How to Daily Maintain Biosafety Cabinets?
As one of the common equipment in the laboratory, do you know the daily maintenance of biosafety cabinets? Today, this article is useful for you to get knowledge of biosafety cabinets’ maintenance. 4 Maintenance of Biosafety Cabinets The studio and biosafety cabinet should be cleaned and disinfected after each experiment. Once the pre-filter of biosafety cabinets is damaged,…
2023 Latest Gel Electrophoresis System Knowledge Guide
Electrophoresis is a chemical process in which charges in a solution flow toward opposite electrodes. In the 1930s, Swedish biophysicist Arne Tisselius developed electrophoresis while studying blood proteins. In 1948, Arne Tisselius was awarded the New Prize in Chemistry for his contribution to the technique of electrophoresis. Gel electrophoresis is one of the laboratory methods for…
2023 Best Knowledge Guide to Vortex Mixers
A vortex mixer is a simple laboratory device or device used to mix laboratory samples in test tubes, well plates, or flasks. Brothers Jack A. and Harold D. Kraft developed the vortex mixer while working at Kraft Apparatus, Inc., a manufacturer of laboratory equipment, in Mount Vernon, New York. They use fairly simple processes to precisely…
8 Things to Know about Patient Monitor
A patient monitoring system is a system or device that helps healthcare providers to monitor the physiological signals of a patient’s health. It is used for the observation and measurement of patients’ health parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature, blood-oxygen saturation, and many other parameters of critically ill patients. Such accurate and immediate information…
7 Types of PCR Amplifiers
PCR amplification instrument, also known as PCR gene amplification instrument, PCR nucleic acid amplification instrument, or polymerase chain reaction nucleic acid amplification instrument, is a kind of amplification instrument for specific DNA using PCR (Polymerase chain reaction, polymerase chain reaction) technology. Instruments and equipment are widely used in medical and biological laboratories, for example, they…
What Is a Biosafety Cabinet? Principle, Application, and Types
A biosafety cabinet (BSC) is a box-type air purification negative pressure safety device that can prevent the escape of aerosols containing dangerous or unknown biological particles during the experimental operation process. Biological safety cabinets are used to protect the operator, the laboratory environment, and experimental materials from exposure to infectious aerosols and splash when operating…
Fluorescence Microscope Basics Guide – Principle ＆ Application
A fluorescence microscope is a microscopic optical observation technology that uses light of a specific wavelength to irradiate the object under inspection to produce fluorescence for microscopic inspection, which has a history of more than 100 years. In recent years, due to the wide application of immunofluorescence in the field of medical research and diagnosis, FISH…
What Is Fluorescence Microscopy?
Fluorescence microscopy is a type of optical microscope that uses fluorescence and phosphorescence instead of or in addition to reflection and absorption to study the properties of organic or inorganic substances. Fluorescence is the emission of light from substances that absorb light or other electromagnetic radiation, while phosphorescence is a specific type of photoluminescence related…
High Speed Refrigerated Centrifuge – 4 Problems and Correct Use
A high speed refrigerated centrifuge is a machine that uses the strong centrifugal force generated by the rotor speed of the centrifuge to accelerate the sedimentation speed of the particles in the liquid and separate the substances with different sedimentation coefficients and buoyant densities in the sample. The laboratory high speed refrigerated centrifuge is an instrument that separates substances…
Fluorescence Microscopes – Good For Pathological Research?
As you know, fluorescence microscopes can be used in different fields. Today, this article will introduce the application of fluorescence microscopes in pathological research. Components of a Fluorescent Light Microscope The fluorescent light microscope is made up of the following five parts. 1. Fluorescent dyes: compounds that bind to biomolecules of interest and re-emit light…
