Fluicell (former Avalance Biotech) 365 Hugo Grauers Gata 3B Gothenburg, SE-41133 Sweden www.fluicell.com After decades with various Lab-on-a-chip solu- tions, it is time to introduce the next generation for advancing new scientific discoveries, Lab-on- a-tip™ by Fluicell (Gothenburg, Sweden). The multifunctional pipette, MFP, system allows 4 different solutions to be delivered to individual live cells, without affecting adjacent cells, with sub-second solution exchange times. At several top research labs in USA as well as in Europe, the Lab-on-a-tip™ system has been applied to vari- ous cell lines, neurons, muscle fibers, and brain slices, for the purpose of studying ion channels, enzymology, cellular energetics and membrane receptors. The MFP has also been applied to lipid bilayer printing as well as overprinting onto bio-polymers. Please visit our booth to learn more about how the MFP can assist you and your team with new discoveries within cell biol- ogy and membrane models. Garland Science 530 711 Third Avenue, 8th Floor New York, NY 10017 www.garlandscience.com Garland Science is proud to exhibit the Second Edition of Physical Biology of the Cell by Phillips, Kondev, Theriot, and Garcia, and the new Sixth Edition of Molecular Biology of the Cell by Alberts et al. Visit our booth and browse these and our other books including The Molecules of Life by Kuriyan et al, Introduction to Cell Mechanics and Mechanobiology by Jacobs et al, and the award-winning Molecular Driving Forces by Dill and Bromberg. All of our titles on display are discounted 30% off.
