Date: September 13, 1999Cell Separation Products Magnetic Cell Separation Technologies that isolate rare cell types to high purity are essential to the cell biology researcher. Understanding cell developmental pathways becomes increasingly significant as diagnosis and treatment of disease turns more to the molecular level.1 This diagnosis of cell-related diseases requires methods for detection, isolation, and analysis of individual cells regardless of their frequency.2 The hematopoietic system
The COVID-19 pandemic is still with us. Biomedical innovation has rallied to address that pressing concern while continuing to tackle broader research challenges.
Traveling to the ends of the earth in pursuit of biological quarry is not part of the job description for the average molecular biologist. But for anthropologist Don Melnick, going to work means trekking through the jungles of Southeast Asia for blood samples from the Javan silvery gibbon and other endangered animals. And the jobs of geneticist John Avise and biologist Brian Bowen entail long nights on tropical beaches waiting for nesting sea turtles. The following are the top ecology journal
