Successful research is important to all of us.
Use Clonetics
Melanocyte Cell Systems.
®
Clonetics ® Melanocyte Cell
Systems contain normal
human epidermal neonatal
melanocytes (shown on left)
and optimized media for
their growth. Each system
can quickly generate
melanocyte cultures for the study of pigmentation
(melanogenesis), cellular differentiation, viral-induced
transformation, antigen expression and cell adhesion.
Clonetics Melanocyte Cell Systems are convenient and
easy to use, allowing the researcher to focus on results.
Normal Human Epidermal Melanocyte Cell System
Cells are > 90% functional based on verification of
melanocyte conversion of L-dopa into dopa-melanin.
New optimized media kit for melanocyte proliferation
is superior to existing commercial media products.
Guaranteed purity of > 85% using immunofluorescent
labeling of Mel-5.
Cells, medium and reagents are quality tested together
and guaranteed to give optimum performance as a
complete “cell system”.

Three times more competent than the competition.
ElectroTen-Blue ® cells give you the highest efficiency competent cells available.
High Tr a nsform a tion Efficiency
6 x 10 10
Stratagene’s newly improved ElectroTen-Blue ® electrocompetent cells*
5 x 10 10
4 x 10 10
offer the highest available transformation efficiencies of _ 3.0 x 10 10 cfu/µg
3 x 10 10
of supercoiled pUC DNA. The high efficiency electroporation (Hee) phenotype
2 x 10 10
improves the cell’s ability to take up large and ligated plasmids. High efficiency,

Before you put our
radionucleotides to the test
We put them to the test
Radionucleotides from GE Healthcare are made to perform. Our 32 P and 33 P
nucleotides are tested in DNA-labeling experiments before shipping, so you can
be confident they’ll work in your application. But what’s more, they’re manufactured
frequently and dispensed from local sites, so you can always rely on rapid delivery
of the freshest material. For your convenience, they’re available in a variety of pack
sizes and formats, which can be customized to your specific needs. All of which
adds up to a refreshingly easy way to ensure the best results in your research.

C OVER A collage, based on botanical drawings of the 17th to 19th centuries,
illustrating the different categories of rapid plant movement: Dionea muscipula
uses a snap buckling movement to capture prey; Astromeria uses an explosive
fracture to disperse its seeds ballistically; and Pharbitis nil twirls its tendrils in
search of support through swelling. Also shown are formulas (see page 1308 ) for
the physical limits of rapid plant and fungal movements. [Image: Ellen Skotheim]
