Product news

Thermo Fisher Scientific is pleased to announce a new version of its web-based ProteinCenter software which includes more than 223 million protein-protein interactions in its database and direct support for the popular Cytoscape open source platform. (Cytoscape is used to visualize complex networks in proteomics data.) This new version of ProteinCenter includes plug-ins for bioinformatics, social network analysis and the semantic web.

The new ProteinCenter software is designed to enable scientists in the proteomics field to quickly and confidently interpret complex data sets and extract meaningful biological information within minutes. Conversely, conventional bioinformatics software tools often require months of analysis. Using ProteinCenter software proteomics scientist can filter, cluster, compare and analyze single and combined datasets without overcoming the hurdles of having proteins that exist under different names and accession keys in different databases.

One of Thermo Fisher Scientific's specialists can analyze your data. Please follow the link below to contacting the company.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.Data AnalysisData analysis hardware and software is available to make data processing straight-forward yet powerful. Data software can be used for math and stats, technical graphing and image analysis. In addition, software is available for specific data analysis of electrophoresis, densitometry, ELISA and DNA sequencing.Chem / BioinformaticsCheminformatics and bioinformatics are computational techniques used in chemistry and biology, respectively, for data acquisition, processing and storage. Cheminformatics focuses on compound information, whereas bioinformatics is mainly applied to analysis and modeling of genomics, genetic and sequencing information. Hardware and software is available for data acquisition, analysis, management and storage.Protein PurificationProtein purification is a vital step in drug discovery, therapeutics, biotech and life science research. The purification process typically involves subcellular or membrane protein extraction with cell lysis kits, separation of proteins from cell debris by filtration or spin columns, and the isolation of proteins of interest from other proteins and impurities with affinity purification (including fusion protein tags and antibody binding proteins A, G and L), immunoprecipitation or chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange, size exclusion and immobilized metal affinity chromatography. All purification methods come in multiple formats for your laboratory needs, including agarose or magnetic beads, resins, columns and filter plates.
