Merck Millipore, has launched Simplicon™ RNA Reprogramming Technology, which uses synthetic self-replicating RNA to create large numbers of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using a single transfection step.
This efficient reprogramming of somatic cells is accomplished without viral intermediates or host genome integration, offering a more defined and safer system for iPSC generation. "For stem cell researchers using iPSCs to study disease, differentiation and regenerative medicine, there's a real need for a reprogramming method that's as efficient as virus-based techniques yet as safe as non-viral methods," said Christophe Couturier, Head of Bioscience, Merck Millipore...

We think our TruLab line, with its flexibility, stable measurements, and 15 new sensor options, are going to be another valuable tool for laboratories.” While the TruLab 1110 is ideal for routine pH/mV lab measurements where a robust workhorse meter is required, the TruLab 1310 and 1310P (with printer) provides precise lab measurements and...
Its space saving stackable design allows you to make the most of your lab space and the modular design allows for different combinations to suit single and multiple GC applications.
Looking to the future, the F-DGSi Modular Alliance Series can also accommodate Helium to Hydrogen conversion as natural resources run low and costs rise, with our high purity H2 generator model WM-H2. Hydrogen provides many advantages over helium including, higher resolution, shorter run times, longer column life, and cost savings. Many instrument manufacturers now provide resources to make switching carrier gas easier....
Proteins are seldom stable outside of their native environments and tend to lose activity due to proteolysis, aggregation, etc. To counter this phenomenon and increase their shelf life, different compounds are routinely used as additives.
This problem however is even more pronounced in dilute protein solutions which need the additional support of carrier proteins to help them survive the non-native storage conditions. The most commonly used carrier protein is purified Bovine serum Albumin (BSA). However, different experimental requirements warrant the use of alternative carrier proteins....
