Molecular assay

A molecular assay is a laboratory test that detects and measures specific molecules, such as DNA, RNA, or proteins, in a sample. It helps identify the presence of pathogens, genetic information, or markers associated with diseases. By analyzing these molecules, scientists can diagnose infections, genetic disorders, or other health conditions accurately and quickly. Molecular assays are essential tools in modern medicine because they provide detailed, precise information about what is happening at a molecular level within the body.
