Researchers at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, are developing an alternative to nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) to purify recombinant proteins. Because it uses common ...

Most researchers know they need a pure protein. Few talk about how genuinely difficult it is to get one. A cell lysate contains thousands of proteins competing for the same space. Your target is in ...

Creating analytical tools that support the advancement of knowledge can often come about through the integration of existing information and techniques, theoretical and practical, directed toward a ...

The world's first continuous purification method for valuable drugs has been created by scientists. This will lead to significantly reduced production costs and to cheaper pharmaceuticals that are ...

Protein purification is both an art and a science, requiring the right combination of techniques, equipment, and molecular insights. From hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) to reversed phase ...

Proteins play a key role in the life sciences - from basic research and biotechnological applications to the development and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. Scientists at the Technical University of ...

The antibodies used in diagnostic techniques are often generated in vivo, when an animal is injected with a specific antigen from another species. The animal's immune system responds by producing ...

A new purification process that, if successful, could help millions of people without access to clean water quickly and efficiently purify water to make it safe for drinking and cooking is being ...

As the global population grows, fresh water supplies are more precious than ever. While scientists and engineers know how to purify water, making those methods sustainable and energy efficient is ...
