4 New Ways to Optimize your Clinical Laboratory

Get more from your clinical lab with these new innovations

Our recent Optimizing the Clinical Laboratory Editorial Alert highlighted some specific content from our clinical libraries. Each product in the alert is designed to help clinical scientists to optimize the laboratory in which they work.

Video: Greiner Bio-One Cryo.s™ Biobanking Tubes

Greiner Bio-One combines more than 30 years of experience in the manufacturing of cryogenic tubes with latest technology and innovation. Cryo.s™ Biobanking tubes are ideally suited for the storage of cell cultures, tissue samples, microbiological samples (e.g. viruses, bacteria, yeast and other fungi, spores), material of human or animal origin, such as blood, serum and sperm as well as antibodies, RNA, DNA and protein samples.

Poster: A Universal Surface Coating for Diagnostic Applications

This poster describes an alternative to traditional methods of biomolecule attachment that utilizes a metal polymer surface chemistry. Various formulations of Mix&Go particles from Anteo Technologies can modify the strength of binding, wettability and surface charge, controlling protein binding and the stability of bound biomolecules. The coating was measured using SEM, TEM, AFM and other microscopic methods. Attaching biomolecules onto solid supports is a necessary step in developing and manufacturing most in vitro diagnostics and point-of care products. However, direct immobilization of antibodies to synthetic surfaces can damage proteins and adversely impact both their structure and function.
