Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) can help scientists determine the three-dimensional structure of proteins in unprecedented detail. Jacques Dubochet, former group leader at EMBL, shared the 2017 ...

PFAS monitoring is becoming one of the most demanding areas of drinking water analysis.The issue is not simply that ...

The main critical step in single-cell transcriptomics is sample preparation. Several methods have been developed to preserve cells after dissociation to uncouple sample handling from library ...

The proteins that make up our cells hold within an entire world of information, which, when unlocked, can give us insights into the origins of many essential biological phenomena. This information is ...

However, sample preparation is the most critical and time-consuming step in the analysis process, taking up almost two-thirds of the total analysis time 36. Traditional digestion methods include wet ...

Scientists around the world have been searching food, water and other environmental media for microplastics and for per- and ...

XRF sample preparation is a precise method of preparing analytes for elemental analysis. For example, organic samples being analyzed by XRF must be uniformly homogenized through the use of hydraulic ...

The family of electron microscopy techniques have become staple methods for imaging nanoscale objects, including nanoparticles, viruses and proteins. The appeal of electron microscopy as a ...

Running samples on any chromatography instrument involves sample preparation as a fundamental process. For even the highest quality instruments, sample clean-up is crucial in obtaining the best ...

Four principal methods govern the preparation of samples for XRF analysis, each representing a different trade-off between analytical quality and speed/cost of preparation. A method involving the ...

Single-cell proteomics provides information about a cell at its protein level, which can prove useful for anticancer drug resistance and cell differentiation research. However, current proteomics ...
