Ultraviolet Disinfection: Crucial Link In The Sterilization Chain
By Alex Verayo, Terra Universal
Many manufacturers face the challenge of maintaining sterile products and processes. In most cases, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Highly effective sterilization technologies, like ethylene oxide gas or hydrogen peroxide vapor, carry substantial risk and often come at a high cost.

The Utility Of Mesoporous Silica Materials For The Delivery Of Poorly Water Soluble Drugs
By Michiel Van Speybroeck Ph.D., R&D Director, Formac Pharmaceuticals
It is estimated that around 70% to 90% of new chemical entities in discovery pipelines, and 40% of drugs on the market, are poorly soluble in water. Poor aqueous solubility may drastically limit oral bioavailability and ultimately compromise therapeutic outcome. It is becoming increasingly apparent that the adsorption of poorly water soluble drugs on mesoporous silica materials is a very effective way to address this solubility problem.

Analyzing Biological Drug Effect In 3D With Fluorescence Intensity Cell Reading
Cell viability assays are commonly used in cell biology and drug discovery to characterize cell responses to endogenous and exogenous factors or substances, such as cytotoxic drugs and environmental changes. Generally, cell viability is assessed using vital dyes, from which viability can be concluded either directly or indirectly.

Comparing The Automated Pipetting To Volumetric Glassware And Air Displacement Pipettes
Traditional air displacement pipettes are prone to fluctuations in accuracy resulting from user to user variation, sample vapor pressure, viscosity, and atmospheric pressure. Using a positive displacement automated pipetting device can reduce sample preparation time, reduce waste, and improve consistency of results.
