PrimePCR™ Assays: Meeting the MIQE Guidelines by Full Wet-Lab Validation
The MIQE guidelines have set a new standard for publishing qPCR results to ensure integrity in the scientific literature and increase experimental transparency. One of the key guidelines focuses on the proper design and experimental validation of primer assays used in qPCR. This tech report describes the design and wet-lab validation of PrimePCR assays and how they comply with the MIQE guidelines.
High Sensitivity of Bio-Plex® Multiplex System is Key in Study for Novel Melanoma Therapeutics
alt
Melanoma is an aggressive cancer where early detection is essential for patient survival. The Facchiano lab is developing new anti-proliferation molecules against melanoma and is working to identify new molecular markers at the very early stages of pathology. Here Dr Antonio Facchiano discusses the merits of using the Bio-Plex technology to measure dose-dependent changes in expression levels of growth and angiogenic factors in cell lysates and supernatants.

Droplet Digital PCR Opens New Perspectives in HIV Research
Sangamo BioSciences, Inc., located in Richmond, California, is developing HIV therapeutics toward a functional cure using their proprietary zinc finger DNA-binding protein technology. Droplet digital PCR (ddPCR™) — or third generation PCR — offers a superior solution as it can detect target sequence within a single molecule, making it a powerful technology for low copy event detection.
Image Lab™ 4.1, the Latest Software Version, Addresses the Challenges of Multiplex Analysis and Protein Normalization
The updated Image Lab image acquisition and analysis software provides improved tools for total protein normalization using the stain-free technology.
Bio-Rad’s New 4x Laemmli Sample Buffer for SDS-PAGE
Detecting dilute protein samples using standard protein gel stains can be problematic. One method of enabling increased sample capacity on gels is to increase the well size. The newly introduced 4x Laemmli sample buffer improves sample loading capacity, improving the detection of low-abundance proteins.
