The hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis (HPT axis) is conserved across vertebrate evolution. Perturbation of thyroid hormone homeostasis (THH) can lead to adverse effects in thyroid function affecting growth, metabolism and cognitive function.

Insights and Expanding Practical Education in a Core Facility With Brightfield Imaging-Enabled Flow Cytometry

The growing use of RNA-based vaccines and therapies has focused much attention and effort on developing conditions for maximizing the yield and efficiency of the in vitro transcription (IVT) reactions used to produce mRNA. IVT procedures involve the biosynthesis of RNA from a linear DNA template containing an appropriate transcription promoter. But how do different buffer conditions and nucleotide concentrations impact the IVT reaction?

2D cultures often fall short in drug screening when it comes to clinical predictivity, but 3D models and high content services allow accurate and clinically relevant screens.

Membrane proteins are a notoriously difficult class of proteins to express, purify and characterize. Expression levels of membrane proteins in mammalian expression systems, the preferred system to generate native-like post-translational modifications, are often so low that yields are unsuitable for the intended downstream uses.

Researchers are always developing innovative applications for novel research areas, improving data quality and expanding the boundaries of experimental limitations.

Nucleic acid amplification and detection techniques are highly valuable tools that can be used across a wide range of applications... Real-time PCR, also known as quantitative PCR (qPCR), is the gold-standard for sensitive, specific detection and quantification of nucleic acid targets.

C18 columns have a broad applicability, from pharmaceuticals to food and environmental analyses. However versatile C18 columns are, they aren't the optimal stationary phase for every application.

Most techniques utilize a filter to hold the ground coffee during the brewing process. Coffee filters can reduce some of the acidity and oils from the coffee, but if they are not rinsed, negative aromas can be extracted during the brewing process. This can lead to a cup of coffee with paper, plastic and other off-odor aromas.

The QuEChERS method is the industry standard for pesticide clean-up and extraction of a wide variety of food samples. QuEChERS kits are easy to use and enable fast sample preparation resulting in excellent pesticide recoveries.
