Atmospheric boundary level (ABL) is the lowest part of the atmosphere that is highly influenced by its contact with the surface of the planet. The diverse microorganisms found in the ABL are continuously aerosolized and dispersed from surface sources. Knowledge of microbial diversity in the ABL is crucial as it can be potentially dangerous for […]

Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is known for its anti-inflammatory effects and is commonly used to treat auto-immune and systemic inflammatory diseases. Basophils are a type of white blood cells that are responsible for inflammatory reactions during the immune response and produce inflammatory mediators such as histamine and serotonin. Recently, it has been reported that, the anti-inflammatory […]

Micro RNAs are small naturally occurring non-coding ribonucleic acids, with sizes between 18 and 40 nucleotides (nts). Found in plants, animals and viruses, they have been proven to play a significant role in RNA silencing and the regulation of gene expression. As a result, interest in smaller RNA species, such as miRNA, has increased. In […]

The composition and concentration of bioaerosols in the air is a critical parameter for the welfare of animals and humans. Monitoring bioaerosols by air sampling is one of the most efficient methods available. Nonetheless, the detection of DNA from bioaerosols can be challenging without the appropriate tools and the optimization of sampling and detection protocols. […]

Following the Chernobyl disaster in 1986, French authorities decided to equip air quality monitoring networks near nuclear power plants with a reliable and independent radioactive measurement system. In 2015, the question of replacing the air monitoring beacons arose. The Hauts-de-France Region and the Urban Community of Dunkirk wanted Atmo Hauts-de-France to take on this case. […]

Considering previous nuclear disasters in the last thirty years (Chernobyl, Fukushima), authorities had to realize that there was very low knowledge about the actual level and dispersion of radiation. Consequently after those events, many nuclear power plants and surveillance authorities had to upgrade and strengthen their measurement networks to comply with a similar catastrophe scenario. […]

Precellys solutions replace time-consuming manual grinding & preserve metabolite properties Cryogenic grinding is an efficient method for mechanic tissue disruption. Precellys transforms solid & resilient tissue samples into powder in only a few seconds, and homogenizes tissues at low temperature, preventing the chemical transformation of unstable metabolites. In this new application note, discover the best […]

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) plays a critical role regulating the homeostasis in the central nervous system and defending it against toxins or microorganisms. The endothelium forming the BBB can be modulated by different stimulus such as inflammatory mediators. In this application note, discover how you can establish an in vivo model for the assessment of […]

The advent of next-generation sequencing techniques (NGS) has revolutionized the landscape of biology, allowing scientists to deepen their understanding of many diseases such as cancer. NGS workflows generally begin with a sample preparation step, whose success is crucial to ensure reliable sequencing results. An efficient and uniform homogenization is needed to obtain an adequate quantity […]

The ALARA precautionary principle (As Low As Reasonably Possible) is the golden rule of radiation protection in the field of Risk Analysis science. This rule is applied to the exposure of individuals to radioactivity; this exposure must be low to be protected against health risks. Prolonged exposure to high-level ionizing radiation, such as radon gas, […]
