Collagen is a structural protein expressed in mammalian tissues (ex. skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilages, blood vessels...).  Together with Elastin and Keratin, Collagen fibres give connective

Measuring soluble collagen in biological samples is a straightforward experiment which can be done with the Sircol soluble collagen assay using Sirius Red dye (Sircol dye) in a convenient manner (we explored

Cytoskeletal live cell imaging is extremely powerful when investigating cellular processes such as cytokinesis, motility and organelle transport and organization. The current experimental procedures

SiR-actin and SiR-tubulin kits now contain Verapamil

Recently, we were pleased to launch highly

Glycosaminoglycans (or mucopolysaccharides) are long un-branched polysaccherides which consist of disaccharide repeats. The repeats usually (with the exception of Keratan sulfate) consist of on amino sugar

Actin and Tubulin, as the major cytoskeleton structures, are crucial components of a plethora of

Recently I reported about methods to measure:

• Collagen - Sircol for soluble and insoluble collagen assays
• Glycosaminoglycans - How to measure Glycosaminoglycans and Proteoglycans?

Today, I invite you to

For one year now,  SiR-Actin and SiR-Tubulin, the second generation of tools to stain actin and tubulin in living cells, have been available on the market - and although it may sound like an overstatement,

In their most recent publication "SiR-Hoechst,

Matrix components are key R&D elements in pharmaceutical and cosmetology with tremendous impacts on tissue regeneration, skin repair, wound healing, allergy

Visualizing fixed cells and tissues only gives snap shots of cellular processes. Over the past years, more and more cellular parameters

Hyaluronic acid (Hyaluronan) belongs to the group of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), but unlike other GAGs like Heparan sulfate, Chondroitin sulfate or Keratan sulfate, it cannot be
