Chiral column chromatography makes use of the concept of chirality. Chirality relates to study of the three-dimensional structure of molecules. The term comes from the Greek root chir-, hand, and means “handedness.” Chiral molecules show a left- and right-handed nature. They exist as mirror image forms that cannot be made to overlap byrotation. Molecules showing […]

Flow Cytometry in Immunology
Flow cytometry is a technique used by biologists to observe populations of cells with high precision and accuracy. Kateryna Kon | Shutterstock Flow cytometry works by illuminating cells, or other types of particle, as they flow in front of a light source, such as a single or dual laser beam. The light source then detects […]
iDISCO Applications
What is iDISCO? iDISCO is a method developed by Renier and co., whereby immunolabelling is combined with a method which effectively makes biological tissues transparent (3DISCO). This means that you are not only able to label tissue, but also you are able to see labels within a 3D block of tissue. Complex structures, such as […]

What is Multiomics?
Multiomics is a new approach where the data sets of different omic groups are combined during analysis. The different omic strategies employed during multiomics are genome, proteome, transcriptome, epigenome, and microbiome. Genomics Genomics is a field which involves identification of genes and genetic variants associated with a disease or in response to certain drugs and […]
What is Organ-on-a-Chip (OOC)?
Organ-on-a-chip technology combines engineered three-dimensional tissue within a microfluidic system to simulate the mechanics and physiology of entire organs. XOHDY | Shutterstock Organ-on-a-chip devices can overcome the limitations of conventional two-dimensional cell culture methodologies, allowing for the establishment of models that mimic the three-dimensional arrangement of different cell types closer to the physiological condition.
