William C Heiser, PhD and Ma Theresa Redila-Flores, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc . , Hercules, CA 94547 USA An accurate and rapid assessment of viable cell number and proliferation is often required for in vitro and in vivo experiments. These assessments are necessary and useful for analysi...Small-Molecule Quantitation Using Automated Single-Shot Averaging MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry
Traditionally, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry has been used very little for quantitative studies. Analysts have usually assumed that potential differences in ionization efficiency between analyte and internal standards and an inherent heterogeneity of the sample spot would limit MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry as a quantitative technique. In addition...Photoluminescence Spectroscopy of Quantum Dots, monitored by the Spex FluoroMax
The optical properties of quantum dots (QDs) have potential applications in optoelectronics, biosensing and biolabeling, memory devices, and sources of laser light. For example, alloyed CdSeTe QDs are shown herein to possess a nonlinear change in their photoluminescence spectra, correlated to size and composition, as monitor...Are photovoltaics a power supplement, full replacement or neither?
The global demand for all kinds of energy is growing. That is a statement you hear within many business reports and some people are taking a proactive approach in rearranging their power sources. This is from The $3.5 billion photovoltaic module market is projected to grow to a $27 billion to $30...Flu institute a booster shot for Wisconsin biotech stature

Wisconsin has earned another national mention as a "biotech hotspot," this time in e-mail newsletter FierceBiotech. In aggregate this kind of recognition raises the state's profile and is just what the biotech industry has been asking for. Joining Wisconsin on the list of five hotspots were California, Maryland, New Jersey and Singapore. John Carroll, the editor responsible for compiling...Midwest called next 'biotech hotbed'
The Midwest will become the nation's next "biotech hotbed," the leader of a West Coast venture capital firm said Wednesday, pointing to initiatives in Wisconsin and other states in the region.
