Host protein receptor expression is the ultimate factor that determines if a host cell is permissible to viral entry and infection. In viral research, it is essential to determine which cell types, primary or immortalized, are permissible to viral...

Many multimode microplate readers use monochromator-based optics for fluorescence intensity measurements, allowing great flexibility to use multiple fluorescent dyes and stains. Most of these systems offer a fixed bandwidth. This offering works well...

The rapid cooling enables efficient switching between multiple applications without unwanted temperature influences.

Calcium flux assays are fluorescence-based assays designed to detect the transient release of intracellular calcium stores. These assays typically rely on cell-permeable dyes with fluorescence properties that are calcium sensitive.

Viral infection of host cells triggers diverse cellular responses, including immune mechanisms that function to block viral propagation and clear infected cells. Detection and characterization of the types of viral host responses that are mounted,...

Agilents BioTek’s dual-action manifold design allows independent control and positioning of both the aspirate and dispense sections of the manifold, providing major benefits

Robust cell-based research relies on the consistent maintenance and evaluation of samples and reproducible assay setup. This can be particularly hard to achieve given the complex behavior of cell biology and the variable nature of many cell culture...

Agilent BioTek automated imaging systems combine convenient and reliable image acquisition capabilities with powerful image analysis tools to support a full range of histology and whole organism imaging applications. From color brightfield to...

Cells are motile objects that continuously move in the x- and y-direction, even when plated in a two-dimensional manner. The ability to track single objects over time is therefore critical to scientists in a variety of research areas, including...

Molecular biology and biochemical assays run the gamut from routine ELISAs to microvolume nucleic acid and protein quantification. Microplate reader-based studies, including endpoint and kinetic, single- and multiwavelength formats, are essential...
