RT-qPCR is a well-established method for the detection, quantification, and typing of different microbial agents. However, when dealing with the challenges of pathogen detection, not all RT-qPCR reagents are created equal. See how we used a novel one-step multiplex RT-qPCR supermix to demonstrate sensitive codetection of viral RNA and DNA targets in a multiplex setting.

qPCR has become ubiquitous for nucleic acid detection and quantification and remains the gold standard for a wide array of applications. To help you publish high-quality, reproducible data that reflect true experimental conditions, we’ve developed this comprehensive guide to performing the ultimate qPCR experiment.

Using RT-qPCR for RNA, though critical in several industries, is often met with challenges. Many current options don’t allow for multiplexing or high-throughput operation. Bio-Rad’s new Reliance One-Step Multiplex Supermix was designed to grant researchers the expanded, efficient capabilities they need in RT-qPCR. This article presents some of the performance data from the new supermix and describes how exceptional it is at multiplex detection.

When it comes to downstream protein purifications, does it feel like you’re in a constant tug of war between high yield and high purity? With Bio-Rad’s Nuvia aPrime 4A Resin, you don’t have to choose. With both ion exchange and mixed-mode properties, see how the resin is able to deliver simultaneous purity and yield, for even difficult-to-purify proteins.

Biologics are transforming the healthcare landscape and bringing us closer to the realization of personalized solutions to our health problems. Learn about what biologics are and how protein purification plays a key role in their overall success as a therapeutic.
