New near-infrared probe may aid in early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease

Inside the body, some seemingly harmless proteins have sinister potential. In the case of Alzheimer's disease, the amyloid-beta (Aβ) protein, which is vital for brain growth, can become tainted and destroy cells, which leads to forgetfulness and memory loss.
