Automation in PCR and qPCR processes is revolutionizing laboratory workflows in regulated environments like biopharma and CROs. By enhancing efficiency, reducing manual errors, and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards, automation allows labs to scale operations and increase throughput without compromising data quality. Here we show the range of Bio-Rad products that are compatible with automated solutions for PCR and qPCR workflows.

Choosing the right chromatography resin is a complex and critical decision that can significantly impact the success of your downstream purification workflow, whether for preparative or analytical applications. To make an informed choice, you must consider the scientific principles of the process, practical implications for your specific application, and attributes of the manufacturer.

RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a fundamental technique for transcriptome profiling, facilitating the detection of gene expression changes across sample groups. Traditional RNA-Seq of complex tissues, however, is not capable of deciphering the unique biological processes that take place within each cell. As such, single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) has emerged for the analysis of RNA molecules from individual cells, uncovering detailed insights that are unobtainable through bulk RNA-Seq.

In the rapidly evolving field of cancer research, understanding the complex interplay between tumors and the immune system is essential for developing effective therapies. Bio-Plex Multiplex Immunoassays, for research use only and powered by Luminex xMAP technology, provide a cutting-edge tool for simultaneously measuring multiple immune biomarkers. Learn how these research tools are paving the way for development of personalized cancer treatments in the future.

Counting is something we are all familiar with but it’s not always as simple as one, two, three. Measuring the concentration of cells in suspension is a common but surprisingly complex task in cell biology that is easy to get wrong. This article explores ten factors that can influence cell counting, gives advice on how to improve accuracy, and dispels some commonly held myths.
