today’s cyclodextrin:
I love this invention from Biomeme, Inc. for processing a target nucleic acid sequence.
The inventors – Jonathan H. & Stephen Judice – use cyclodextrin to stabilize an enzyme and nucleic acids.
CDs can also shorten a cycle threshold value or a time to result value in the nucleic acid amplification and lower a detection limit.

Fresh from the oven of the Francesco Trotta and Adrián Matencio Durán (Università degli Studi di Torino) lab, two papers on the uses of hyper-branched CD-polymer:
No 1: use as an anticoagulant, which is a very innovative application for CDs that are getting more and more spotlight
No 2: use as transfection promoters of plasmids.
I congratulate you on this ambitious research goal, loved both papers and look forward to seeing from sprouting from the collaboration you recently started with CarboHyde!
