may be sufficient Into another 2 or 3 years of waiting before you have your first test to predict how long it has left to live. To work on his development are two researchers at the University of Lancaster (UK), Aneta Stefanovska and Peter McClintock, that instead of focusing on what until now has been considered the primary marker of aging cell, the length of chromosomes, have focused their attention on endothelial cells present in the skin, a sort of reservoir of all possible stem cells of the human organism, developing a non-invasive method based on the use of laser useful both to calculate how much time left to live, and to identify certain diseases, such as cancer and seed senile.
Into The generator of the laser light is inserted into a device similar to a watch worn on the wrist. The generated pulse is transmitted to the whole body and the measurement of the flow and of the oscillations induced in endothelial cells, index of their activity and health status. The values ??obtained vary from 100, corresponding to a perfect health, to 0, corresponding to death. Intermediate values ??correspond to states of health gradually worse as fall and on their basis it is possible to calculate how much time left to live. Now the two researchers, who have already patented the tool, are perfecting it, and ensure that at the end of their studies, the results obtained are reproducible.
