Chaperones keep the tumor suppressor protein p53 in check. The anti-tumor protein p53 can decide on the life or death of a cell: If it detects damage in the cell's genome, the protein pushes the cell to suicide. New research conducted at Technical University of Munich (TUM) shows that this inborn cancer prevention only works when special proteins, known as chaperones, allow it to take place....

Merck, a leading science and technology company, has announced that it has opened the next round of applications for startup companies to participate in the global Merck Accelerator program. Startups can choose to participate in one of the two programs, either at the company’s Innovation Center at global headquarters in Darmstadt or at its China Innovation Hub in Shanghai.
Miele’s latest range of laboratory washer accessories make loading times shorter, helping to save valuable research time. The EasyLoad collection, for Miele’s under-bench PG model washers, also has the added benefits of being flexible and robust. Water is pushed out through the sides of the injector tip, as well as vertically, so items are cleaned effectively even if glassware is resting on the top of the injector. This saves loading time and makes it much simpler to train staff on operation....
Extending the Service Life of HPLC System by Filter Processing. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is an analysis method originated from classical liquid chromatography. It is fast and accurate, but the device is precise and expensive. Under this condition, it is particularly important to extend its service life by optimizing the operating processing and maintenance carefully. Here the Hawach recommends some membrane filtration methods...
Verdel Instruments Ltd, a spin-out company of the University of Warwick, raises seed investment of over £230,000 to develop new two-dimensional mass spectrometry (2DMS) technology. Disruptive 2DMS technique to make pharmaceutical research and food safety testing more accurate, more efficient, and at least 10 times quicker than current mass spectrometry approaches – for samples with many components.....
Agilent Technologies Inc. has introduced the newest member of its LC/MS portfolio at the American Society for Mass Spectrometry Conference (ASMS).
