Chromosome-specific paint system
06 August, 2007 | BioScientific Pty Ltd
Star*FISH and Chromotrax paint systems are highly chromosome specific and provide good, even coverage of the chromosome, unlike paints based on cloned libraries. This is because they are prepared from DOP-PCR*-amplified DNA obtained from flow-sorted chromosomes.
Hotplate stirrers

MultiSite Gateway Pro Technology enables users to efficiently and conveniently assemble multiple DNA fragments in the desired order and orientation into a Gateway Expression vector.
Vial filling system for clinical trials
06 August, 2007 | Nupac Industries Pty Ltd
Bosch Pharmaceutical has augmented its portfolio of vial filling solutions with the FLT1020, a system designed for increased efficiency in clinical trials. The filler is a downsized alternative to larger vial filling systems, specifically designed for the clinical/trials phase. Based on production technology, the FLT1020 minimises packaging and processing variables when shifting into the full scale production stage. Pharmaceutical firms moving from clinical trials to the production phase need to be able to predict how a drug will handle on the filling line and the FLT1020 addresses the demands of pharmaceutical manufacturers that require a scaled down unit that replicates the conditions of mass production. A smaller system enables firms to anticipate potential variables, streamline validation procedures and thus minimise the risks associated with scale up.

Transfection reagent
06 August, 2007 | Life Technologies
Lipofectamine LTX Reagent offers a solution for gene expression as it is a plasmid DNA-specific transfection reagent that can provide the same level of reproducible and efficient gene expression in a wide range of cell lines, including primary and disease-related cells. Lipofectamine LTX Reagent is synthesised from 100% animal origin-free components, making it easy to validate the absence of zoonotic diseases, such as BSE or viruses, in experiments or cell lines. A certificate of origin may be obtained.
Oligonucleotide separations technology
06 August, 2007 | Waters Australia Pty Ltd
Waters has introduced two sets of columns for the purification and analysis of oligonucleotides. The Acquity UPLC OST C18 columns have been specifically designed to work with the Waters family of Acquity UltraPerformance LC products. The XBridge OST C18 columns are designed for advanced oligonucleotide HPLC separations. Both products are suitable for purifying and analysing synthetic oligonucleotides including siRNA, primers and probes, therapeutic drugs made by oligonucleotide manufacturers, diagnostic kit makers, government and university laboratories, and biotechnology companies.
Improved mesenchymal stem cell culture
06 July, 2007 | Life Technologies
The new MesenPRO RS Medium is a reduced serum (2%) medium specifically formulated to support the growth of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in culture. MesenPRO RS Medium consistently improves MSC expansion compared with conventional serum-supplemented media. Using MesenPRO RS Medium, MSCs can be expanded for multiple passages while maintaining their multi-potential phenotype (ie, differentiation into osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages).
FK1 and FK2 Horseradish Peroxidase Conjugates
06 July, 2007 | United Bioresearch Products Pty Ltd
In order to investigate the status and extent of protein ubiquitinylation, it is necessary to have available a range of antibodies capable of differentiating firstly between free ubiquitin and ubiquitin-protein conjugates and, secondly, between those that are monoubiquitinylated and those that are polyubiquitinylated.
