We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Monoclonal Antibodies",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Laboratorytalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Centrifugal partition chromatography in the UK from
Chromsolutions, which we summarised at the time by saying "ChromSolutions will distribute the Armen Instruments range of centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) instruments in the UK and Ireland".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release HuCAL-Fab fragment neutralises HIV-1 strains from
AbD Serotec: "NIDDK scientists detect new epitope on HIV-1 protein gp41 using AbD Serotec-generated recombinant mini-antibody; research published in the Journal of Virology and abstract available on PubMed".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Millipore
concerning its CellPrime
- take a look at Animal-free cell cultures for bioprocessing
which says: "Millipore and Novozymes strike an alliance to accelerate the launch of new animal-free supplements and provide customers with a secure source of high performance cell culture products".
Take a look also at the news release from Millipore, Monoclonal antibodies for stem cell research,
as well as Automation boosts monoclonal antibody production from Beckman Coulter,
and New Imagen test for hMPV launched from Oxoid.
