Numerous disease-relevant drug targets are integral membrane or membrane-associated proteins. Cellular membranes provide a critical context for topology and assembly of complex signaling networks a context that is essential for biologically relevant activity and pharmacology. BlueSky's validated protein reagents are formulated in a patented composition using TDA 2.0 which directs the assembly of functional complexes on a homogenous, soluble, nanometer-scale template, providing superior context and faithful biology.

Pall now offers micro-scale fermentation and cell culture systems developed by MicroReactor Technologies. The Micro-24 can run up to 24 simultaneous experiments at 3 to 7 ml working volumes with independent control of gas supply, temperature and pH for each system. The systems are designed for easy setup and operation with presterilized, single-use reactor cassettes; and provide continuous monitoring, logging, and control of each reactors DO, temperature and pH. In mammalian cell culture (e.g. CHO, NS0), control of pH and temperature offers a superior scale-down model to that of T-flasks or micro-titer plates. MicroReactor software allows the Micro-24 to be programmed and monitored using a standard laptop or PC computer. |

Responding to a growing need for compliant and cost-effective solutions for shipping temperature-sensitive biological samples and materials, BioStorage Technologies announced the launch of its new mobile biorepository OSIRIS (Overland Sample Inventory Relocation and Intelligent Shipping). Equipped with sophisticated ultra-low freezer and refrigeration systems, the 52-foot, multi-temperature trailer is capable of transporting a multitude of cargo, including biomaterials such as plasma, blood and tissue samples. OSIRIS also has the capability of storing and transporting valuable active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and manufactured drug products.

Techno-Blast Content |
We feature articles, presentations, assays, techniques, protocols, blog chats, reviewer comments, product tutorials, virtual tours, application data, and pretty much any other form of online material that's needed to develop and produce safe and effective products.
Technologies include essentially all the unit operations and support functions involved in bioprocessing, such as cell engineering and banking, cell culture scale-up, filtration, purification, media development, assay development, regulatory affairs, and facility design.
We hope you enjoy visiting our site and find the content both valuable and timely. Forward your comments to the boss. |
