Nature

Towering coral, vibrant with color, and teeming with life is a common image when thinking of coral reefs. Scores of fish, sharks, sea turtles, and other exotic creatures form part of these richly diverse underwater gems of nature. But, did you know that reef ecosystems such as the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) would not exist without an intricate symbiosis that evolved between corals and single-celled algae, too small to be visible with the human eye?

The oceans cover about 70% of our planet’s surface and are full of living organisms. However, the seas represent a relatively undiscovered realm. Only five percent of marine ecosystems and less than one percent of the deep oceans have been properly explored. Scientists estimate that billions of marine microbes have yet to be identified. These could potentially provide promising constituents for ground-breaking new medicines, innovative materials and for complex, unfamiliar biochemical structures.

What if we could absorb superpowers from bacteria?

Is “bio” the magic formula? Biofuels appear to be a sustainable solution for ensuring energy supplies. However, despite numerous benefits, their increasing use also raises critical questions.

Thawing cells is a daily business in cell culture and microbiology labs. Usually a water bath is used for this task but it makes sense to think about new method and cleaner options. A clean way to thaw cell lines and bottled medium is to use a thermal block on a thermal mixer. We compared both methods and show the advantages of rethinking your cell thawing.

Who isn’t aware that acetone, ethanol, and other volatile liquids start to drip out of the pipette tip directly after aspiration? Probably, every one of us has experienced this. Are you wondering if this issue can be solved with pipetting “hacks” like “working as fast as possible” while “placing the tubes very close to each other to avoid chemical loss and spillage”? The answer is: probably not! Even when pipetting volatile liquids faster, you’re still likely to lose accuracy and precision. Yet all is not lost – by just adding some small changes in your pipetting techniques, and the right choice of pipette type can help you overcome these daily challenges!
