Read article Why Flow Cytometry–Based Cytotoxicity Assays Are Essential in Modern Drug Development

If you’ve worked in drug development, you already know that the road from discovery to clinical success is long, expensive, and rarely linear. One of the most pivotal checkpoints in that journey is cytotoxicity testing. Whether you’re developing a small molecule, a biologic, or a cell therapy like CAR‑T, the…

Read article Locked Nucleic Acids (LNAs) in PCR Assays: Enhanced Sensitivity and Specificity

Locked Nucleic Acids (LNAs) are RNA analogs that provide more stable Watson-Crick base-pairing. LNA ribonucleotides can be added into RNA and DNA oligonucleotides to increase the affinity of these oligonucleotides for their complementary sequences. In addition, these LNA present oligonucleotides have extraordinary single-nucleotide discrimination as well as enhanced stability, as…
