Importance of CO² Monitoring in Incubation Application

Standard incubation equipment provides technicians with the ability to grow and study cultures because they can optimize temperature and humidity conditions for cell growth and maintain proper development. The inclusion of carbon dioxide (COCO²) has only advanced the science. Find out more about the importance of C0CO² monitoring in incubation.

Developing Fluorescent Dyes for Use in Super-Resolution Microscopy

An essential tool in biological research is fluorescence imaging, which enables the visualization of proteins in live and fixed cells. Conventional techniques, such as confocal microscopy, produce image resolutions that are limited by the microscope and by the diffraction properties of light to around 200 nm.

Human Cell Models of the Developing Cortex

Research into the mechanisms of early brain development, especially that of the cortex, is important in aiding our understanding of how the brain develops so that we can also understand how neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders occur.

	Chemotherapy-induced senescent cells eat neighboring cells Researchers at the Tulane School of Medicine, New Orleans, LA, have recently published a paper revealing their findings from a study they conducted, which looked into the activity of senescent cells. Their data uncovered that senescent cells induced by chemotherapy can remain persistent through engulfing the surrounding cells.

	Newly developed cell models can open up new avenues for ocular drug discovery Researchers at the University of Eastern Finland have developed two new cell models that can open up new avenues for ocular drug discovery. The new cell models are continuously growing retinal pigment epithelial cells, which have many benefits over the models currently used by researchers and pharmaceutical companies. The models were developed by Professor Arto Urtti's Ocular Drug Delivery group at the University of Eastern Finland.

	Overview of Cell Viability and Cytotoxicity Measures of cell viability and cytotoxicity are essential for the development of new drug treatments for cancer. For a number of years, cell-based assays have been used to assess the impact of drugs on cell viability (the number of live cells), and the drug’s cytotoxicity (the toxic quality of the drug on the cells).
