The new Avantor®recombinant protein A resin addresses these challenges....
If you have ever tried to measure formaldehyde by GC using an FID, you will have noticed that the response you get is significantly lower than you might have expected. The flame ionization detector (FID) is the most widely used detector in gas chromatography. It is extremely sensitive with a wide linear range for most organic compounds. However, compounds such as oxygenates, ethers, amides and other organic compounds containing heteroatoms (e.g. O, N, S, Cl, Si), generate a lower or sometimes negligible response....
The accurate identification of biomarkers in biological samples – such as volatiles in breath, saliva and urine – has the potential to provide rapid, minimally-invasive disease diagnosis. However, diagnostic compounds are rarely of high abundance in these complex matrices, so a sensitive and comprehensive approach is required to discover the maximum number of compounds in a realistic run time. Attend this free-of-charge webinar...

Labs working to combat COVID-19 will benefit from this initiative, as CytoSMART aims to reduce the huge workload currently facing researchers on projects vital to controlling the disease. “We aim to do our part to assist researchers in minimizing the time they have to spend in high-contamination labs, by providing them with remote video access to evaluate the status of their cell cultures. The video data is used to remotely monitor the cytopathic effect, this way researchers know when it’s the right time to harvest the virus....
The movements of cell muscles in the form of tiny filaments of proteins have been visualised at unprecedented detail by University of Warwick scientists. In a study published in the Biophysical Journal, scientists from the University’s Department of Physics and Warwick Medical School have used a new microscopy technique to analyse the molecular motors inside cells that allow them to move and reshape themselves, potentially providing new insights that could inform the development of new smart materials....
Self-contained Priorclave benchtop research laboratory autoclaves are the perfect choice for start-up laboratories, established labs with low sterilising throughputs as well as lab managers wanting a more affordable, simple to operate and easy to install steam steriliser; simply plug directly into an appropriate 230v power socket. Available in 40L and 60L chamber capacity designs, they are the smallest in the Priorclave range of autoclaves...
