Let's Remember...
"If there is to be peace in the world, there must be peace in the nations. If there is to be peace in the nations, there must be peace in the cities. If there is to be peace in the cities, there must be peace between neighbours. If there is to be peace between neighbours, there must be peace in the home. If there is to be peace in the home, there must be peace in the heart.” ~ Lao-tse

NEW PRODUCTS
Primary Human Hepatocytes
Cell Guidance Systems is pleased to announce the availability of Primary Human Hepatocytes
for use in in-vitro toxicology assays.
Primary human hepatocytes provide the closest in-vitro model to human liver, and therefore are the 
gold standard for in-vitro assays to predict the in-vivo effect of compounds and candidate drugs.
Ethically-sourced primary human hepatocytes are offered in three grades to suit
a range of different applications.
• Plateable Grade - ability to form a monolayer
• Suspension Grade - grow in suspension
• Spheroid Grade - form spheroids in culture

Mirus TransMission – Mixed Messages: a SNiP Double Feature
In each SNiP or “Small News in Pieces” Mirus highlights standout research articles they’ve come 
across that feature Mirus Bio products…in bite-size pieces. Their eyes are always on the lookout for Mirus products in novel applications, and when choosing the topic for this recent post, they stumbled across not one, but two unique studies to share! In both studies discussed, Mirus’ TransIT®-mRNA Transfection Kit was pivotal in establishing an mRNA delivery workflow for some unique recipients: whole live organisms!
Hycult Biotech – Human Classical & Alternative Complement Pathway Assays
Hycult Biotech has developed human classical and alternative complement pathway assays in response to a growing demand for quantitative investigation of complement inhibitors or regulators at lower sample dilutions. This development aims to address the issue of false negative results, enabling more accurate and reliable analysis of complement pathway activity.
