Early in the drug discovery process, it is necessary to begin studies on enantiomerically pure compounds due to the potential for unique efficacy and adverse effects associated with one enantiomer ...

In nanoscale particle research, precise control and separation have long been a bottleneck in biotechnology. Researchers at the University of Oulu have now developed a new method that improves ...

Most researchers know they need a pure protein. Few talk about how genuinely difficult it is to get one. A cell lysate contains thousands of proteins competing for the same space. Your target is in ...

Ultracentrifugation is used to separate macromolecules into different component parts based on the size of the particles in the mixture. Different kinds of particles such as viruses, bacteria, and ...

Antibodies are essential proteins produced by the immune system that recognize and bind to specific targets, known as antigens. Their high specificity and affinity make antibodies invaluable tools in ...

There are two types of enzymes produced by biological cells: one type of enzymes that are produced inside the cell and then secreted outside the cell for action, called extracellular enzymes. Most of ...
