    sea-snail-antibodies-gentaur-kneePictured in the foreground is the snail. In the background is the child from whence the snail emerged.

    The child's name is Paul Franklin. A few weeks back Paul was visiting the beach with his family when he tripped and dashed his right knee against a rock. His parents cleaned and bandaged the injury. A week later Paul fell again while iceskating, and again his parents dressed the wound. A day later the knee had swollen and Paul had developed a limp. He was hurried to a nearby hospital, where doctors prescribed him a course of antibiotics.

    What happened next is recounted in greater details at The Orange County Register, but here's the play-by-play summary:

    • After a couple days, the would looked like it was getting better. But then it got way, way worse. The wound looked necrotic, and was badly swollen. Doctors advised Paul's parents not to drain the wound by squeezing it. When the wound started looking even nastier than it does at right in the side-by-side, Paul's mom said to hell with doctor's orders and squeezed away. Boom. Out pops a snail.

    At first she thought it was a rock. But nope. It was a snail. A live snail that had been wriggling around in her son's knee since... well... the leading theory is that when Paul smacked his knee against a seaside rock, an egg must have been jammed into the flesh and just kind of... incubated. Nobody's really sure how or if that's possible, but according to the OC Register, Paul's mom is now "trying to find a marine biologist" who can tell her as much.

    DiaEasy Dialyzer Tubes

    A.   Problem

    While working with proteins and nucleic acids, it is very often necessary to eliminate small molecular weight substances such as reducing agents [dithiothreitol (DTT), 2-mercaptoethanol (BME), urea], un-reacted crosslinking or labeling reagents (sulfo-SMCC, biotin) and preservatives (sodium azide, thimerosal) that might interfere in subsequent steps of the experimental protocol. Methods such as dialysis and electro-elution (for extraction of nucleic acids from gels) have long been used to purify proteins and nucleic acids. However, these traditional methods are riddled with numerous problems which may lead to tremendous time consumption, sample loss, contamination and high sample dilutions requiring further concentration.

    dialyzer dialysis tubes gentaur antibodies

    B.   Solution

    DiaEasy™ Dialyzer tubes product line offers a solution to most of these issues. Our Dialysis tubes come in easy to use sets of 10, 25 and 100 tubes each, catering to different molecular weight cut-offs of 1 kDa, 3.5 kDa, 6-8 kDa, 12-14 kDa, 25 kDa and 50 kDa for different sample volumes ranging from 10 µl to 20 ml.  These sets also contain floating racks and/or supporting trays for convenient handling of the tubes in the exchange buffer and electroelution. The combination of DiaEasy™ Dialyzer tubes and the electroelution accessories provides a unique tool for extraction of any protein, protein-protein, or protein DNA complexes from non-denaturing and denaturing (SDS) polyacrylamide gels, and for extraction of oligonucleotides, RNA, and DNA from both polyacrylamide and agarose gels. The DiaEasy™ tube’s membranes are ultra-clean, sulfur and heavy metal free and EDTA treated which makes the harvested proteins and nucleic acids suitable for molecular biology experiments. These DiaEasy™ tubes allow rapid, secure and simple loading and recovery. They are very high performance dialysis tubes and are the most convenient, user friendly dialysis system on the market. We offer these tubes with related accessories like supporting trays and floating racks for easy use.

    C.   Applications of DiaEasy™ Dialyzer tubes

    • •      Dialysis or buffer exchange of six different samples volumes: 10-250 µl, 50-800 µl, 0.1-3 ml, 10 ml, 15 ml and 20 ml.
    • •      High throughput dialysis (using a single beaker with several DiaEasy™ tubes on one floating pad).
    • •      Preparation of protein samples for MALDI-MS.
    • •      Samples concentration.
    • •      Large-scale protein dialysis such as antibodies and recombinant protein purification.
    • •      Peptide dialysis as small as 10 amino acids.
    • •      Virus-particle purification.
    • •      Removal of contaminating micro molecules.
    • •      Tissue culture extracts purification.
    • •      Removal of salts, surfactants, solvents & detergents.
    • •      Complex formation studies (protein-protein, protein-DNA and protein-RNA).
    • •      pH and buffer adjustment of sample solution, protein extract or cell extract.
    • •      2D gel dots extraction.
    • •      Extraction of proteins, RNA, DNA or oligonucleotides (>20 nt) from polyacrylamide, agarose or any gel matrix in any running buffer.  

     

    D.   Advantages of DiaEasy™ Dialyzer tubes

    • •       Most convenient, efficient and user-friendly dialysis sets on the market.
    • •       Single step efficient dialysis saves time and eliminates the need for additional equipment.
    • •       Samples pass through the tubes once, eliminating repeated dilutions and concentrations.
    • •       Single step decreases the risk of potential protein aggregation and precipitation and ensures high activity retention.
    • •       Elution times are as low as 10 minutes and range upto 150 minutes based on multiple criteria including the sample content, size and volume.
    • •       These sets are HTP compatible.

    rice diarrhea gentaur antibodiesGenetically modified rice could help protect children and the immuno-compromised from diarrheal disease, according to a study published last week (August 8) in The Journal of Clinical Investigation. More than 600,000 children die of rotavirus infections each year, and researchers say the rice could eventually supplement currently available vaccines and other treatments to reduce the rates of rotavirus-related death.

    To produce their virus-fighting rice, the researchers inserted genes from llamas in order to get the plants to produce a key section of a rotavirus-targeting antibody, MucoRice-ARP1. This antibody fragment survives digestion, making oral administration possible.

    The researchers tested the product in mice, giving them water mixed with rice powder before inoculating the animals with rotavirus. The mice that had received the genetically modified rice water had less diarrhea and a lower viral load than those not given the treatment.

    There are already two vaccines available for rotavirus, but they have relatively low efficacy, possibly because they do not work well in immuno-compromised individuals. The researchers suggest that their GM rice could supplement the vaccines, providing protection for the immuno-compromised and infants who are at particularly high risk of diarrheal disease.

    But Mathuram Santosham, who studies rotaviruses at Johns Hopkins University, told that “substantially more research is needed to understand the potential impact of this intervention in humans.” She added that, “in the meantime, it is important to remember that we have highly effective tools, which are available now, including rotavirus vaccines, oral rehydration solution, and zinc supplementation.”
