We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Tissue Culture",
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 Automation boosts monoclonal antibody production from
Beckman Coulter, which we summarised at the time by saying "Abcam and Beckman Coulter collaborate to create one of the world's most sophisticated, automated systems for the production of monoclonal antibodies for use in research".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release 35mm dish has built-in cell relocation grid from
Ibidi: "As the dish allows scientists to address 400 individual positions separately, each process can be followed with a statistical relevant number of cells in one experiment".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Progen Scientific
concerning its SGC 110 environmental chamber
- take a look at Creating the right environment in chambers
which says: "Available from Progen Scientific the SGC110, made by Weiss GallenKamp, is available in a variety of guises and offers a host of features and benefits".
Take a look also at the news release from Integra Biosciences, Small-scale biomanufacturing process optimisation,
as well as Primer set determines purity and quality of DNA from Beckman Coulter,
and Performance and versatility in liquid transfer from Anachem.
