Eppendorf Launches the First Segmented PCR Plate
 25 Jun 2010: This new two-component PCR plate from Eppendorf AG is designed to be easily divisible, saving material and money when running smaller-scale experiments. The twin.tec unskirted 96-well plates fit almost all available PCR instruments and can be snapped into four separate 24-well segments and the empty wells saved for future use.

Application Note 63 - Analysis of Rat G Protein-Coupled Receptors Pathways on a Low-Density Microarray
06 Feb 2009: In the present study, Eppendorf DualChip® rat GPCR was used to demonstrate its potential in the determination of brain heterogeneity. A comparison of the GPCR expression profiles between two distinct regions of the brain is presented: the striatum and the cortex. It was demonstrated that from the 60 genes accessible on the DualChip rat GPCR, 25 genes (36.7%) displayed statistically significant different expression levels and 43 (63.3%) remained stable between the two brain tissues.

Use of Cy™ labeled cDNA in microarray analyses after determination of the incorporation rate with the Eppendorf BioPhotometer plus and UVettes®
29 Sep 2008: The system of BioPhotometer plus and UVette is optimally suited for reproducible quality control of fluorescence-labeled cDNA probes. Photometric measurements of fluorescence-labeled cDNA samples were easily performed using the BioPhotometer plus and the Eppendorf UVette. This report shows that all absorption readings for the chosen 10 mm light path were well within the reproducible range for such measurements (> 50 mE).

Silverquant® microarray detection and scanning system
06 May 2008: Silverquant® is a colorimetric detection method adapted to microarray analysis and an alternative to fluorescent labeling. It is a universal method that can be used for nucleic acids as well as for proteins. This application note describes the chemical and physical principles of the Silverquant colorimetric detection system and compares its technical performance with fluorescent-dye detection methods.

Optimizing electroporation parameters for effective gene silencing in Jurkat cells
18 Apr 2007: The efficient transfer of siRNA into cells is a prerequisite for a successful gene silencing approach. This application note demonstrates how after determining the required electrical parameters (voltage and pulse length) and finding the appropriate amount of siRNA, the knockdown of Cdc2 gene expression in Jurkat cells could be shown.
