Closer Look At Cell Membrane Shows Cholesterol 'Keeping Order'
Cell membranes form the “skin” of most every cell in your body, but the ability to view them up close and in motion cannot be rendered by many experimental techniques. A team of scientists working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and University of California, Irvine, recently developed a way to magnify them dramatically.

CD69 Expression On Activated Lymphocytes Is Stable In Streck's Cyto-Chex® BCT
The purpose of this study was to determine if the activation marker, CD69, is preserved and stable in whole blood samples collected in Cyto-Chex® BCT. Previous studies have demonstrated CD marker stability of whole blood samples collected in Cyto-Chex BCT for up to 7 days when stored at room temperature (18-22°C). By Jodi Alt, Ph.D
