Read More On Demand Webinar - Available Now Gas Generators: The Safer Approach to Your Gas Supply This webinar discusses the benefits of onsite gas generation, compares cylinder and gas generator usage, and demonstrates the advantages of switching to hydrogen carrier gas owing to declining helium supply. As an attendee, you will learn more about: How onsite generation enhances safety Quality compliance with onsite generators How larger capacity generators can solve helium supply issues Click here to register for this FREE webinar Feature Article Novel Amyloid Structure Could Lead to New Types of Antibiotics Research could advance the discovery of antibiotics with a novel mechanism of action that will attack key bacterial toxins The highly pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus bacteria is one of the five most common causes of hospital-acquired infections. In the US alone, approximately 500,000 patients at hospitals contract a staph infection. It is the bacteria responsible for MRSA, for which there is no vaccine. Read More Management Tips High Standards Thanks to stricter government regulations, accreditation and training remain as important as ever Jason Poore, client development coordinator at the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation, says that while accreditation generally doesn’t change very often, as tests and measurements are scrutinized more often the need for accreditation becomes more pronounced.

Costs of these errors can run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. In this resource you`ll learn more about: Establishing a regular employee technique validation program Partnering with service providers Balancing equipment quality and cost of ownership Download the FREE white paper to learn more Feature Article FDA Study Offers Food Establishments Better Methods for Preventing Norovirus Outbreaks The virus, one of the most contagious according to experts, affects millions of people in the U.S. each year According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, most foodborne norovirus outbreaks occur in restaurants. Food employees infected with the virus can pass it on to customers, typically after using the restroom and transferring the virus to their hands, then touching food, money, or other contact surfaces. Read More Feature Article How Brown Rot Fungi Could Lead to More Efficient Biofuels Production Understanding how brown rot fungi degrade wood could lead to new tools for more efficient biofuel production Wood’s complex structure makes it highly resistant to biological or chemical decomposition. The structure includes cellulose, long chains of linked sugar molecules, embedded in a scaffolding of a chemical known as lignin. Brown rot fungi, however, possess a unique ability to attack the cellulose fraction of wood while avoiding the surrounding lignin.
