WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD? Pathology laboratory managers have come together to find out how commercial change will impact the field
REVOLUTION ’ IN THE HIGH SPEED IMAGING OF CELLS Live cell imaging has a problem – how do you image fast cellular events without loosing spatial information? The answer, it turns out, is to get your optics in a bit of a spin say Carl Zeiss
TAKING CONTROL OF TUBERCULOSIS Current diagnostic tools take weeks to provide accurate results allowing time for co-infection and spread of disease. Here, Dr Ellen Jo Baron sets the scene for a new diagnostic test able to revolutionise TB management on a global scale
IN A SPIN Just like a DJ working a club - when it comes to getting the perfect mix, it’s all about how you spin…
HOW TO SOLVE A PROBLEM LIKE C. DIFFICILE Detecting the highly infectious and dangerous Clostridium difficile is fraught with false positives and negatives – Professor Wren says the answer lies in a two-step approach
PARTICLE SIZE ANALYSIS AS STANDARD With the advent of high power computers and high resolution video cameras, microscopy with image analysis is becoming one of the highest resolution techniques available today. Here we look at the development of a multimodal glass microsphere image analysis standard and evaluate the performance of one the latest automated instruments
NOT SUCH A GOOD EGG? Vaccine production has never been more in the limelight and traditional egg-based production has proved it’s self to be robust – but is it time to take on the adaptability of a cell-culture based approach?
MAKING SCIENCE CHILD’S PLAY How do you get kids excited about the various different careers available in science? It’s down to scientists to ‘sell’ a scientific career to the next generation says Georgina Lavender. And what better place to do it than at the Schools Science Conference 2009
GOOD RESULTS ON A PLATE When it comes to choosing the right microplate for your automated processes, there is a lot to consider. Here Toby Hampshire gives us a handy guide
SECRETS PRESERVED IN TIME From understanding growth processes in minerals and how metals are deposited within the earth, to understanding fish migration patterns - Zircon dating technology at the Natural History Museum has proved a vital tool in reconstructing the past
ACCESS TO EXPERTISE Here we get the low-down on a new £4 million proteomics facility in Newcastle launched by Cels - the organisation driving the growth of the North East’s healthcare economy
UNDIVIDED ATTENTION When it comes to the isolation of genomic DNA, total RNA and total denatured protein – the best yield and quality comes from a single undivided sample
ANALYSE THIS! Nicola Beech visits contaminated land analysis experts Envirolab on the eve of the grand opening of its new inorganics laboratory
