Every type of cell has different membrane properties, meaning that transfection of your specific nucleic acid can become challenging.

To overcome transfection limitations, RJH Biosciences have developed a new range of transfection reagents to transfect mammalian cells with specific nucleic acids.

Access to this new technology now through tebu-bio in Europe!  

Following on from the popular SiR-Probes, earlier this year Spirochrome introduced new SPY probes, as presented in this post.

Hyaluronic acid (also called HA or Hyaluronan) is a glycosaminoglycan with elevated viscosity, enabling tissues (eye, skin, joint and synovial fluid…) to resist to physical and mechanical constraints (torsion, flexion…). Over time, when HA production declines, tissues progressively lose these tensile properties, leading to wrinkles and fold, weak re-epithelisation and age-related troubles. But HA is also involved in many other chronic and cancer-related diseases. In this post, we’ll review one of the most popular HA quantification assays (ELISA test), known to be highly sensitive and robust, appreciated by researchers involved in cosmetology and drug discovery.

Alone, or in combination with other therapies, Immuno-Oncology (I-O) appears currently as one of the most promising research fields to fight cancer. Nevertheless, developing breakthrough therapies to fully harness the immune system to fight diseased cells remain quite challenging.

To help researchers solve these hurdles, we have selected a complete offer of innovative and robust reagents and services. In this post, I wanted to highlight 6 Immuno-Oncology “must-haves” to facilitate your R&D projects.
