Featuring cell tissue culture, this edition of product review offers a vibrating microtome, enclosed tissue processing, a rotary cell culture system, a microhomogenizer, and a reference guide to cell lines and hybridomas.
Although the subject is somewhat fragmented, product review comes in with a full line-up of products - a DNA sequencer, sequence analysis software, modified nucleic acids and amino acids and an electroporator.
Product review puts image analysis on stage - there is an epifluorescence illuminator, an inverted fluorescence microscope, a high-performance digital camera and an environmental scanning electron microscope.
From Berlin to SanFrancisco researchers can find an abundance of new products such as DNA sequencers, amplification reagents, an electroporator and a checkerboard hybridization system.
Fluorescence polarization (FP) equilibrium binding assays differ from other types of binding studies in one important regard: they require no steps to separate free from bound tracer and are therefore fast, simple and accurate.
Adding culture to microbiology, product review presents a portable case for microbial decontamination, a HEPA-filtered infrared CO2 incubator, a modular fermentor, and a family of X-ray detectors for electron microscopes.
Here are some undiluted solutions to your immunology needs —an anti-fluoroscein single-chain antibody, monoclonal antibodies to Stat proteins 1–6 and a variety of microplate technologies.
Featured this week in product review are gel analysis systems for molecular biology research, cultureware for neuronal cells, an optical biosensor system and a molecular weight analyser.
With a few keystrokes and mouse button clicks on a UNIX workstation, the entire Protein Data Bank archive is now available for searching and displaying the three-dimensional protein structures contained within.
Cells and tissues are under scrutiny for our cell biology feature. This weeks episode has five new protein kinases, mammalian expression vectors, cell death detection ELISA and proliferating human mesangial cells.
For your liquid handling consideration — a series of robotic sample processors, a rheological characterization instrument, a multichannel pump system and solvent-safe pipettes.
Take this exit on the information superhighway to find software for a digital notary system, automated curve fitting, ELISA data analysis and graphical and statistical analysis.
This week focuses on laser optics. A whole spectrum of accoutrements including a HeNe laser, an optical design tool system, a particle sizer and personal densitometer.
Check the budget to see if there is room for a MALDI/TOF peptide sequencer, cytoskeletal proteins, a protein purification system, structural clustering software or even an API-electrospray LC/MS system.
The Mammalian Comparative Database provides genetic maps of mammalian species. Comparative maps are valuable aids for predicting linkages, developing animal models and studying genome organization and evolution.
