Protocol
Noninvasive 3D imaging Using Optical Coherence Tomography
This protocol describes a novel OCT-based technology for imaging and analysis of 3D structures, such as, spheroid /organoids, tissues for growth morphological evaluation, quantification of internal cavities, drug sensitivity testing to capture the events leading to tumor cell death, and assessing e...

Protocol
Sorting of water-in-oil emulsions with bacteria using a fluorescent nucleic acid probe
To isolate water-in-oil emulsion droplets containing bacteria from those that do not contain bacteriawe have developed a simple and reliable selective sorting method that allows bacteria-containing droplets to be isolated on our microfluidic chip cell sorter, On-chip Sort. Bacteria-containing drople... More
Protocol
Removal of rare undifferentiated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by multi-step negative sorting
In the field of regenerative medicine involving ES or iPS cells, differentiated cells are often cultured to tissues and implanted to patients. However, there is an unneglectable problem that some remaining undifferentiated cells in the implanted tissue may cause tumors. Therefore, a complete removal... More

Benchling & uniQure: Bringing a gene therapy pioneer from paper to the cloud
uniQure is rapidly advancing a pipeline of AAV-based gene therapies to treat patients with hemophilia, Huntington’s disease, and other severe genetic diseases, but they needed a digital solution that could track their gene therapy workflows end-to-end and enable international collaboration. Learn ho... More
Protocol
Rapid metabolic phenotyping in SARS-CoV-2 patients using the impact II QTOF MS system
The impact II QTOF system meets the critical elements of sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy, and precision for targeted metabolite analysis. The continuous collection of both MS and MS/MS data provides an exponentially deeper and broader pool of data valuable for subsequent retrospective discovery o... More
