| |  Solventless sample preparation methods have been applied to a variety of sample types
The move toward greener chemistry extends to sample preparation, because reducing or eliminating solvents can make preparation more environmentally friendly. Going solvent-free also “reduces background contamination from other materials, including glassware used in sample prep,” says Gary Stidsen, sample handling business manager at Restek (Bellefonte, PA).

|  Without performance measures it can feel like you are constantly racing against time and funding to produce results
It’s easy to get caught up in a rat race when conducting scientific research. Basic research, often carried out in an academic-type setting tends to be hypothesis-driven or exploratory in nature rather than product-driven as in industry. Read More |

|  Flow cytometry has been instrumental in the discovery of rare cells and in understanding how they differ from more abundant cells
Rare cells, which exist alone or within a mixture of cells in relatively low numbers, are often indicative of health status. Cells present where they normally don’t exist, such as endothelial cells in circulating blood, suggesting serious pathology. Read More |
| |  Researchers invent new nanoparticle-based delivery system
More and more scientists are using the powerful new gene-editing tool known as CRISPR/Cas9, a technology isolated from bacteria, that holds promise for new treatment of such genetic diseases as cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, and hemophilia. Read More |
White Papers and Application Notes |  Forensic investigations commonly involve the collection of textile fibers when examining crime scenes. The need to characterize and identify those fibers is vital as they can provide extensive information relating to a crime, tying a suspect to a location.
FT-IR presents a nondestructive method to identify those fibers. FT-IR can be coupled with microscopy, presenting the ability to provide a forensic examiner with both detailed visual microscopic information and simultaneous material identification. Download the FREE application note to learn more |
| | Advanced molecular technologies are the future of forensic sciences  A wide variety of techniques are available using DNA to definitively link a suspect to either a crime scene or a victim, elevating the use of genetic techniques from a niche science to standard practice for criminal investigations and court proceedings. These tools may be used to identify potential suspects, to identify victims of crime or disaster, to determine familial relationships, or to exonerate persons wrongly accused of crimes.

|  The distribution of chemical substances on samples with non-flat surfaces can now be visualized
The chemical analysis of biological tissues with three-dimensional shapes has been a major problem so far. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology in Jena, Germany, have now improved mass spectrometry imaging in such a way that the distribution of molecules can also be visualized on rippled, hairy, bulgy, or coarse surfaces.

| |  Those applying pesticides and producing foods that have been treated with pesticides must follow specific rules
People started applying pesticides to protect foods long ago. “Pesticides have been used since the Sumerians, 2,500 years ago,” says Phil Taylor, global marketing manager for food, environmental, and forensics at SCIEX (Framingham, MA). “We’ve been relying on pesticides since then to preserve crops and food.” Read More |
On Demand Webinar - Available Now |  Solid phase microextraction (SPME) has become one of the most rapidly growing sample preparation methods. A recent expansion of this technique, known as biocompatible SPME (BioSPME), has allowed this sample preparation methodology to evolve into a useful tool for clinical applications.
In this webinar, you will learn more about: - The basic theory and method development of BioSPME
- How BioSPME devices can be used to directly sample from complex biological matrices
- Methods to greatly reduce your sample processing and analysis times
