BASi Sponsors Lunch and Learn at Pittcon 2024

The electrochemistry Newsletters from BASi are specifically designed to keep our customers informed about our most recent product / software updates, new product releases and promotions, marketing events, BASi EC Team / Distributor expansions, and highly interesting publications that can be reference material to our customers in wide variety of electrochemical fields such as electrochemical sensing, electrocatalysis, polarography, fundamental electrochemistry and electrochemical synthesis.

We are pleased to welcome Dr. Ritesh N Vyas as our new Product Manager at BASi Research Solutions.

Segueing into this week’s webinar cohosted by BASi Research Products and Joanneum Research, Starlette Douglass explains fundamental differences in microdialysis and cerebral open flow microperfusion.

Learn how BASi helped Steven perform long-term recording, stimulation, and neuromodulation studies using a modified version of the Raturn in this month's Application Note.

In the latest BASi Broadcast, Starlette Douglass explains differences in microdialysis tubing and provides insight on how selecting the right tubing can impact the success of your microdialysis study.

BASi is pleased to partner with Edwin Spoelstra to represent BASi in-vivo sampling products throughout the European Union.

Microdialysis is a sampling technique used to determine tissue-specific concentrations of molecules like neurotransmitters and neuropeptides. Before moving to an in-vivo model, it is recommended that in-vitro microdialysis experiments be performed. Learn the reasons why including step-by-step instructions how to conduct in-vitro microdialysis experiment here.

Over the years, our clients have found alternatives to the standard black collar that we use to connect to the Raturn. Some use commercially available jackets or harnesses, some use vet wrap or soft tubing to soften the collar, and still others have developed their own methods. We'll be sharing some of these approaches so that you can become familiar with the variety of off-the-shelf and do-it-yourself options. This post includes the instructions and pattern used by Monash University to create a "home-made" jacket that is compatible with the Culex. 

Need sterile probes for your studies? We’re happy to help, but probes are delicate so there are some limitations. Read on to learn about the options, the pros and cons, and the recommendations from BASi to get the best out of your probes.

Lauren Elolf joined BASi as a Business Development Manager in July 2018 where she manages sales for the in-vivo product line and oversees BASi’s distributor network.  She brings over eight years of sales, marketing, and technical support of preclinical laboratory equipment including stereotaxic instruments, video tracking software, surgical supplies, and behavior apparatuses.  Lauren has considerable experience negotiating international contracts, and has successfully managed distributor accounts in Australia, Japan, Canada, and throughout Europe.

Working with catheterized animals can be challenging, but by revamping a few processes in your lab, you can improve patency rates and animal health. Here are a few tips that we’ve picked up along the way and that might help you, too.

Since reengaging with BASi in 2017, I've seen positive trends that matter for 2018. We've had four consecutive quarters with positive earnings after a rough decade with both a slowly recovering economy and ongoing restructuring of the biopharma industry. Investing in growth is a priority. It is well recognized that life science innovation is very healthy, with new initiatives taking hold in editing out genetic abnormalities and marshaling the immune system to help root out a variety of cancers. The FDA approved many new therapies in 2017 and now promises to ease the way to more.

It’s always nice to be recognized for your achievements. It’s even better when your passion and commitment are the driving forces behind your success, and any accolades are truly just a bonus. For BASi founder and scientific advisor, Pete Kissinger, a long and varied career in science and research has always been rooted in the pursuit of better bioanalytical data for better decisions and ultimately, better patient care.

As a company that’s been around for over 42 years, we’ve held a front-row seat to the unrelenting demands for innovation, and continuously strive to meet and surpass those demands as the contract research industry evolves. Keeping pace with new technologies and instrumentation is essential to our work and to the success of our clients, partners and ultimately, patients waiting for treatment.

It’s always gratifying to hear how our clients and partners are using BASi products to conduct their studies and propel their research forward. Recently, Paul Moore, Director and Professor of Biological Studies at Bowling Green State University, wrote to us about his research using the tried and true BASi EC Epsilon electrochemical analyzer.

Awesome things are happening at BASi, not the least of which is the return of our founder, Peter T. Kissinger, as a Scientific Advisor to the company. And what better way to launch our new blog, BASiBroadcast, than a Q&A session with Pete about his thoughts on the ever-evolving pharmaceutical industry and being back at BASi during this exciting time.
