U6 of Nanbiosis ICTS has been acknowledged for its participation in an article published by the Human Molecular Genetics Group of Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL)

NANBIOSIS ICTS coordination equipment has recently received from researchers of Human Molecular Genetics Group of Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) a publication mentioning NANBIOSIS in the Acknowledgements for its participation in the results of its investigations. The article has been publish by the journal Human Reproduction of OXFORD UNIV PRESS  with Quartile 1/ Decile 1.

The study carried out by  Maria Barcelo, Ana Mata, Lluís Bassas, and Sara Larriba demonstrates the potential of several miRNAs contained in small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) of seminal fluid as sensitive and specific biomarkers for selecting those azoospermic individuals with real chances of obtaining spermatozoa from the testicular biopsy. The nanoparticle tracking analysis was performed by the ICTS NANBIOSIS  U6 Biomaterial Processing and Nanostructuring Unit.
