Vaccines, cell and gene therapy products must be certified as mycoplasma-free to meet regulatory requirements. Hence, mycoplasma contamination testing is a vital step in the biologics manufacturing process.

In this episode of Teach Me in 10, we are joined by two experts in the field to discuss the future of pipetting.

Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) has become a staple of molecular biology laboratories worldwide. Download this guide to learn more about designing qPCR experiments, endogenous, negative and positive controls, and ensuring good data quality.

Immunogenicity is a key consideration in the development of safe gene therapy products. In fact, certain product components can cause unintended immune responses with life-threatening implications if not addressed.

Experience the flexibility of customizable solutions and high-quality data output for molecular diagnostic testing with the Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 5 Dx Real-Time PCR system.

Hear from SpeeDx CEO, Colin Denver, on how SpeeDx meets the wide variety of challenging needs in the clinical testing market with Thermo Fisher Scientific's expert teams and qPCR innovation.

For over 150 years, wastewater has provided a rich source of data for tracking infectious diseases and informing public health decisions. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the scope for wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) has increased significantly and requires increasingly rapid, versatile and accurate detection methods to monitor the spread of disease.

Reliable testing and diagnostics on a large scale is more important than ever. Dr. Gustav Quade shares how the QuantStudio™ 7 Pro Dx instrument, Diomni™ software, and qPCR products revolutionized their testing capabilities and their impact on patients' lives.

Dr. Lauren Bates uses qPCR for pathogen identification and depends on Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Real-Time PCR systems and reagents to achieve optimal results with quick response times. Learn how Thermo Fisher Scientific empowers Dr. Lauren Bates and her team to take charge of disease identification and improve the lives of those we love.

The 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) gene is present in most bacterial species. As it contains both highly conserved and variable regions, it can be used to identify and classify different taxonomic levels.
