It is widely accepted that data obtained from primary cells is not only desired, but, most relevant when trying to study physiological interactions. Experimentation in primary cells allows a deeper and

In a previous post I discussed 3 new unique research tools

Protein phosphorylation analysis is  more and more used for cell signaling studies. This post-translational modification regulates the function of numerous proteins in both physiological and disease-related

Successful culture of primary cells requires obtaining a maximum yield of functionally viable single cells from whole tissues. The primary factors that affect successful dissociation of whole tissue have

Neurotrophins are important biomarkers in Neurobiology, including stem cell development to neural lineages. BDNF and NGF are the ones being studied in most cases. However, it has been found that neurotrophins

ELISAs are widely used in biomarker-related studies, especially when a high number of samples is involved, and only a few biomarkers need to be quantified. That said, incubations can be somehow cumbersome,

Tissue culture for Primary cell isolation are often jeopardized by the outgrowth of contaminating fibroblasts. As fibroblasts usually grow at a much faster rate compared to the target

According to the WHO (World Health Organization), early diagnosis of diseases is one of the key factors in the world to save lives and reduce the cost of treatment. Faced with these recommendations, in
