Since Gilson invented the continuously adjustable variable volume pipette 45 years ago, we have been an industry leader in liquid handling innovation, helping scientists by making lab life easier and being more productive. Gilson sees the next big innovation revolution around advances in the lab enabled by connected, smart devices containing technologies referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT). We sat down with Steve DeCabooter, Director of Product Information Platforms at Gilson, to discuss the growing role of the IoT in the laboratory, and how Gilson’s connected pipettes will contribute to this trend and infuse research with greater traceability and verifiability.
Manual sample preparation and treatment is a laborious process requiring constant attention in the lab. Here’s how to optimize and automate your SPE workflows.
How to Stay Safe and Comfortable in High-Pressure Lab Environments
Positive-displacement technology, like that used in our MICROMAN® E pipettes, is ideal when working with infectious, viscous, foaming, hot, cold, or volatile liquids because the disposable piston within the capillary piston (CP) tip is in direct contact with the sample. The CP technology thus removes any air cushion inside the pipette and ensures the volume accuracy is not affected by the fluid's properties.
As laboratory scientists and researchers progress through college, a choice looms ahead – academia vs industry. Both positions provide scientists and researchers a home to hang their lab pipette, but the experiences are different. Learn more about the differences between each.
This tutorial will show you how to use TRACKMAN Connected and PipettePilot to create a quick and flexible ELISA protocol.
To make the qPCR technique more reproducible, scientists need liquid handling protocols that can be readily automated, modified, and transferred between different instruments without affecting the quality of the data itself.
We interviewed Dr. Francesco Fiorentino, Founder and CSO of Kitos Biotech, to discuss his lab and its transition to automated liquid handling. Learn more about their story and how they have gained a competitive advantage in the market of preclinical research.
As globalized food trade has become more common in recent years, improved screening methods combined with food inspection investigations have put a large amount of pressure on the food and beverage industry to improve quality assurance and control. This pressure led to the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), which aims to ensure the U.S. food supply is safe by shifting the focus of federal regulators from responding to contamination to preventing contamination.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychotropic cannabinoid from the Cannabis sativa L. (Cannabaceae) plant. Researchers have shown that CBD’s medicinal properties may be of use for treating a variety of conditions including pain, inflammation, epilepsy, and cancer.1,2 Recently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first cannabis-derived drug (Epidiolex®) to treat children with rare forms of epilepsy.
