How can Nuvonis help to fight the SARS-CoV-2 pandemics?
At the end of the year 2019, a cluster of severe pneumonia of unknown cause was described in Wuhan (Eastern China) and a SARS-like acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was noted in these patients. Early in January 2020, sequencing revealed a novel coronavirus (now termed SARS-CoV-2) as the causal factor for the disease designated as COVID-19. The pandemic caused by the virus has unforeseen ...

The novel suspension quail cell line CCX.E10 is an ideal cell substrate for NDV virus and vector production
Newcastle disease is a highly infectious viral disease of the avian species. The causative agent is Newcastle disease virus (NDV), which belongs to the family of Paramyxoviridae. Many commercial vaccines, both live and inactivated, are available on the market and protect from NDV infection and disease. In addition, viral vectors based on Newcastle disease virus have been previously ...

What are Vero cells?
Vero cellsare a continuous adherent cell line that is frequently used in cell culture and plays an important role in worldwide vaccine and vector production (manufacturing). Unlike other mammalian cells, they do not secrete interferon alpha or beta when infected by viruses – this is one of the reasons that efficient replication of many viruses can be achieved in Vero cells, ...

Project - Sublingual Exenatide
Liraglutide and exenatide are both belonging to the class of diabetes products called GLP-1 analogues. The GLP-1 analogues have established themselves in the past years as one of the superior drug classes for treatment of diabetes type II in terms of blood glucose lowering and weight loss. Because of the latter, they are being used more and more also in the treatment of obesity. Until now, both ...

What is Label-Free Quantification Technique?
The protein label-free quantification technique analyzes protein enzymatic peptide fragments by liquid-quality coupling and compares the signal intensity of the corresponding peptide fragments in different samples for relative quantification of the protein. This method is not dependent on isotope labeling and does not require expensive stable isotope labels as internal reference. The technique is ...

Intracellular Protein Crosslinking Detection Methods
What is Intracellular Protein Crosslinking? Intracellular protein crosslinking usually refers to the linking of two amino acids between intracellular protein molecules or within protein molecules by covalent bonds other than peptide bonds. Intracellular crosslinking is currently considered a post-translational modification of proteins. It plays an important role in the structure and function of ...

Targeted Region Sequencing in Human Disease Studies and Clinical Care
Introduction to target region sequencing Since the introduction of Sanger sequencing in 1977, genetic sequencing has been greatly improved with costs simultaneously falling. With the ability to rapidly produce large volumes of sequencing data, next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables researchers to obtain whole genome or targeted regions of samples. Targeted region sequencing is preferred by ...

Bioinformatics Workflow for Whole Genome Sequencing
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has the capacity to greatly enhance genomic knowledge and understand mysteries of life by utilizing the most advanced genetic sequencing technologies. WGS can be used for variant calling, genome annotation, phylogenetic analysis, reference genome construction, and more. WGS tries to cover the whole genome, but actually covers 95% of the genome with technical ...

Bioinformatics Analysis of Viral Metagenomic Sequencing
Viral metagenomics is the study of viruses in environmental and biological samples by utilizing next generation sequencing that generates very large data sets. Viral metagenomics analyzes viral sequences to deduce the impact of viruses on the environment of human health. Unlike amplicon sequencing, metagenomics obtains and investigates genetic material directly from environmental samples, which ...

PEG Linkers for Antibody Drug Conjugates
Antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is one of the fastest growing fields in tumor therapy, which consists of monoclonal antibody (Antibody), linker (Linker) and active drug (Payload). So far, there are only 15 drugs on the market in the world. However, with the development of some perfect antibody modification techniques, advanced site-specific coupling techniques and powerful small-molecule toxins, ...

Vaccine Freezers for Vaccine Storage and Handling
Vaccine Freezers are required for the safe storage of vaccines that must be kept at extremely low temperatures. Without sufficient storage, a vaccine is likely to form deviations, drastically impacting the vaccines efficiency. At Froilabo we work to support the medical and pharmaceutical industry with the equipment they require to ensure safe storage solutions. Vaccine storage has been in high ...

Clinical Pharmacology of Antibody-Drug Conjugates
Unlike the development of most small or large molecules, which typically measures only one part or the metabolite for pharmacokinetic analysis, multiple parts of ADCs need to be measured to characterize their PK properties. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the clinical pharmacology of ADCs is critical for selecting a safe and effective dose for patients. Biological Analysis of ADC In order ...
