New SARS-CoV/ACE2 inhibitor assays & small molecules for drug discovery
Many initiatives led by worldwide scientific networks are currently being launched to decipher cellular mechanisms involved in SARS-CoV-2 cellular entry. For example, a recent study has identified 332
COVID-19: relevant cell culture models
One of the challenges in respiratory research in general, and for COVID-19 related projects in particular, is to have access to relevant in vitro cell culture models. Human lung epithelium models are currently
3 colour Live Cell Imaging - Actin, Tubulin and DNA
Following on from the popular SiR-Probes, earlier this year Spirochrome introduced new SPY probes, as presented in this post.
Take a few minues to watch this video of the SPYâ„¢ Actin, Tubulin and DNA
Reprogramming stem cells: a new innovative technology for the development of consistent and functional human cells
To overcome current cell model limitations, bit.bio have developed a new, innovative technology to reprogram human stem cells with precise control of transcription factor expression through iPSC engineering.
Consistent, scalable human iPSC-derived glutamatergic neurons and skeletal myocytes
As detailed in a separate post, bit.bio have developed a novel cellular reprogramming technology, opti-ox™1 (optimized inducible overexpression), that can generate functional cells with high consistency
New Flipper-TR probes - easily measure membrane tension in cells
Despite its importance in the regulation of many cellular processes, membrane tension is still complicated to measure. And despite valuable insights, the techniques currently available remain complex and
New cutting-edge SPY labelling probes
With the great success of the SIR-probes for efficient labeling of the cell Cytoskeleton, DNA and Lysosome, Spirochrome have just launched a series of 10 new live cell fluorescent tools : The SPYTM probes
ADCC and SARS-CoV-2 - how is their destiny linked?
Since its emergence in 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has rapidly spread to become the major health issue of the past two years. But it's also a research field of interest
Hepatocyte Pellets - why should you make the switch?
You may have heard about the patented CryostaX® format of hepatocyte pellets, but do you know why SEKISUI XenoTech and countless other researchers have made the switch from traditional hepatocyte
3 solutions for optimal cryopreservation of mammalian cells and tissues
Cell viability after cryopreservation is a sensitive subject as it may be dependent on the ability of mammalian cells to face the stress generated by the freeze / thaw cycles. Improving cell viability
Immunotherapy for breast cancer: Types and effectiveness
Our body is made up of trillions of cells grouped together to form tissues and organs. The genes present in the nucleus of every cell tell it when to grow, work, divide and die.
Normally, our cells follow
