New Range of Kits for Assessing Oxidative Stress for Disease Research
 23 Jun 2010: Oxidative stress and associated damage to cellular lipids, proteins and DNA can occur when cellular mechanisms fail to deal with the increasing loads of ROS (generation of reactive oxygen species). To detect and quantify this oxidative stress AMSBIO has expanded a range of assay kits. The new kits are highly sensitive, delivered ready-to-use and give reproducible results.

Characterization of Ion Channels in Stem Cell-derived Cardiomyocytes on An Automated Parallel Patch Clamp System
22 Jun 2010: In this application note Molecular Devices use the PatchXpress 7000A automated parallel patch clamp system is used to record Na, K and Ca currents from stem cell-derived mouse cardiomyocytes. The collaborative effort demonstrates that the combination of “ready-to-use” cardiomyocytes with an automated patch clamp system offers a powerful assay platform for fast assessment of compound efficacy and for safety profiling of lead compounds in a biologically relevant system.
