After a microbiology-filled academic and research career, Diana Patzelt became the Global Project Manager for Microbial Enumeration Products at Sartorius (Göttingen, Germany), earning her the title of ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) could help biopharmaceutical manufacturers detect contamination in cell cultures sooner than conventional approaches, thereby helping to reduce waste and batch losses. The ...

From avoiding contamination disasters to fine-tuning growth conditions, mastering bacterial culture is both an art and a science. With antibiotic resistance on the rise, careful lab practices and ...

Cell culture is a deliciously inviting hub for bacteria, fungi, and mycoplasmas. However, as our own 'cell-culture sleuth' points out, failing to detect and eliminate contamination can alter all ...

This is the first novel technology that utilises machine learning to analyse unique ultraviolet light “fingerprints” on cell cultures to quickly identify presence of contamination Only requiring a ...

Mycoplasma contamination is a significant concern in cell culture laboratories, threatening research integrity and generating inaccurate experimental results. MycoFog. Image Credit: Scintica ...

Preventing mycoplasma contamination in the cell-culture lab can be a challenge. However, you can significantly reduce the risk of mycoplasma contamination and spread in your lab by implementing good ...

Although bioprocessors employ cell cultures to develop new treatments for viral infections, viral contamination can stymy any cell culture-based process, including the development of most any ...

PCR-based bacterial and fungal detection helps scientists efficiently analyze the sterility of their cell cultures, improving Mycoplasma testing and beyond. Scientists turn to PCR-based methods that ...

Cell culture is a fundamental technique in biotechnology and life sciences that involves growing and maintaining living cells outside their natural environment, typically in a controlled laboratory ...
