For food and beverage companies, optimizing the appearance of a product can be just as important as improving the flavor. Chemical research shows that color and flavor perception are integrally linked. In one study, wine drinkers detected different underlying flavors in a white wine than they did in the same […]
Tuberculosis is a disease that most immunologists and cellular biologists will be familiar with. As a bacterium, m. tuberculosis is notable for its ability to take root in human hosts for long periods of time, exhibiting extreme genetic variability, drug resistance, stealth and ultimately lethality.1 Because of this, TB is […]
Barcoding in the context of laboratory operations is often a contentious topic, and with good reason. From the perspective of administrators, there’s no reason that every individual item in the lab shouldn’t have a barcode for tracking via software because of the proven benefits that barcodes provide.1 From the perspective […]
More than ever, customers today are looking to support sustainable companies. According to a Nielsen survey in 2015, 66 percent of consumers are willing to pay extra to purchase products from companies that they view as being “socially responsible.” That figure is up more than 10 percent from 2014 (when […]
The functional beverage market has been booming for several years now, as customers look for alternative drinks that can help them fulfill their nutritional and lifestyle goals. And based on the products highlighted at the Summer Fancy Food Show, the latest trend within the functional beverage market is specialty water. […]
As all scientists know, collaboration makes the lab function. Without collaboration, science itself is impossible. This is true in every field of science, including oncology drug target finding, according to a presentation issued at the AACR Special Conference on DNA Repair.1 In the presentation, researchers unveiled a new piece of […]
Laboratory research is a compilation of data production spread across various projects. Each project typically has its own slice of a larger departmental budget, or is funded by a specific grant. So long as the projects are separately funded on paper, they’re held to creating a data set that’s unique […]
The art of crafting delicious food goes beyond simply making a dish that tastes good. Eating a true masterpiece is a full sensory experience. Think of the most delicious bread you’ve ever eaten. Chances are you don’t just remember the way it tasted, soft and fresh and maybe just a […]
For life science researchers today, keeping a well-organized lab is essential for lab productivity and efficiency. With lab space at a premium in both industry and academia, it is important for life science researchers to find ways to reduce clutter. Nevertheless, when you walk into a life science lab today, […]
