Bacterial Culture
Not all bacterial species grow optimally at the same temperature, so it is important to know the right conditions for the species you are trying to culture. Oxygen requirements vary too with some preferring aerobic and others anaerobic environments. Some may also grow better in a humidified
The Immune System and Cancer
The immune system targets infected and early cancerous cells for destruction. However, in advanced tumors, cancer cells can escape attack from the immune system and can even co-opt immune cells into promoting tumor development.
Future Food
Climate change and sustainability pose significant challenges to food production as we attempt to keep our ever-growing population fed, while limiting its environmental impact. Consequently, we are having to find new and inventive ways to produce and manufacture our food as well as revising some of our eating habits. To achieve this, however, requires novel technologies and food sources to create and maintain more sustainable food systems.

Heart Healthy Eating Plan
DASH is a heart healthy approach that has been scientifically proven to lower blood pressure and have other health benefits. With this flexible and balanced eating plan, you can enjoy plenty of fruits and vegetables, fish, poultry, lean meats, beans, nuts, whole grains and low-fat dairy. There are no special foods or hard-to-follow recipes required.
Cell‒Cell Communication in Health and Disease
Cells use a variety of mechanisms to transmit essential information, facilitating their growth, response and survival. But sometimes, things go wrong... Miscommunication between cells can interfere with crucial signaling processes. By understanding these pathways and pinpointing the source of miscommunication, we can improve the management and treatment of disease.
Lab Water Purification
From routine cleaning tasks to sensitive analytical applications, water is a fundamental resource used in the laboratory. However, water purity can have a significant impact on experiments and their accuracy, making it crucial to select water with the appropriate level of purity for the application it will be used for.

Tips to Reduce Sodium
Limit salty processed foods. Skip or limit frozen dinners and mixed dishes such as pizza, packaged mixes, canned soups or broths, and salad dressings, which often have a lot of sodium. Prepare and eat more foods at home, where you can control how much sodium is added
ANTIBODIES IN SCREENING
Antibodies have transcended their biological roles to become effective therapeutic agents. In this infographic, we will outline key screening strategies used in the development and production of therapeutic antibodies, including high- throughput screening and artificial intelligence (AI).
Detecting and Removing Mycotoxins in the Food Chain
Mycotoxins are among the most poisonous compounds ever discovered. Nearly 25% of global crop outputs are contaminated with mycotoxins, leading to billions of dollars in losses each year. Livestock ingestion of mycotoxin-containing feed can also result in downstream incorporation of the toxins into animal products like milk, eggs and meat.

Milestones in Cancer Immunology
The field of cancer immunology concerns the study of the interaction between the immune system and cancer cells. These abnormal cells grow uncontrollably, forming tumors and spreading around the body.
Tumor Biology
Comprehensive knowledge of cancer biology and the tumor microenvironment, including cell–cell communication, cellular characteristics, cell–matrix interactions and abnormal physiology, is crucial to elucidating the complexities of the disease.
