Enabling biology

By means of the Coulter channelizer 256 module an optional extra on the model ZM but built-in on the multisizer, enables biological cell-size distributions to be measured. This provides an ability to measure suspension... 

Another important point from the HePTP case study illustrates epistemic challenges and their resolution with the use of small-molecule chemical probes. Although reversible oxidation of the phosphatase active site cysteines was hypothesized as one of the cellular pathways regulating protein phosphatase activity prior to our studies [40, 41], this mechanism was not experimentally demonstrated for HePTP. Identified small-molecule hits not only enabled biologically relevant inhibition of HePTP but also pointed... 

Along with the development of these enabling biological methods, catalysis and other technologies (such as computer modeling and expert systems), which already have a major influence on the chemicals industries, have also made major technical advances. The integration of biotechnology with these more traditional areas represents a means to capture the technical advances across a number of chemicaIs-related disciplines.

In addition to ensuring compostability, certification enables biologically degradable products to be identified by way of clear labelling. The compostability mark (Eig. 1.3) serves to inform both waste consumers and disposers and the product must bear the inscription compostable as well as the registration number assigned to it during the certification process.
