We're proud to support the fantastic Phoenix School Program, which diverts #STEM equipment destined for disposal to schools in need. We've just donated quantities of more than 85 of our lab products to 5 schools! bit.ly/3AT4Uoh #scienceweek #merckanz #sustainability

Ever wondered how laxatives could transform your... transformation protocols? Matt at BioQuisitive did! On the hunt for economical alternatives to Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)4000 used in many transformation protocols… instagram.com/p/CCUmvsVjOrV/…
Bioquisitive is working with @thebiofoundry And Biobase to investigate new and cheaper diagnostic tests to identify covid19 infections. Using RT-LAMP, we're hoping to validate faster and cheaper tests! Stay tuned… instagram.com/p/B95i47ZJQda/…
We're getting ready for round 2! With one protocol investigated with the LBP we've got two more critically endangered species to try and investigate potential molecular ecology surveying techniques for, the Greater… instagram.com/p/B9hc1Kcpqwt/…
Really excited for how this tardigrade incubator is turning out! Pumps for food, water, waste and air. Closer and closer to tardigrades on tap <3 Will upload all stl, svg, py, and ino files once this is done. Goal is… instagram.com/p/B9ZKkzzpWdr/…
Any ideas of what might cause this? Is the extruder too close to the bed? #3dprinting @JAYTEEAU its
Custom tanks + DIY microscope optics based on the open flexure microscope optics module. Using a long working distance objective so we can see lil protozoa we decide to grow at a depth of 13mm. Next addition will be… instagram.com/p/B9LzpYyp3hQ/…
We did it! Incredible, after many months of lab work we managed to successfully extract and amplify leadbeater possum DNA from soil. These aren't the brightest bands,and we have a bit of optimisation to do but we got… instagram.com/p/B86Xr0vJJrf/…
Big thanks to @JAYTEEAU for our free 3d printer , first print will be the upgraded version of our #tardigrade bioreactor! #STEM #3Dprinting

Thanks to @BioQuisitive for organising and running the event and inviting @scifall to be a part of it!
2) to make sure we stay on top of cleaning our lab coats. It was a rare opportunity to get so many professionals to walk through and we also got some great tips on how to run biosafety training for future and current members. We may also see free open and...
3) accessible #biosafety training (online perhaps?). All in all, engaging the biosafety community in what we do was a highlight for us. Safety officials will still have their concerns around risk, but this type of communication is a first step in mitigating it :) #biohacking
