Can robots adapt their own working methods to solve complex tasks? Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a new form of AI, which, by observing human behavior, can adapt to perform its tasks in a changeable environment. The hope is that robots which can be flexible in this way will be able to work alongside humans to a much greater degree...
The Froilabo CRP Blast Freezer is designed to rapidly freeze blood plasma in preparation for long term storage in ULT freezers. To preserve the quality and function of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) the freezing process must be rapid and homogeneous. During a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) the Froilabo CRP Blast Freezer was installed on a production line which processed plasma product. In this test, the aim was to verify the final temperature inside the plasma bags was -70°C...

INTEGRA Biosciences is giving away 10 VOYAGER pipette kits in an exciting prize draw. The VOYAGER adjustable tip spacing pipette is the only electronic pipette offering automated adjustment of tip spacing currently on the market. It is easy to use, can be operated one-handed, and allows the parallel transfer of samples between formats, for example from tubes to plates, or from 96 well to 384 well plates. This significantly speeds up workflow, reducing transfer times and making sample reformatting much more efficient...
The Sero Krystal™ PDL range of coated microplates from Porvair Sciences set a new benchmark for reproducible cell culture even with challenging cell types. Many scientists would prefer to grow cells in a serum-free environment to more accurately mimic physiological conditions. However, this often presents challenges as cell lines often struggle to attach to traditional tissue culture plastics in the absence of serum....
