Single cell RNA-sequencing measures the distribution levels of each gene across of population of cells. This can be used to study the development and physiology of cells, as well as disease. Single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) allows for the gene expression patterns of individual cells be defined. As cells have different gene expression, using scRNA-seq describes […]

Chromatography Media Selection
Chromatography is a technique that is used for separation of mixtures. The name combines the Greek word chroma, or “color,” with graphein, “to write.” The technique was invented in 1900 by Mikhail Tsvet, who used it “to write the colors” of plant pigments, like chlorophyll carotenes and xanthophylls. He did this by dissolving the plant […]
Bioactive Microbial Metabolites
Microbial metabolites are chemical or carbon compounds isolated from microorganisms. ‘Bioactivity’ of Microbial Metabolites Bioactivity or biological activity of the metabolite may be in vitro, in vivo, or at the level of whole organism. The primary metabolites include polysaccharides, proteins, nucleic, and fatty acids; while the secondary metabolites are low molecular weight (MW<3000) compounds. The […]

Micro-Ultrasound in Cancer Research
Cancer angiogenesis is a key focal point in biomedical research. However, lack of a high resolution and portable imaging technique that helps in non-invasive, real-time quantification of various parameters is a huge challenge facing cancer research studies in animals. In cancer research, scientists need to visualize the tumor in real time, to study the effects […]
