what about a second hand market ?
I couldn't fiind any ''for sale'' threads, especialy for older models , older but still useful

We really should start a for-sale forum. I haven't only because I and several users of the forum have been threatened (literally) by vendors for trying to sell equipment on here...as resale is "not allowed" by their terms of service. -
Allow Used Equipment Sales Postings
If you can legally resell your car, then you can legally resell your lab equipment. The vendors lawyers are blowing smoke.
Legal minds will ,of course, have various opinions ( at $300/hr., of course).
That said, the vendor might have some grounds to deny support and needed supplemental products. What good is a Gillette Mach 3 razor without a Gillette blade?
The vendors might think it's hurting sales but might want to rethink the issue. Hondas can usually command a premium precisely because there is less depreciation than with other brands ... so owners can resell their Accords and Civics more easily.
I recommend you go ahead and allow used equipment postings by assuming it's legal. If a vendor complains, go ahead and remove the post ... but do replace it with the vendors complaint. Then we'll know what's what and can "re-brand" that vendor in our own minds. Perhaps a little market pressure will keep any bullies in line.Comment

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...05-06-2024, 07:48 AM -
The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
