Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) can help scientists determine the three-dimensional structure of proteins in unprecedented ...

The Knowledge Foundation’s “Sample Prep Symposium” held recently in Baltimore focused on the mundane but critical aspects of sample preparation including collection, concentration, lysis, target ...

A tissue sample has to be prepared prior to the analysis of its cellular and molecular components. This preparation step, known as “sample prep” reduces the complexity of the sample and enables ...

Although next-generation sequencing (NGS) keeps giving—exploring the human genome and revolutionizing our knowledge of health and disease—it needs to take a little, too. At the very least, NGS ...

The author examines sample-preparations methods used in inductively coupled plasma–optimal emission spectroscopy for four test metals. When analyzing for trace metals using inductively coupled plasma ...

High-quality sample preparation underpins every molecular workflow, determining whether downstream analyses accurately reflect biological reality. Laboratories now demand workflows that go beyond ...

The images produced with a cryo-electron microscope can only be as good as the sample that goes into it. That's why Jiro Usukura, at the Structural Biology Research Center, Nagoya University, says ...

Mass spectrometry has become a cornerstone technology for studying protein expression, interactions, and post-translational modifications (PTMs) across biological systems. Advances in instrumentation ...

To produce high-quality cement, the mineralogical and chemical composition of raw materials, as well as of intermediate and finished products, needs to be determined. At each stage of the production ...

Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) is a form of size exclusion chromatography which can be used to 'clean' complex mixtures of large, interfering molecules from samples further used for analytical ...

The PrepEngine Mini Sample Prep Station from Distek is suited for assay, impurity, and content uniformity applications. The PrepEngine Mini Sample Prep Station from Distek is suited for assay, ...
