Addgene is excited to announce the launch of our partnership with the Institute for Protein Innovation (IPI). Together, we’ll be working to provide researchers with a collection of IPI’s well-validated and ready-to-use recombinant antibodies. The first collection, a set of ...
IBEX is a highly multiplexed tissue imaging method that uses iterative staining and chemical bleaching to allow for high-resolution imaging without degrading the tissue (Radtke et al., 2020, 2022). I do mean highly multiplexed: you can image over 65 different parameters using ...
There are a lot of viruses out there – most of which we would all like to steer clear of! However, a subset of viruses are commonly used in the lab as tools and we all might benefit from getting to know them a little better. Here we will discuss the four most commonly used lab ...
Using AAV vectors in complex biological systems can be tricky at best, and downright infuriating at worst. While it is tempting to just dive right in and start injecting your virus, a successful AAV experiment starts with validation and optimization. Although there are different ...
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a single stranded, Parvoviridae DNA virus, packaged in a non-enveloped icosahedral capsid, that can be used to express genes of interest in cell and animal models. AAVs are non-pathogenic, do not integrate into the host genome, and can be ...
Last summer, we posted about our bioinformatics quest, which led us to Seqera Labs, a company that provides open source workflow orchestration software for data pipeline processing (Nextflow), cloud infrastructure, and secure collaboration.
You may be familiar with immunofluorescence (IF, often referred to as immunocytochemistry (ICC) when the sample is cultured cells or immunohistochemistry (IHC) with tissues), where an antibody binds a target protein in your sample, then a fluorescently labeled secondary antibody ...
