Researchers from Karl Landsteiner University of Health Sciences have uncovered a new form of a virus that infects bacteria. An international team based in Austria has unearthed a previously unknown type of virus in samples of human bodily fluids. The researchers were looking for viruses that infect bacteria – known as bacteriophages – with an emphasis on those that attack the Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacterium found in the human gut....
Sygnature Discovery has added in-house high-throughput screening (HTS) to its range of drug discovery services. This is backed up by its new Leadfinder compound library. HTS allows many thousands of molecules to be tested for activity in a short period of time, providing a rapid way of identifying starting points for drug discovery programmes. Sygnature’s new HTS system combines Titian Mosaic sample management technology with an automation platform....
Lab Innovations celebrated its 8th edition on 30 & 31 October 2019, trumping all records for the event. Attracting 3,860 attendees - an impressive 24% increase on the previous year - this makes it the largest Lab Innovations to date. Over 160 exhibitors displayed a diverse and innovative product offering to visitors from more sectors than ever before, emphasising the event’s place as the UK’s largest annual trade exhibition dedicated to the entire laboratory industry....
A new type of microscopy is helping to unlock the secrets of the zebrafish’s heart – which could also teach us more about how human hearts form, grow and heal. In a new paper published recently in the journal Nature Communications, researchers from the Universities of Glasgow and Edinburgh describe how they have developed a new method to capture 3D video images of the growing hearts of zebrafish embryos for the first time....
Thermo Scientific Anionic Pesticides Explorer delivers high-throughput detection, identification and quantification of anionic polar pesticides in compliance with the latest EU regulations. A new, validated ion chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (IC-MS/MS) analytical workflow is designed to enable food testing laboratories to overcome the challenges associated with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis of polar anionic pesticides...
Environmental impact is becoming a significant factor in the selection of suppliers even in preclinical imaging. The introduction of liquid helium free, high-end MRI systems by MR Solutions substantially reduces the environmental impact when compared to competitor units. The key factor is dispensing with the liquid helium bath which cools the magnet down in traditional systems to minus 269°C when it becomes superconducting and boosts the power of the magnet....
Mesa Laboratories, Inc., a diversified supplier of quality control instruments and consumables to highly regulated markets has announced the acquisition of Gyros Protein Technologies Holding AB. GPT is headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden and is a leading provider of Immunoassay and Peptide Synthesis solutions that accelerate the discovery, development and manufacturing of biotherapeutics...
