Microbiome profiling via Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) techniques is rapidly changing the landscape of microbiology. However, to ensure accurate microbiome measurements, it is essential to ensure the microbiome workflow is unbiased and robust. For instance, it has been reported that bias in microbiomics analyses can be introduced at every step including the DNA extraction step […]

Bertin Instruments is proud to announce that FusionSight is a finalist for the Milipol Innovation Awards, in the category “Individual Equipment / First Responder Protection”. FusionSight’s world-first smart digital fusion between thermal and color visible low light sensors, undoubtedly brings operational advantages. It is closer to human vision than the thermal vision alone. Observation is […]

Precellys was just upgraded in the new SelectScience® Seal of Quality program, acknowledging the products that have consistently received the highest review ratings. This program was developed in order to further assist scientists when making important purchase decisions. These Seals are assigned to only 0.1 % of the products showcased on the SelectScience® website, and […]

Join our team booth #515 at SFN’s annual meeting, at the Walter E. Convention Center in Washington, DC on November 12th to 15th, to discover our range of laboratory equipment, including the Precellys homogenizers, and the InCellis cell imager. Don’t miss our Precellys demonstrations every day at 10AM and 2PM! Challenge the InCellis cell confluency calculation […]

Cells are used as a working tool everyday in all R&D labs and quality checks must be performed in order not to compromise downstream experiments. In cell culture applications, confluence assessment is an important parameter that is commonly used to estimate the proportion of adherent cells. Most confluency measurements are estimations of the area covered […]

Radon can dissolve and build up in water from underground sources. If water comes from a well, it may contain Radon. Radon in the water dissolves and escapes into the air during household water use, especially when it is heated. An easy-to-handle experimental setup for the on-site determination of the Radon concentration in water samples […]

Bertin Instruments is proud to announce the first official installation of the new SaphyGATE G portal monitor on October 09, 2017, for the scrap metal dealer GALLOO, in Dunkirk, France (about 15 km from the Gravelines nuclear power plant). After a first experience with an old generation portal monitor, GALLOO wanted to replace it with […]
