This week's pot-pourri for the laboratory includes a freeze dryer, a centrifugal concentrator, a chemical reaction system, a radio transmitting data logger and a miniature spectrophotometer.
Browsing amongst the new molecular tools, the reader can find a high-throughput DNA sequencing and gene analysis system, electroelution capsules, a gel documentation workstation and a blunt PCR cloning system.
Chromatography selections for this issue include a system designed to increase the productivity of automated microbore analysis, a column for capillary electrochromatography and chromatography data system software.
Antibodies and assays are on review in this issue, including two human platelet antibodies, a benchtop antibody production system, several new peptide inhibitors and fluorogenic substrates for measuring apoptosis enzymes.
Here are a few items that may be exhibited at the annual FASEB meeting being held in New Orleans this month – a new expression detection system, a CO2 incubator, a protein sequencing system and conductive pipettes.
Fluorescence systems that allow cells in living organisms to be studied are among the products featured in this roundup. There's also a compact centrifuge that fits into a drawer, and the latest reagents, kits and instruments.
This edition offers new equipment and reagents to make gene hunting easier, including multiple sequence alignment software, a new DNA electrophoresis system, an in situ detection system and a plant DNA extraction system.
New programs and updates for this software roundup include those that can simulate clinical drug trials, perform computational chemistry functions, image analysis and processing, as well as check scientific spelling.
The main focus for this issue is peptides with some items for proteins thrown in as well. Items include a multimode fraction collector, services for custom peptide synthesis and protein immunology. Peptide and protein epitope tags
This product update shows its new style but maintains its old function of providing information on products, such as a video tape analysis system, new autofluorescent proteins, and a microplate and reagent handling system.
