RPMI 1640 Medium is a modification of McCoy’s 5A Medium designed to support lymphoblastoid cells in suspension culture. Although it was originally formulated to be used with a serum supplement, it has since been demonstrated to be capable of supporting a wide range of anchorage-dependent cells. RPMI 1640 Medium has also been extensively used in hybrid cell growth and fusion protocols. It has been shown to be suitable for the culturing of human normal and neoplastic leukocytes. This medium is based on the RPMI-1630 series of media and uses a bicarbonate buffering system with adjustments to amino acid and vitamin levels. It is also used for the growth of various cell cultures, such as fresh human lymphocytes in the 72-hour phytohemagglutinin (PHA) stimulation assay.

runDOC

Cleaver Scientific
runDOC is a portable, lightweight gel documentation system designed exclusively for use with RunVIEW – the innovative new system designed for real-time size fractionation and recovery of nucleic acids. RunDOC comprises a darkroom hood and 12.1 megapixel digital camera to capture images of nucleic acid gels stained with EtBr, SYBR and runSAFE. The RunDOC darkroom hood is placed directly over the RVMSCHOICE gel tank located on the RunVIEW base unit, which includes an integrated power supply and blue LED gel illuminator. The blue LED illuminator provides the excitation source for the DNA gel located within the tank, and following excitation the light emitted is then visualized using either one of the bluVIEW lid options (supplied with RunVIEW and used with the RVMSCHOICE gel tank) or the RunDOC filter slide. RunDOC also benefits from a small footprint area, occupying minimal space within the laboratory.
runSafe

Cleaver Scientific
RunSAFE is a non-mutagenic fluorescent reagent that produces instant visualization of DNA bands upon Blue Light or UV illumination of agarose gels. Supplied in 6X DNA Loading Buffer, CSL-runSAFE is used to prepare DNA markers and samples for loading on agarose or
polyacrylamide gels. It is the most sensitive stain available for detecting the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). It contains three tracking dyes (Bromophenol Blue, Xylene Cyanol FF, and Orange G) for visually tracking the DNA migration during the electrophoresis process. It is ideal for the environment requiring a safe , non-hazardous alternative to Ethidium Bromide. Storage Store at 4°C up to 12 months. For longer periods, store at -20°C. runSAFE Dye is light sensitive and should be stored protected from light.
runVIEW

Using RunVIEW is simple; first, cast a gel featuring two rows of wells with one matching pair of the preparatory combs supplied, before transferring the blue-light transparent gel tray to the MSCHOICE tank located on the base unit. Add sufficient buffer just to cover the gel, and remove the combs to load the DNA samples into the upper row of wells (loading tier). Replace the lid to connect the MSCHOICE tank to the integrated power supply before applying the voltage and switching on the blue LED gel illuminator. Watch through the bluVIEW lid viewing pane as the samples migrate in real-time to the second row of wells (extraction tier). Once the DNA bands of interest enter the tier, simply stop the power supply, remove the lid and harvest the DNA by pipette.

Thermo ScientificTM OxoidTM
Isolate and identify Salmonella and Shigella species from clinical or food samples with Thermo Scientific™ Oxoid™ SS Agar (Dehydrated). Differentiation of Salmonella and Shigella is achieved by incorporation of lactose in the medium. Organisms which ferment lactose produce acid which, in the presence of the neutral red indicator, results in the formation of red colonies. Salmonella, Shigella, and other non-lactose-fermenting organisms appear as transparent or straw coloured colonies on SS Agar.

Precautions
Some of the pathogenic fungi may produce infective spores which are are easily dispersed into the laboratory. Such organisms should be examined only within a protective cabinet.
The combination of cycloheximide and chloramphenicol inhibits many pathogenic fungi. However, the mycelial phase of Histoplasma capsulatum, Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, Sporothrix schoenckii and Blastomyces dermatitidis is not inhibited by these antibiotics when incubated at 25-30°C .
Note the precautions in handling cycloheximide described in HAZARDS section.
