Nanodiamonds and Cancer

Nanodiamonds

The latest addition to the Proteintech blog investigates the use of nanoparticles as a new strategy of drug delivery. ‘Nano’ research has grown to be very popular amongst the scientific community. Up until now there have already been 84 publications regarding the use of nanodiamonds in cancer therapy and diagnosis.

Evaluation of metastatic burden and recovery of human metastatic cells from a mouse model

cell

The spread of malignant cells in the body is an important topic of ‪‎cancer‬ ‪‎research‬ as metastases are the major cause of death in cancer-related diseases. From the latest MACS&more, Lorena Landuzzi et al. describe a method that allows the recovery and quantification of human metastatic cells in a mouse model and enables enrichment of these cells for in vitro analyses.

Dr. Olaf Hardt Lecture at Molecular Med Tri-Con 2016: Tumor Cell Isolation

Watch Dr. Olaf Hardt from Miltenyi Biotec R&D Oncology team describe a novel workflow for isolating pure ‪‎tumor‬ cell populations from primary tissue during last month’s ‪TriCon2016‬ in San Francisco

The Tumor Cell Isolation Kit, human enables the enrichment of human tumor cells from primary specimens using MACS® Cell Separation technology.  While depleting tumor associated cells such as lymphocyte subpopulations, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells in a fast and easy protocol, the tumor cells remain untouched, improving any downstream analysis.  Learn more http://goo.gl/Y2gZbO
