Product news

Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, today announced that the complete pre-plated Maybridge HitFinder™ Collection of 14,400 drug-like screening compounds can be browsed online using an interactive online viewer at the company article page.

In this pre-selected diverse screening library, users can view and assess the exact structures in each plate making the process of identifying potential drug leads easier, more convenient and cost effective.

This premier offering of drug-like screening compounds maintains the superior structural diversity of the Maybridge Screening Collection by using an industry standard clustering algorithm to select a statistically representative sample of the full collection. All compounds fit Lipinski guidelines for "drug-likeness" and have purity greater than 90 percent. Additionally, they have been selected to be non-reactive, ensuring fewer false positives and higher quality results. The Maybridge HitFinder Collection is also now available "off the shelf" as a 0.25µmol dry film supplied in 384 well microplates, in addition to the original 1µmol 96 shallow well plate format.

For more information about the Maybridge HitFinder™, please visit the company article page.

ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.Data AnalysisData analysis hardware and software is available to make data processing straight-forward yet powerful. Data software can be used for math and stats, technical graphing and image analysis. In addition, software is available for specific data analysis of electrophoresis, densitometry, ELISA and DNA sequencing.Chem / BioinformaticsCheminformatics and bioinformatics are computational techniques used in chemistry and biology, respectively, for data acquisition, processing and storage. Cheminformatics focuses on compound information, whereas bioinformatics is mainly applied to analysis and modeling of genomics, genetic and sequencing information. Hardware and software is available for data acquisition, analysis, management and storage.Data MiningData mining is an important process for extracting information, patterns and trends from data. Data mining software, databases, reference materials and storage packages are available to process lab data.Protein PurificationProtein purification is a vital step in drug discovery, therapeutics, biotech and life science research. The purification process typically involves subcellular or membrane protein extraction with cell lysis kits, separation of proteins from cell debris by filtration or spin columns, and the isolation of proteins of interest from other proteins and impurities with affinity purification (including fusion protein tags and antibody binding proteins A, G and L), immunoprecipitation or chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange, size exclusion and immobilized metal affinity chromatography. All purification methods come in multiple formats for your laboratory needs, including agarose or magnetic beads, resins, columns and filter plates.
