Abstract: Experimental data with cells often require normalization. The frequently used bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay, in fact, indicates protein content but is influenced by incubation time, pH etc. A simple, rapid and reliable alternative is desirable.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2021.795797
Abstract: Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) involves the presence of a multi-species biofilm adhered to vaginal epithelial cells, but its in-depth study has been limited due to the complexity of the bacterial community, which makes the design of… read more here.
