The transparent organism: EMBLEM and Carl Zeiss give labs a unique look at life
A novel high-tech microscope will be brought to the marketplace, giving laboratories everywhere fascinating new insights into living organisms. EMBLEM Technology Transfer GmbH (EMBLEM), the commercial entity of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), announced today that it has signed a licensing deal with technological leader Carl Zeiss to commercialize a new technology called SPIM (Se...New Mixing Method for Microchip-Sized Labs
"Because up to 75 percent of breast cancerpatients have an abnormality in a specific cell signaling pathway,drugs that target different molecules along that pathway may beespecially effective for treating the disease, says a researcher fromThe University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center." A clearer picture is now emergingabout the importance of the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase...Custom Antibody Production Services from Aves Labs, Inc.
Description:After we receive your antigen (see How to Prepare your Antigen), we segregate the appropriate number of chickens and begin to collect pre-immune eggs. After 3 such eggs are collected (usually over a period of 3-5 days), we begin the injection series. This involves a total of four injections into the breast muscle. The first is in Complete Freun...Ph.D. Peptide Display Cloning System from New England Biolabs
Description:The Ph.D. Peptide Display Cloning System facilitates the display of custom peptide libraries on the surface of bacteriophage M13 as coat protein fusions, creating a physical linkage between each displayed peptide and its encoding DNA sequence. Peptide ligands for a variety of targets can then be selected by the straightforward method of biopanning. The supplied display vector M13KE is an M13 deri...LabShare 3.0 for Vector NTI Data Management Software from Invitrogen
Description:LabShare for Vector NTI allows you to store and manage very large amounts of molecular biology data in a secure central relational database. Storing and managing data in this way creates an invaluable resource for clone tracking and enables you to locate your data easily for immediate analysis. LabShare software integrates seamlessly with Invitrogen's desktop sequence analysis applications Vector...IMPACT-CN System from New England Biolabs
Description:IMPACT (Intein Mediated Purification with an Affinity Chitin-binding Tag) utilizes the inducible self-cleavage activity of engineered protein splicing elements (termed inteins) to purify recombinant proteins by a single affinity column (1-4) (Figures 1 and 2). This system distinguishes itself from other protein fusion systems by its ability to separate a recombinant protein from the affinity tag...T4 DNA Polymerase from New England Biolabs

Northfield Laboratories, founded in 1985, is a leading developer of an oxygen-carrying blood substitute. Its product, PolyHeme, is the only blood substitute undergoing clinical trials that has been tested at large enough dosages to be considered a substitute for acute blood loss in trauma and surgical settings. As a result of the process used to manufacture the blood substitute, essential...Ranbaxy Labs' Entry Into Anti-Acne Market
Ranbaxy Laboratories' entry into the global anti-acne market is likely to be delayed as the mandatory inspection by the US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) for the company's ANDA (Abbreviated New Drug Application) for the generic isotretinoin has been postponed. The US FDAs investigator had not yet arrived. The US FDA has already approved its manufacturing facility for the produc...Stem cells Can Generate Organs In Labs
WASHINGTON. In a breakthrough research scientists have for the first time been able to turn the embryonic stem cells in the lab into a type of cell that can give rise to organs such as pancreas, liver and lungs. // This important advancement will help scientists to use stem cells to repair diseased or damaged organs. The embryonic stem cells is almost like a magic cell that can give...Novel Rules And Regulations For Cardiovascular Catheterization Labs.
A novel set of regulations was established by The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI). They were basically for the welfare of the patients// who underwent cardiovascular implantations and other invasive procedures, doctors and other staff members. All the cardiological procedures have become more complex and needs extra care in the sterilization unit. <br...Labs around the World to Join Hands to Detect Bird Flu
Researchers have asked the World Health Organization to investigate the possibility of building the labs across the world to detect outbreaks of bird flu//. They are already ready to invest $1.9bn from various developed countries where the investigation with bird flu virus is already being done.
