In order to gain insights into the dynamics of mast cell subpopulations in normal and diseased skin, a novel enzyme-histochemical double and triple staining method was employed that allowed the detection of metachromasia (toluidine blue) and the mast cell proteases

There is no specific assay for rat plasma esterase-1 (ES-1) activity. Plasma contains many esterases, while known substrates do not discriminate between esterases. With gel electrophoresis, plasma esterase isozymes can be separated. Thus, a method consisting of gradient polyacrylamide gel

We are reporting what we believe to be a safe, rapid TLC system and spray for the identification of marihuana. The use of Fast Blue 2B salt greatly enhances the specificity of the TLC analysis of suspected marihuana samples.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
