Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.

  • High-Throughput Fluorescence Imaging and Analysis of Spheroids

    Introduction As cells do not grow in isolation, traditional two-dimensional (2D) cell culture monolayer models lack physiologically relevant environmental conditions and can have drastic differences in terms of their physical and biochemical features, compared to intact biological systems. Since more physiologically relevant animal studies are time consuming and expensive, there is a need for experimental models that span the gap between in vitro cell-based assays and in vivo animal studies.

  • Simplified workflow for Instant ELISA kits using the Multiskan Sky Microplate Spectrophotometer and Wellwash Versa Microplate Washer

    This application note demonstrates the benefits of using the Invitrogen™ Human TNFα Instant ELISA™ Kit with the Thermo Scientific™ Multiskan™ Sky Microplate Spectrophotomer and Wellwash™ Versa™ Microplate Washer. In addition, we show how to streamline the workflow by incorporating a preprogrammed pipetting protocol developed with the My Pipette™ Creator app and a Thermo Scientific™ E1-ClipTip™ Bluetooth™ electronic pipette.

  • Quantitative Analysis of 57 Fragrance Allergens in Cosmetics Using Twin Line MS System

    Under the European Cosmetics Directive (EC 1223/2009)1), 24 of the fragrances used in cosmetics are regulated as fragrance
    allergens. If a leave-on product contains more than 0.001 % or a rinse-off product contains more than 0.01 %, it must be labeled on the product. Recently, however, following an opinion by the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS), the number of regulated compounds has been scheduled to be expanded to more than 80. Therefore, manufacturers of cosmetics need to know exactly what fragrance compounds are contained in finished products orraw materials.

  • Plaque Assay

    A cell monolayer is treated with a dilution of a GFP-expressing virus. The cells are then coated with agar, which limits the virus spread to only neighboring cells.After incubation, GFP+ circles of infected cellsare counted for virus titration.

  • Quantitation of monoclonal antibody infliximab in human plasma by LC-MS/MS using Fab-selective limited proteolysis nSMOL technology

    Infliximab, known commercially as Remicade, is a chimeric IgG1 kappa monoclonal antibody (mAb) that targets tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF).
    In studies conducted, a significant number of patients (30-40%) who did not respond to anti-TNF treatment were identified.
