Professor Simona Francese and her team at Sheffield Hallam University have developed a groundbreaking test to use sweat from a woman&#8217;s fingertip to detect breast cancer. Supported by a long-lasting collaborative relationship with Waters and using a suite of Waters instruments, this remarkable discovery is core to our mission to empower our customers with the innovation and insights that will revolutionize human health.<\/h2>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image6401_abaaa1-a1 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image6401_abaaa1-a1\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/professor-simona-francese-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"professor simona francese, sheffield hallam university\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-6409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/professor-simona-francese-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/professor-simona-francese-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.waters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/professor-simona-francese.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption>Professor Simona Francese, Sheffield Hallam University<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The novel technique is still in an early development stage, but the results are very promising. Samples of fingertip smears taken from a group of women with benign, early, or metastatic breast cancer were correctly differentiated in relation to each condition with 97.8% accuracy. Larger cohort sampling is planned. If the method continues to hold at scale, screening and diagnosis of breast cancer will become painless, more widely accessible, as well as likely to permit monitoring chemotherapy treatment progression.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading6401_0fedba-19\"><strong>Breast cancer affects 2.3 million women across the world every year and causes more than 600,000 deaths<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world.

innovation with the introduction of a targeted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/nextgen\/us\/en\/products\/mass-spectrometry-systems\/targeted-msi.html\">MS imaging solution<\/a>. This new product combines our DESI XS imaging source (of which we are the sole source provider in the market) with our signature <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/nextgen\/us\/en\/products\/mass-spectrometry-systems\/xevo-tq-absolute.html\">Xevo<\/a>\u2122 TQ Absolute Tandem Quadruple (TQ) Mass Spectrometer which is renowned for its sensitivity and speed. For scientists in early pharmaceutical drug development, this instrument provides the ability to visually biolocalise compounds at therapeutic and low levels which have up until now been impossible to visualize. These solutions deliver results up to five times faster and are more sensitive than discovery-grade HRMS imaging systems. Pharmaceutical scientists rely on them to choose drug candidates for further investigation and quick development into the market. In 2021, Waters was the first to introduce the use of multi-reflecting time-of-flight technology with our SELECT SERIES\u2122 MRT.
