The Carlow lab's research and development of new field-friendly diagnostics for infectious disease is empowered by the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay. A recent collaboration shows LAMP's merits for monitoring mosquitoes for the EEE virus.

This blog will walk you through how to identify nearby programs that can introduce students to future careers in biology related fields.

Read about the difference between retroviral reverse transcriptases and group II intron-encoded transcriptases and why one is a better choice for cDNA synthesis from long transcripts.

NEB researcher Katie Bilotti Ph.D. shares how deep characterization of end joining reactions reveals that ligase choice is vital for optimizing DNA assembly reactions, and more.

This blog post gives guidelines and resources to help researchers get started with loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP).

GC-rich DNA sequences can be difficult to amplify. In this blog post, we've outlined four key considerations from NEB scientists to troubleshoot your GC-rich PCR.

Researchers are efficiently exploring immune responses with a new bulk RNA sequencing workflow that generates full-length reads of B or T cell receptor V(D)J and (C) region mRNA. The discoveries incorporating this unique view are shedding light on previously unanswerable questions surrounding immune response to infection and therapeutic intervention.

PCR optimization and validation is a longtime passion at NEB. Avoid common PCR pitfalls and obtain the amplicon you desire with these primer design tips from our experts.

COVID-19 pooled testing is an efficient way to monitor viral spread within a community, and the loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay is a major asset for community monitoring because it's inexpensive, fast, and accurate.
