UCSD medical/bioengineering reseachers show titanium debris satobtage artificial joints

Microscopic titanium particles weaken the bonding of hip, knee, and other joint replacements, according to research published online in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine and the Jacobs School of Engineering. The team demonstrated that titanium implants are safe in large blocks, but at the microscopic...

DNA constraints control structure of attached macromolecules

A new method for manipulating macromolecules has been developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The technique uses double-stranded DNA to direct the behavior of other molecules.

Hydrogen Peroxide / Peroxidase Fluorometric (resorufin) Assay Kit, Fluoro H2O2 from BACHEM

Description:This quick (10 min) assay can detect H2O2 or peroxidase activity utilizing a non-fluorescent substrate, 10-acetyl-3,7-dihydroxyphenoxazine (ADHP). H2O2 oxidizes ADHP in a 1:1 stoichiometry to produce a fluorescent product resorufin (excitation at 530-571 nm, emission at 590-600 nm). This reaction is catalyzed by peroxidase in a one-step, homogeneous, no wash assay system. ADHP can be utilized to...
