In any lab environment, especially a clinic, it’s vital that everything runs smoothly and efficiently. The best way to go about this is by preventing problems before they have the chance to appear through a strong quality assurance process. So, what is quality assurance, why is it important, and how can you make sure your

In science, there are few things more important than safety. In addition to lab coats, gloves, masks, and goggles, scientists must also consider the importance of proper chemical storage. Even the most mundane chemicals and materials need to be properly stored to avoid cross-contamination. Why Should You Store Your Chemicals Properly? There are far more

Chemical storage is an important aspect of laboratory function. Your chemical storage requirements will vary depending on what type of laboratory you are running and what types of research or experiments are being performed, but most branches of science do require chemicals of some kind in the lab. In order to have a good workflow

Life, and by the extent of the genetics that control it, is an incredibly complex matter that scientists have worked to understand for centuries. As of recently, there has been incredible progress towards reaching this understanding, and we can not only understand how genetics function, but how to alter their functions as well. This revolutionary

DNA sequencing is the process of determining the sequence of nucleotide bases in a piece of DNA. While this may sound straightforward, DNA sequencing is a complex process with many steps and chemical processes. DNA sequencing is used in various research fields and industries. It also has a wide range of uses and applications. It

There are plenty of factors that can ruin an experiment, or render a product unusable. In addition to user error, many months of research can be destroyed if the material is contaminated. Even microscopic airborne particles can destroy particularly sensitive tests, which is why many labs include extremely sanitized environments. Maintaining a sterile environment isn’t

Few places in an office are as important as a break room. Everyone needs a place to recharge and rest, and a well-designed office breakroom is a perfect way to show employees how much they are valued. Beyond their obvious purpose, break rooms are the centerpiece of an office. These spaces are the perfect place

Physical chemistry is one of the most advanced and specialized branches of chemistry. The equipment needed to perform physical chemistry analysis and experiments is equally advanced and specialized, and will not be found in a general chemistry lab. Instead, physical chemistry is a science that requires its own laboratory space that’s customized with the devices
