Media Adaptation for Suspension Cells
The success of an experiment can rely heavily on the type of cell culture media used. Many choices are available and selecting the right media can ensure the optimal performance of your cells...
CRISPR’ing Wheat with a Gene Gun
Biolistic transfection, also known as particle bombardment, is exactly what it sounds like: microparticles coated with nucleic acids are shot into cells with devices called "gene guns. The conception of biolistic transfection is credited to Dr. John Sanford, who showed that...
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is an emerging technology that enables the fabrication of complex, biomimetic tissue constructs for applications in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and drug testing. Hydrogels, which are hydrophilic polymeric networks capable of absorbing...
