Principles of Continuous Flow Centrifugation
This application note provides a comprehensive guide to continuous flow centrifugation, describing what equipment might be needed to perform this technique as well as tips and FAQs. Continuous flow centrifugation is a method that can be employed to drastically decrease operational times for sample processing particularly if the sample size is large, sedimentation rate is low or the acceleration/deceleration rate is slow.
Analysis of Nanotoxicity: Particle Characterization & Centrifugation
This application note provides insight into the inherent shortcomings that are present in traditional cellular toxicity assays, and how these shortcomings are magnified when the toxicity assay involves nanomaterial. Nanomedicine is a field common to materials scientists, chemists, biomedical engineers, biologists and medical scientists. Beckman Coulter tools enable quantification of cellular toxicity caused by nanoparticles; reducing time to remove aggregated particles and quantifying cell toxicity in the presence of single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Stability of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Reverse Transcriptase Heterodimer
This application note describes the characterization of a heteroassociating system. The thermodissociation is studied using band sedimentation analysis, whilst the electrostatic dissociation is studied using boundary sedimentation analysis. Analytical ultracentrifugation represents a powerful methodology for expressing HIV-1 viral components. In conjunction with appropriate data analysis methodologies, analytical ultracentrifugation can be used to examine sample purity, detect and characterize conformational changes, determine subunit stoichiometries, characterize assembly and disassembly mechanisms of macromolecular complexes, and measure equilibrium constants and thermodynamic parameters of associating systems.
A Standardized, Automated Approach for Exosome Isolation and Characterization Using Beckman Coulter Instrumentation
This application note describes a workflow using automated Biomek methods for centrifugation layering and fractionation, total RNA extraction, and cDNA amplification and clean-up for next generation sequencing. NGS results are reported on benign and cancerous colon cell lines.
Exosome-Depleted FBS Using Beckman Coulter Centrifugation
This application note discusses methods of exosome isolation from cell cultures with a centrifugation protocol example. Also, it explains the process for “home-brewing” exosome-depleted FBS by ultracentrifugation and compare the cell viability and media depletion percentage from two separate cell lines after treatment with different media types.
