CentTubeGroupUnflat Announcing High Quality Borosilicate Glass Centrifuge Tubes
Chemists are finding the optimal centrifuge tubes they need at Kimble Chase, the largest manufacturer of laboratory glassware products in the world.
  • FDA Approves New Seasonal Influenza Vaccine Made Using Novel Technology

    The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently announced that it has approved Flublok, the first trivalent influenza vaccine made using an insect virus (baculovirus) expression system and recombinant DNA technology. Flublok is approved for the prevention of seasonal influenza in people 18 through 49 years of age.

  • Laser Spotlight Reveals Machine 'Climbing' DNA

    The experiments, reported in this week's Science, use laser light to generate very bright patches close to single cells. When coupled with fluorescent tags this 'spotlight' makes it possible to image the inner workings of cells fast enough to see how the molecular machines inside change size, shape, and composition in the presence of DNA.

  • Researchers Develop Method To Grow Artificial Tissues With Embedded Nanoscale sensors

    A multi-institutional research team has developed a method for embedding networks of biocompatible nanoscale wires within engineered tissues. These networks—which mark the first time that electronics and tissue have been truly merged in 3D—allow direct tissue sensing and potentially stimulation, a potential boon for development of engineered tissues that incorporate capabilities for monitoring and stimulation, and of devices for screening new drugs.

DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING PRODUCTS

Cellulosic, polypropylene or glass fiber depth filter media clarify or retain agglomerates and macromolecules. Protect downstream membrane filters and columns. Multiple inlet / outlet connections including sanitary tri-clamp, hose barbs, quick connectors, elbows or NPT. Disc for small volume, up to full sized Cartridges and capsules for process scale operations.

ZenPure designs, mold-manufactures and injects its own filter components. Engineering, product development and filter production under ISO standards facilitate full quality audit and traceability to meet the highest industry standards. Validation support documentation is available for appropriate products.

The Avanti J-30I High-Performance Centrifuge System gives you the fastest separations possible - in the shortest amount of time. Swinging-bucket and fixed-angle rotors provide maximum separation forces in excess of 100,000 x g at speeds up to 30,000 rpm.

The Hamilton PRP™-C18 is a new HPLC column designed to provide high-efficiency, reversed-phase separations over an extended column life in nearly any mobile phase or pH.

The ARTeSYN DRV is designed to be a drop in replacement for your existing diaphragm valves, but with an easy to remove and replace flow through liner.

PureFlo hydrophobic polyethylene (PE) membrane filters, gamma compatible and ideal alternative to PVDF. Mold injected capsules with multiple inlet / outlet options including sanitary ‘T’ clamps, hose barbs, quick sanitary connectors, elbows and threads. Almost any combination of connecting inlet or outlet is possible with over 30 options. High gas flow at low differential pressure due to encapsulation geometries and polyethylene (PE) membrane. Full validation supporting documents are available. Ideal for tube sets and hook up to bioreactors, fermenters, biocontainer, biobags, wave bags or single use fermenters.

ZenPure’s in-company mold design and injection capabilities, filter production and quality assurance facilitate manufacturing audit and product traceability that meet the highest industry standards.

ÄKTA avant™ is a preparative chromatography system designed for fast and secure development of scalable methods and processes.

Complement your gene expression analysis with LOH studies. Confirm your SNP analysis results by sequencing. Combine MLPA genomic results with quantitative gene expression for the full story.
Agilent's GeneSpring GX software provides powerful, accessible statistical tools for fast visualization and analysis of transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics and metabolomics data.
