One important step of viral, and subsequently vaccine, research is the quantification of viral DNA libraries using plate readers. The post Hey…Walkaway on the Automated Side first appeared on PerkinElmer Blog. Once a viral genome is detected, isolated, multiplied, and purified, it must be quantified and then sequenced.

The time sensitivity of virus research, combined with an increasing complexity of bench tasks, can make it helpful for labs to increase automaticity of experiments. For this reason, it might be necessary for research teams to screen many potential leads before they find one or two with strong potential. Sources Zhang et al.

And experiments at Tune Therapeutics showed that CRISPR epigenome editing — which doesn’t cut DNA at all, but merely silences genes by adding chemical groups to them — can curb “bad cholesterol” by more than 50% in monkeys. These tools do not cut or nick DNA, and so they may be safer than other options.
