We think videos can help a lot for newcommers into the molecular biology laboratory. One of the goals of our team (iGEM Debrecen 2010) was to generate high quality videos of basic lab protocols. All the protocolls can be viewed here but you can have an intro into Cell passaging righ now if you watch [...]

Dear Colleagues, I promised you to give an update about serological pipettes. We use serological pipettes when we want to manipulate (to move) liquids that are in the range of 5 to 25 ml. Smaller volumes than 5ml can be measured with Gilson type pipettes, while for larger volumes than 25ml we use measuring cylinders. [...]

Hi, Before we make the first experiment we have to discuss about some trivialities that might be different in the lab than in the outside world. For example: water. Everyone knows what water is and I don’t want to recapitulate again the basics. You can have a real good overview here. We use water for [...]
