LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Japanese scientists have developed a new test for the Ebola virus that can detect the disease within 30 minutes using simple equipment, the Nikkei business daily reported late Monday. Eiken Chemical Co.4549, -0.17% and researchers at Nagasaki University created the new test, which can be conducted using only a small, battery-powered warmer, making it ideal for places without stable power sources, the Nikkei said. The current test takes one to two hours and "requires dedicated equipment and a stable supply of electricity, making it difficult to use in regions with poor power infrastructure," the report said. Despite the news, shares of Eiken fell 0.2% in early Tuesday trading in Tokyo.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort!
