Invasion of influenza A
The influenza season in Europe is over... until next year. Influenza remains one of the most important public healthcare problems, especially in risk groups.
Keep cool... corticosterone and stress
Corticosterone is a glucocorticoid secreted by the cortex of the adrenal gland in response to stimulation by adrenocorticotropic hormone. Corticosterone is a major indicator of stress in non-human mammals.
Why is the hCMEC/D3 cell line a robust in vitro BBB model?
The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) affects the development of drugs for all pathologies (brain exposure to drugs, side effects...). In the early phases of drug development, there is a strong need for stable
Next generation RIPA buffer: a new kit for Lipid Raft
RIPA buffer is one of the most useful protein extraction buffers and maintains most native structures of proteins. Nevertheless, RIPA buffer is not convenient enough to extract membrane proteins and membrane-associated
5 multicolour flow cytometry reagents for immunophenotyping
Multicolour fluorochrome reagents have spurred researchers' capacity to analyze cell populations and to isolate cell subsets by flow cytometry. In this post, let's take at look at the advantages of
2 new validated anti-PGP 9.5 antibodies for neuroscience research
Protein Gene Product 9.5 (PGP 9.5) is an abundant cytoplasmic neuron and neuroendocrine-cell specific protein. Over the years, this deubiquitinating enzyme (a.k.a. Ubiquitin Carboxy-terminal Hydrolase
New Zika virus monoclonal antibodies
Abnova offer a series of new monoclonal research antibodies to support the study of the Zika virus. These are available through tebu-bio across Europe. Let's take a look at these monoclonals,
Biomolecule conjugation - how to biotinylate with reproducible results?
Biomolecule conjugation is critical to many applications such as bead-based assays, ELISA and chromatography by affinity. Unfortunately the classical methods are known to be tedious and with low efficiency.
New: Nipah Virus G Protein and antibodies for developing specific NiV ELISA test
Nipah Virus Infection (NiV) is an emerging infectious disease of public health importance in the South-East Asia Region (source: World Health Organization). Along with Hendra virus (HeV), NiV is part
Improve MS-based biomarker determination with immunocapture
During the past decade, mass spectrometry, notably LC/MS, has become a major approach to identify and quantify proteins in patient samples. It includes analysis before treatments to find the proper biomarkers
