The influenza season in Europe is over... until next year. Influenza remains one of the most important public healthcare problems, especially in risk groups.

In a previous post on whether samples should be pooled or not for proteomic profiling, we discussed this approach, which can be quite cost-wise, while still allowing to see the main biomarkers

For years, we already

Lipodystrophies are disorders characterized by complete or selective loss of adipose tissue from various regions of the body. They might lead to severe metabolic disorders. The development of reliable

Genome editing technology enabled by CRISPR and TALEN has become mainstream. Most cell biology labs are engaged in projects to create custom cell lines with knock-outs and knock-ins, and companies such

Recently I reported about methods to measure:

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

Many labs have adopted the CRISPR genome editing technology to make knock-out and knock-in cell lines.

This technology produces first a targeted break in genomic DNA, which can then be exploited

Biomarkers specialists are often asked to select an ELISA kit for researchers: with thousands of ELISA references available on the market, the choice can be tricky regarding proteins for which several

Nucleosomes are basis units of DNA packaging in eukaryotic cells. A core particle (mono-nucleosome) consists of a segment of DNA called core DNA (147

Interferons (IFNs) are low molecular weight proteins that belong to the class of glycoproteins known as cytokines. IFNs are part of the non-specific immune system and are an important first line of defense

In previous posts, we have discussed about whether samples should be pooled, how much (and if) they should be diluted, and how biologicals can affect the
