Quantification of the kinetic rates of protein association, dissociation, and aggregation is an essential factor in understanding and ultimately manipulating these phenomena. A variety of measurement ... read more

Thermal methods such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermomechanical analysis (TMA) are well-established techniques for characterizing polymers, thin films, and coatings.However, DSC ... read more

The use of a hydrogen peroxide vapor (H2O2) atomizer in situ to decontaminate a cell culture CO2 incubator without the use of heat sterilization offers significant advantages in routine clinical and ... read more

Precision ultrasonic microvortexing is an underexplored area in biophysics research, a pathway to automation for portable lab-on-a-chip (LOC) systems, biodetection, assays, and screening. read more

Scientific laboratories are at the heart of most breakthroughs, investigative discoveries, and product development efforts in science-related operations. read more

Plate assays (1536-well) that require washing (i.e., enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays [ELISAs] and cell-based), are not routinely implemented in high-throughput screening laboratories due to the ... read more

Chemical screening requires methods for the liquid handling of chemical compounds. read more

Prof. Anthony Hollander had always believed that he would be able to save lives. He believed it so strongly, in fact, that he wrote to a television program as a child asking for a few tools to help ... read more

Errors in automated liquid handling can have a significant impact on data integrity. Since automated liquid handling is a relatively new and rapidly advancing technology, standardized verification ... read more

Early interpretations of biological structures using film-based transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images were based on the analysis of two-dimensional TEM images, or by the painful reconstruction... read more
