Evonetix’s DNA synthesis capability brings together patented semiconductor chip design and proprietary, thermally controlled synthesis chemistry, which will be integral to the Company’s future gene synthesis platforms...
Drug molecules and biofuels can be made to order by living cell factories, where biological enzymes do the job. Now researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have developed a computer model that can predict how fast enzymes work, making it possible to find the most efficient living factories, as well as to study difficult diseases. Enzymes are proteins found in all living cells. Their job is to act as catalysts that increase the rate of specific chemical reactions that take place in the cells....
Agilent Technologies has announced that it is collaborating with METTLER TOLEDO to address one of the biggest concerns in any laboratory—error-prone sample preparation.
