• "Green Chemstry" in the Laboratory
  

  The term "green chemistry" is commonly used to describe chemical procedures which meet specific requirements with regards to the conservation of resources and protection of the environment. The objective is to avoid undesired by-products by selecting adequate reaction procedures and media. A typical example is the production of bio fuel which has become an ecologically friendly alternative for many drivers. more

• Metagenomics Analysis Using the Genome Sequencer FLX System
  

  The Genome Sequencer FLX System from 454 Life Sciences and Roche Applied Science is a versatile sequencing platform suitable for a wide range of applications, including de novo sequencing and assembly of genomic DNA, transcriptome sequencing, small RNA analysis, and amplicon sequencing. The Genome Sequencer FLX is built upon 454 Sequencing technology that enables long read lengths and very high single-read accuracy. One application in which the technology is accelerating the field's understanding is metagenomics. more

• Superiority of FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent in Minimizing Non-Specific Cellular Interferon Responses
  

  Many viruses, including human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), encode for genes that can modulate or interfere with the ability of cells to mount an effective antiviral response to infection. Transfection of viral genes into cultures of mammalian cells is an important research tool to evaluate the function of viral gene products. We utilized this approach to identify viral genes involved in modulation of interferon (IFN)-mediated cell signaling pathways. more
