Using PrimePCR™ qPCR Assays to Understand Breast Cancer Metastasis

Traci Lyons describes how PrimePCR Assays ended her laboratory’s struggle to find a qPCR assay that could reliably detect transcription of the cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) gene, which they had identified as potentially prometastatic. Using the PrimePCR Assay for Cox-2, researchers in her lab were finally able to verify cyclooxygenase-2 knockdown, which is a necessary step toward confirming its role in breast cancer metastasis.

PrecisionAb™ Antibodies: Defining New Standards for Western Blotting

Choosing the right primary antibody is an arduous task. A lot of standardization needs to happen before we can determine that the antibody is specific and sensitive enough for the purpose of our experiment. The new PrecisonAb™ Antibodies from Bio-Rad go through vigorous testing and validation before they are deemed suitable, thus eliminating the process of trial and error for researchers. The video describes how the PrecisionAb antibodies are developed.

How Does the Mixed Mode Interaction of a Media Help Achieve High Selectivity and Resolution?

The best chromatography media should yield high protein purity and product recovery as well as be versatile enough to purify difficult samples. Bio-Rad’s CHT™ Ceramic Hydroxyapatite achieves this by virtue of being able to interact with the proteins through multiple modes, making the process extremely efficient. The whiteboard animation describes the mode of action of CHT.
