New @biobitsproject lab out now on protein expression and purification - essential techniques for biological research and development of protein therapeutics. Congrats to the @miniPCR team! #synbio #STEMEducation
Get your biotech 101s easily! Protein expression & purification are essential in biotech but traditionally require cell culture + chromatography columns, very $$ & hard. Our new Protein Expression and Purification Biotech Skills Lab makes it much easier! https://t.co/toDlREhm2k
