AMSBIO has introduced an expanded range of Adeno-associated virus (AAV) cloning and packaging services.
Adeno-associated viruses are single-stranded DNA viruses that can infect a broad range of cell types including dividing and non-dividing cells and are, therefore, widely used vehicles for gene delivery. Clinical trials have not only found AAV to be consistently safe and stable, but their vectors are capable of causing long-term expression in human cells. Therefore, AAV vectors have many advantages that many other vectors do not. To date, recombinant AAV...
The ChilliBlock from Asynt is a new modular system purpose designed for precise, controlled cooling and heating of biological samples in microplates, vials and Eppendorf tubes.
