New Hope For Understanding Autism Spectrum Disorders
Researchers from McGill University and the University of Montreal have identified a crucial link between protein synthesis and autism spectrum disorders (ASD), which can bolster new therapeutic avenues. Regulation of protein synthesis, also termed mRNA translation, is the process by which cells manufacture proteins.

Biomanufacturing Flexibility
This white paper from BIO-G looks at how to create flexible, agile manufacturing facilities to respond to the current glut of biomanufacturing capacity and industry consolidation. Future proofing these facilities for higher titers and multiple product lines is also explored.
-
Single-Use Connections Advance Aseptic Processing
John Boehm discusses how single-use connections advance aseptic processing and create increased process flexibility and reliability while reducing costs.
-
Examining Column Reproducibility During Method Development In Clinical Labs
In this study demonstrates how the HSS T3 stationary phase is a reliable stationary phase, as three batches made over a five-year span provide comparable results.
-
Guidelines For Proper Filtration And Delivery Of Samples To On-Line Process Analyzers
Increasingly precise process control strategies, often linked to computer control, have accelerated the use of sophisticated on-line chemical composition analyzers in plant applications. Instruments such as gas and liquid chromatographs, ion chromatographs, laser optic instruments, atomic absorption instruments and specific ion analyzers, which were rarities in laboratories ten years ago, are now found routinely in plant settings.
