I am currently a technical support representative for [http://www.scbt.com/ Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc] where my primary role is communication with researchers in California Institutions who are coordinating chemical, immunoglobulin, & RNAi experiments with SCBT reagents.
Bench research leads to advancements in knowledge & health. Confidence in reagent quality & protocol is essential for success in molecular & cell biology. There is ongoing need to facilitate scientists in creating successful R&D efforts in every phase, through communication on reagent quality & procedure optimization.


Researcher time/labor at the bench is important in literally every way. There has to be a high degree of confidence in both the reagent quality, and the procedure. The means to obtain and test quality reagents is beneficial to both the vendor and customer. Let me know what SCBT reagents you have interest in working with and I will do my 100% best to ensure you obtain reagents that produce results.
Hundreds of variables within molecular/cell protocols determine reliable data. Apparent & straight-forward experiments (ie immuno (western) blotting) contain many important stages for consideration. Presenting below, a valuable collection of resources, that will improve awareness & success.


There are several variables for each molecular/cell protocol; apparently straight-forward procedures (ie immunoblotting) contain an extraordinary amount of important steps. Below are resources for research antibody and RNAi studies, that can improve your next experiment, and expand your knowledge. I hope that you may find something useful to bring you success in your next experiment.

Bench research leads to advancements in knowledge & health. Confidence in reagent quality & protocol is essential for success in molecular & cell biology. There is ongoing need to facilitate scientists in creating successful R&D efforts in every phase, through communication on reagent quality & procedure optimization.

Hundreds of variables within molecular/cell protocols determine reliable data. Apparent & straight-forward experiments (ie immuno (western) blotting) contain many important stages for consideration. Presenting below, a valuable collection of resources, that will improve awareness & success.
