AdenoONE(TM) makes working with adenovirus a standard procedure 0

Adenovirus vector cloning and production still remain tricky with rather low yields and limited success. The brand new AdenoONE(TM) line of support kits turns cloning & production into an easy to schedule project step of less than 4 weeks. AdenoONE(TM) comprises 2 discrete kits: AdenONE(TM) Cloning Kit and AdenoONE(TM) Purification Kit. The latter allows for reliable purification within just 20 minutes. Soon will SIRION BIOTECH, also referred to as Munich-s "Cell Competence Center&quot

Roche-s xCELLigence System Monitors Beating Periodicity of Stem Cell Derived Cardiomyocytes in Preclinical Safety Assessment 0

Cardiac toxicity is a major concern in drug development and it is imperative that clinical candidates are thoroughly tested for adverse effects earlier in the drug discovery process. In a new research study (1), Abassi et al. investigated the use of Roche-s (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY) xCELLigence Cardio Instrument in conjunction with embryonic stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (ESCC) for assessment of compound risk in the drug discovery process. The xCELLigence Cardio Instrument is an impedance

CoSynth hosts System Level Synthesis Tutorial at FDL 2011 0

At this year?s Forum for Design Languages (FDL), CoSynth will host a three hour tutorial about system level synthesis. This new hardware design paradigm, also known as Electronic System Level design, is currently emerging. It significantly facilitates the design process by lifting the existing manually driven HDL based process to a design flow based on advanced programming languages. This helps to manage the rising design complexity and improve re-use and modularization of system components. St
