iPSC Quality Control The field of regenerative medicine has seen remarkable advancements with the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), offering new and unprecedented opportunities for disease modeling, drug discovery, and personalized therapeutic applications. However, generating iPSCs is a complex, time consuming process, that requires stringent quality control measures to ensure the reproducibility and […]
Disaster Recovery – Why build it into your Business Plan?
Disaster recovery is the process of preparing for and recovering from potential interruptions in an organization’s stability storage operations. This involves taking steps to ensure the preservation of valuable samples in the event of an unforeseen incident such as power failure, equipment malfunction or natural disasters. In this article we cover the major reasons why […]
High Performance Partnerships in Clinical Trials: Triangulating Success between CROs, Lab Services, and Sponsors
Introduction: Due to the complexity of clinical trials, high performance partnerships are paramount. The crucial role of Clinical Research Organizations (CROs) and sponsors is well established, but an underutilized relationship exists with specialist lab services. Picture a triangle, where each corner represents a pivotal partner in this relationship: the CRO, Lab Services, and Sponsor. How […]
Stability Storage – 3 Powerful Reasons to Outsource
Stability storage is a critical component of the pharmaceutical, medical device and life science industries. It plays a crucial role in early-stage product development to late-stage follow-up stability studies. These studies are critical because they provide evidence on how the quality of a drug substance/product/packaging varies with time under the influence of environmental factors such […]
Overcoming challenges in high-throughput biomarker discovery through Olink® Explore workflow
Challenges in proteomics In the past several decades researchers have had to rely on mass spectrometry-based techniques to quantify and identify the proteins involved in their samples. These techniques were low throughput however and often required difficult protocol optimizations and time-consuming data analysis pipelines. While useful, these techniques were inadequately slow and required a lot […]
4 Powerful Reasons to Outsource and Accelerate Pharmacogenomics Research
What is pharmacogenomics? Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is the study of how variation in certain genes correlates with the response of an individual to a particular drug or therapy. It involves the analysis of the genetic sequence of an individual to predict how they will respond to a compound. When a gene variant correlates with a particular […]
