HyClone™ serum, media buffers and process liquids have helped advance drug discovery and bioproduction processes since 1967, and continue to deliver quality and consistency. Media: Culture cells using the complete Cytiva line of HyClone classical specialty and transfection media products that support the growth of CHO SF9, HEK293, hybridoma, myeloma, insect, NSO, and vial vaccine cell lines.

Whole genome amplification

GenomiPhi™ products, powered by Phi29 polymerase technology, are available in kits that provide an easy-to-use method which delivers highly representative and reliable whole genome amplification. Each kit contains all the components necessary for whole-genome amplification by utilizing isothermal multiple strand displacement amplification, with minimal hands-on time. Compared with conventional PCR amplification techniques, MDA generates larger sized products with a lower error frequency.

Rolling circle amplification

TempliPhi™, based on Phi29 DNA polymerase, is used to exponentially amplify single- or double-stranded circular DNA by rolling circle amplification (RCA). This isothermal amplification produces microgram quantities of DNA from picograms of starting material in 4-6 h.

Whatman Puradisc syringe filter

• High performance, dependable single membrane layer filter
• Available in 11 different membrane types and seven pore sizes to work for samples of many chemical compositions and volumes

Whatman GD/X™ syringe filter

• Used for heavy, thick, or viscous hard to filter samples
