework of modern chemistry.”

Quantum mechanics has answer to DNA damage

From Times of India:

Now, quantum mechanics is all set to decode DNA damage and pave the way for its repair. This can, in fact, prevent the damage that causes mutation in human body and leads to different disorders like cancer, heart disease and other forms of neuro-degenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease.
