Cool and heat samples in a bath without the use of ice or water. tecaLAB offers Peltier-driven Electric Ice Buckets with temperature control. Aluminum Thermal Lab Beads replace ice or water. Versatile PWM temperature controller features USB communications, data logging software, and more.

At the flip of a switch, neuroscientists can send a sleeping mouse into dreamland. The researchers inserted an optogenetic switch into a group of nerve cells located in the ancient part of the brain called the medulla, allowing them to activate or inactivate the neurons with laser light.

The DrySyn Vortex family from Asynt has been expanded to now comprise three systems, all designed to stir or blend up to three reactions at one time, whilst heating or cooling.

This whitepaper examines the influence of different pore sizes on some common microorganisms. It provides data on the effect of pore size on growth and recovery. The study compares a variety of microorganism/media combinations on a range of pore sizes. The filtration method used in the study was a standard glass funnel and base with vacuum.

Biomedical scientists have now discovered a mechanism by which secreted proteins age and turn over at the end of their life spans. Their findings, which shed light on a crucial aspect of health and disease, appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Sterility testing of final drug products is a mandatory release test. Traditional methods such as membrane filtration require a minimum incubation time of 14 days. This extended time to result delays product release and increases storage costs. Download this white paper and learn how to achieve results in just 5 days!

An international team of researchers has identified a new molecule involved in skin fibrosis, a life-threatening disease characterized by the inflammation and hardening of skin tissue. The new study is the first to investigate the role of this molecule in skin fibrosis and paves the way toward new and improved therapies for the disease.

Most patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has metastasized to the brain have a dire prognosis. But researchers have identified a subset of those patients with a rare genetic mutation who are living significantly longer than patients without the mutation.

The burgeoning field of optogenetics makes it possible for scientists to control brain activity using pulses of light. Now, researchers have developed an optoelectronic device which opens the possibility of bidirectional communication with the brain — stimulating neural microcircuits while while monitoring changes in neural activity.
