Chromatrap, a business unit of Porvair Sciences, has published a new technical article that discusses and describes methodologies to increase Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) efficiency by making sure chromatin in your samples is sheared to the correct size range.
The authors describe how for every chromatin preparation it is essential to check the chromatin is sheared to fragments between 100-500 bp. They emphasise using a microfluidics platform is the most accurate measure of quantifying DNA. Problems associated with over or under sheared Chromatin fragments are discussed....

FLIR Systems has published a new paper that looks to strip away the technical jargon terms and explain infrared camera accuracy and measurement uncertainty in plain language.
Often explanations of infrared camera measurement accuracy involve complex terms and jargon that can be confusing and misleading. To trust measurements from infrared cameras when you don’t have a clear understanding of how their sensitivity and accuracy is derived means you are unlikely to get the best results. The authors of the paper explain infrared camera accuracy specifications and introduce the...
