Cultivation of cells outside their natural habitat in a laboratory with controlled conditions is indispensable for scientific research. In particular, 3D cultures reflect in vivo conditions in cell morphology, interaction and tissue-specific architecture and are therefore relatively close to native tissue.

Life science researchers worldwide rely on Nucleofector Technology for transfecting hard-to-transfect cell lines and primary cells. Fast, consistent and reliable transfection results, Optimized Protocols for more than 750 cell types and excellent scientific support so you can focus on ground-breaking research.

Szabo-Scandic has been supporting various social projects for many years. In this difficult time, we as employees also want to make a contribution to Ukraine.

Ever since the discovery of theenzyme-linkedimmunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 1971, little has changed in the procedure. Only with the research of the two variants: Sandwich-ELISA and competitive ELISA, some development started. The QuicKey Pro ELISA Kits have been created.

A total of 83 drugs for human consumption and 10 for veterinarian use were approved for sale in the EU market in 2021. In the previous year, 2020, 90 human and 19 veterinarian drugs were approved. This displays a decline of 15%. Admittedly, 2020 was an exceptional year with a great number of approvals.

Are you already using external SARS-CoV-2 controls to verify your RT PCR assays? SZABO-SCANDIC offers now two reliable controls manufactured by the company Microbix. The REDx™ FLOQ® SARS-CoV-2 Swab Positive Control and the REDx™ SARS-CoV-2 Positive Control (Vial) are available for you.

Traditionally, Corning’s cloud-based automated cell counter has focused on rapidly capturing the detailed-analysis of 2D cell cultures. The addition of the organoid counting application expands our cell counting capabilities into the vastly developing 3D space. If you are interested we will gladly give you a demo.

Primary cells are cells directly isolated from human or animal healthy tissues and that reflect the biological diversity of the different body districts and donors they are isolated from. Lonza offers a large variety of human and animal cells, both fresh and cryopreserved, from almost all tissues, and can give a broad range of information on the donors cells. Our Bullet Kit Media simplify the shift from cell lines to primary cells.

Many are probably aware that lectins are complex proteins, or glycoproteins. However, lectins are also appealing for research due to their ability to recognize and bind specific carbohydrates. If this property is taken advantage of, a previously unimaginable number of possibilities could be discovered. Especially since lectins are even more accurate as markers than antibodies alone.

We are pleased to announce that we are adding a new manufacturer to our range: Cayman Chemical. For more than 40 years, Cayman Chemical is manufacturing and supplying biochemicals, assay kits, antibodies and proteins to scientists all over the world. They offer a wide range of research products, covering important areas like cancer, oxidative stress, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation or metabolism.
