Anyone got any useful advice for what to do with extra DNA 1000 chips for the Bioanalyzer? We've got at least 3 dozen extra collecting in our drawers. What's everyone do with their extras?

If you are using the BA for High Sensitivity assays still, you can buy High Sensitivity reagents and use them with the DNA 1000 chips. You just need to load the chip according to the High Sensitivity protocol and disregard the well labels on the DNA 1000 chip (ladder will go in the well that is labeled sample 12 and gel dye matrix in the well for the ladder).Josh Kinman -
To expand on this a little, it appears that all Bioanalyzer DNA and RNA chips are the same chip, just with a different sticker.Originally posted by jdk787 View PostComment

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 -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
