Major Review Article on the Use of Microwave Energy in Bioscience Applications Published.MATTHEWS, N.C. -- CEM CEMcontagious equine metritis. CEM selective medium chocolate agar made with Eugon agar and 5% horse blood; used to cultivate Taylorella equigenitalis. Corporation, a leading provider of microwave laboratory instrumentation, is pleased to announce the publication of a major review article on the use of microwave energy in bioscience applications. It discusses the interaction of proteins and other biomolecules This page aims to list articles on Wikipedia that describe particular biomolecules or types of biomolecules. This list is not necessarily complete or up to date - if you see an article that should be here but isn't (or one that shouldn't be here but is), please update the page with microwaves and develops a theoretical basis for the unique effects that microwave energy has on biomolecules, such as increased reaction speed and efficiencies. The article, entitled Microwave energy: a versatile tool for biosciences, was published in issue 8 of Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry and was written by Jonathan Collins, a Developmental Biochemist with CEM Corporation, and Nicholas Leadbeater, PhD, an Assistant Professor at the University of Connecticut The University of Connecticut is the State of Connecticut's land-grant university. It was founded in 1881 and serves more than 27,000 students on its six campuses, including more than 9,000 graduate students in multiple programs. UConn's main campus is in Storrs, Connecticut. . Though scientists have only started using microwaves in bioscience over the last several years, the Years, The the seven decades of Eleanor Pargiter’s life. [Br. Lit.: Benét, 1109] See : Time possibilities for the technology have become readily apparent. It is currently being used for peptide synthesis, enzymatic digestion, carbohydrate chemistry, and protein hydrolysis hydrolysis (hīdrŏl`ĭsĭs), chemical reaction of a compound with water, usually resulting in the formation of one or more new compounds. , and it has great potential in DNA amplification DNA amplification Molecular diagnostics Any method used to ↑ the copy number of a sequence of DNA. See Cycling probe technology, Gap LCR–gap ligase chain reaction, Gene amplification, NASBA–nucleic acid sequence-based amplification, PCR, . "This article represents a significant step toward understanding the unique effect that microwave energy has on biomolecules," said Jonathan Collins, leader of CEM's Bioscience Division. "We hope that our novel theory on the interaction of microwaves with biomolecules will shed some light on the vast potential of the technology and help stimulate discussion and further research in its uses in bioscience."
