• Bayer focuses resources on growth and innovation

  Bayer plans to invest its resources even more systematically in growing the company and enhancing its innovative capability. The focus will be on researching, developing and marketing new products, particularly in HealthCare and CropScience, and on expanding activities in the emerging markets. This more

• Manufacturing Safety Raises Concern

  Last week Pharmaceutical heads met as a result of a drugs recall after a pill mix up of breast cancer pills. The drug, Fresenius Kabi’s Anastrozole, was made by the German company’s subsidiary in India. The ingredient mix up led to the voluntary recall of 7,192 bottles, each containing 30 tablets. more

• Radio chip and sensor in one

  RFID technology is on the advance. But, up to now radio chips primarily supply data for the identification of products. Researchers have now developed a transponder which measures temperature, pressure and humidity. The chip with sensor function could revolutionize the applications market. »Special more

• Pressure Digestion for Sample Preparation
  

  What analyst does not wish for a universal method for processing all his or her samples? Pressure digestion represents just such a procedure for sample digestions and is therefore one of the standard sample preparation procedures currently employed in analytical chemistry for element quantification more

• CO2 Gas Calibration with eVol®, the digital analytical syringe
  

  Using eVol® for injection of different volumes of CO2, CEP/TEP was able to achieve calibration of their instrument with levels of accuracy and precision not previously obtained using manual syringes. In addition, the needles on the eVol® syringes allow for sample collection directly from the gas bottle – similarly to the manual syringes used previously more

• Increased Vitality of Primary Mouse Hepatocytes Isolated with Liberase TM Research Grade
  

  As drugs applied to organisms are metabolized via the liver, hepatocytes represent a useful and common study model. Primary hepatocytes are widely used to evaluate the toxic effects of drugs and xenobiotics. A variety of metabolic parameters have been described to analyze the functionality of hepatocytes. Via those parameters, the toxic effect of substances can easily be quantified. One drawback of primary hepatocyte culture is the short duration of survival and the high sensibility of the cells. Therefore, every step towards a more gentle method of isolating the cells increases cell number and vitality and thus improves the outcome of biomedical research applications more

• GC-Biased Gene Conversion in Yeast Is Specifically Associated with Crossovers: Molecular Mechanisms and Evolutionary Significance

  GC-biased gene conversion (gBGC) is a process associated with recombination that favors the transmission of GC alleles over AT alleles during meiosis. gBGC plays a major role in genome evolution in many eukaryotes. However, the molecular mechanisms of gBGC are still unknown. Different steps of the more

• Nocturnal Light Environments Influence Color Vision and Signatures of Selection on the OPN1SW Opsin Gene in Nocturnal Lemurs

  Although loss of short-wavelength-sensitive (SWS) cones and dichromatic color vision in mammals has traditionally been linked to a nocturnal lifestyle, recent studies have identified variation in selective pressure for the maintenance of the OPN1SW opsin gene (and thus, potentially dichromacy) amon more

• Evolutionary Analysis of the Contact System Indicates that Kininogen Evolved Adaptively in Mammals and in Human Populations

  Activation of the contact system leads to the cleavage of kininogen by plasma kallikrein resulting in kinin release and in the initiation of the intrinsic pathway of coagulation. Proteolysis of kininogen also generates antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and can be induced by diverse pathogens. Thus, the more

• Turkey Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Report Q2 2012

  BMI View: While the Turkish pharmaceutical industry has achieved some concessions following additional price cuts and public discounts announced in November 2011, the impact of the November decree remains negative. That aside, BMI emphasises that the number-one concern for drugmakers in 2012 should more
