Product news

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., will showcase its latest technological innovations in analytical instruments, laboratory equipment, software, services, consumables and reagents within Thermo Scientific Stand G53, Hall 9 at Biotechnica 2011, being held Oct. 11-13, in Hannover, Germany. In addition, as part of the Innovation Forum during Biotechnica, the company will detail its new Thermo Scientific Direct PCR portfolio in a presentation entitled ”Versatile tools for molecular biology workflows.”

The Innovation Forum will begin at 2:45 p.m. on Oct. 13, in Stand F69, Hall 9 and will focus on methods for optimizing molecular biology workflows. These workflows – from nucleic acid purification to amplification of target sequences using PCR – demand precision in each step to maintain the integrity of downstream data. For target sequence amplification, the Thermo Scientific PCR product line offers a complete portfolio of reagents, instruments and plastics.

The Thermo Scientific PCR line offers significant time- and cost-saving advantages by enabling amplification without purification. This is possible because robust Thermo Scientific Phusion and Phire DNA polymerase enzymes incorporate fusion protein technology, in which a dsDNA binding domain is attached to the polymerase to enhance their PCR performance. As a result, when combined with the Thermo Scientific Piko thermal cycler and ultra-thin walled plastics, an entire amplification protocol can be completed in 30 minutes.

Visit Thermo Scientific Stand G53, Hall 9 at Biotechnica 2011 to see the latest innovations in:

• PCR Reagents, Thermal Cyclers and Consumables
• Reagents for Molecular Biology
• High-Performance, Ultra Low Temperature Freezers
• High-Productivity Centrifuges and Carbon Fiber Rotors
• Flexible Liquid Handling and Microplate Instrumentation Solutions
• Advanced CO2 and Microbiological Incubators and Ovens
• Cell Culture and Sample Storage Systems
• Industry-leading Water Purification and Shakers

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins. Find the best cell and tissue culture products, kits and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.PCR and Thermal CyclingPolymerase chain reaction (PCR) kits and thermal cyclers are used for the in vitro amplification of DNA permitting subsequent analysis and experimental procedures. Explore a range of high-quality polymerase, primers and nucleotides or simplify your workflow with a PCR mastermix. Find reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and cDNA synthesis kits for RNA products and libraries. Quantitatively measure the amplification of DNA with real-time PCR (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) kits and systems, and discover automated PCR setup solutions to increase throughput.
