The RunOne™ helps map the Salamander Genome
@Embitec we LOVE hearing about our customers' applications. Thousands of RunOne™ systems have been sold all over the world since its
introduction. The RunOne™ Systems are used in some of the most prestigious
basic research institutions such as NIH, Howard Hughes Medical Institutes,
the Max Planck Institute and Institute Pasteur as well as in the fundamental environment of education, such as
biotech courses for our high school science teachers. Besides being used in
basic research or teaching, some of the places and applications where the
RunOne™ system has been used are just mind blowing - imagine the RunOne™ and
the precast gels on a ship in the Pacific near Hawaii for typing billfish,
or the RunOne™ in Southern China Provence of Guangdong (nobody knows this
place until you know what - SARS) being used for HLA typing by the Chinese
Red Cross and the National Bone Marrow typing, we decided to share a new one
with you that we are sure you will find colorful:

Kevin Kump uses the RunOne Cell to help map the Salamander Genome | |
Salamanders (urodele amphibians) are important vertebrate model organisms for biomedical research on regeneration (e.g. limbs, spinal cord,
and lens), vision, neural transmission, renal function, embryogenesis, heart development, and olfaction. In addition, salamanders are
important models in natural history research, particularly in evolutionary biology, ecology, and population genetics. The utility of
salamanders will be greatly extended when fundamental genome resources are developed and made available to researchers. The goal of the Salamanger Genome Project is to provide some of these resources. The RunOne System has been an integral part of the Voss Team's research in establishing their EST's and genome
map. This web site details their progress towards accomplishing these goals.
