The Biolog Phenotype Microarray enables researchers to evaluate cell changes under thousands of physiological states in a simple, rapid and efficient manner.


Non-binding microplates

01 October, 2009 by

The Greiner Bio-One Non-Binding Microplates have low protein, DNA and peptide binding properties.


Microplate labelling system

30 September, 2009 by

Agilent Technologies has introduced a microplate labelling system for automated on-demand and barcode print-and-apply applications in life science laboratories.


Blood dry storage products

22 September, 2009 by

Biobanks are the intermediary between donors and research labs to ensure the safe, effective transfer of the biological information held in samples. The number of biobanks is increasing, as is the cost for power to store the samples at the appropriate refrigerated temperature. The current standard for storage is either at -20 or -70 °C. It is costly for biobanks not only to keep these samples cold, but also to house the refrigerators within their laboratories. New methods are being sought to allow storage at room temperature, thus reducing costs as well as being environmentally friendly. Qiagen has launched the QIAsafe DNA Blood Kit to provide easy transport and storage of whole blood at room temperature.


DLReady certified microplate reader

22 September, 2009 by

BioTek Instruments’ Synergy Mx Monochromator-based Microplate Reader has been DLReady certified for dual-luciferase assays. This certification establishes the Synergy Mx as meeting the performance levels and standards for Promega’s Dual-Luciferase Reporter (DLR) Assay System - a widely used luminescence-based assay for measuring gene transcription and control in microplate format.


Magnetic bead-based washer

10 August, 2009

BioTek Instruments has expanded its ELx405 Microplate Washer product line with the ELx405 Magnetic Bead Washer. Developed in conjunction with genotyping, gene expression and protein assays that are built on Luminex Corporation’s xMAP platform, the ELx405 Magnetic Bead Washer offers high-strength biomagnetic separation in both 384- and 96-well microplates.


Monochromator-based multi-mode microplate reader

10 August, 2009

The Synergy Mx Monochromator-Based Multi-Mode Microplate Reader is the newest addition to the Synergy family from BioTek.


Chromosome aberration detection

18 June, 2009

Affymetrix has launched the next-generation Affymetrix Cytogenetics Research Solution which includes arrays, reagents and analysis software for fast and reliable discovery and detection of chromosome aberrations.


Microplate photometer

09 June, 2009 by

Thermo Scientific’s Multiskan FC microplate photometer product line has new features for enhanced usability.


High-density functional protein microarray

09 June, 2009 by

The ProtoArray Human Protein Microarray Version 5.0 is claimed to be the first high-density functional protein microarray to enable screening of a protein sample or other probe of interest against more than 9000 unique human proteins in a single, rapid experiment.


Online microarray design tool

05 June, 2009 by

The eArray 5.4 online microarray design tool enables users to design custom microRNA (miRNA) microarrays.


Filtration plate

08 April, 2009 by

The Captiva NDLipids is a simple-to-use, non-drip, 96-well filtration plate designed to remove phospholipids (including lysophosphatidylcholines) from biofluids.


Microplate processor

08 April, 2009 by

The Precision XS Microplate Sample Processor combines a single-channel sample processing head, an 8-channel pipetting head and an 8-channel bulk reagent dispenser into one compact product.


Microplate dispenser

08 April, 2009 by

The EL406 Microplate Washer Dispenser offers fast and full microplate washing along with both peristaltic and microprocessor-controlled syringe drive reagent dispenser technologies. The system helps optimise liquid handling processes in microplate format, including complex wash routines.


Protein interaction analysis

07 April, 2009 by

Bio-Rad Laboratories has released a GLH sensor chip for its ProteOn XPR36 protein interaction array system. The chip generates a high analyte signal through its high ligand activity and binding capacity. The amine coupling chemistry and polymer layer of the GLH sensor chip is similar to the ProteOn GLC and GLM chips, allowing ligand binding across a wide pH range.
