What are the most used animal-derived materials in scientific experiments? What are the main issues in terms of production and use? These were the two main questions that Cassotta et al. attempted to answer in their publication about "A worldwide survey on the use of
3D culture model to test chemotherapeutic drugs for treating leukemia In vitro drug testing of chemotherapeutic drugs The aim is to present and establish new drug testing approaches for new leukemic drug developments and testing. Personalized medicine becomes more and more important in order to lead
Nutrient media for the development of regenerative therapies In the latest interview at bionity.com, our CEO Dr. Hatim Hemeda talked about the history and background idea of PL BioScience to develop nutrient media for the development of regenerative therapies. As a young life science company we develop, produce
For all research and cell therapy approaches, cell expansion and thus cell culture media are used and needed. During the last decades (starting in the 1950s) animal serum was the “Gold Standard” for cell expansion because of its high growth factor content and universal use. Cell
