Are your TEER readings drifting, inconsistent, or slow to stabilize?
Before assuming it’s the instrument, take a closer look at your setup. In this article, we break down the most common causes of instability:
• Electrode condition and placement
• Temperature fluctuations
• Media composition and timing
• Air bubbles and handling technique
Plus, how to distinguish real biological changes from measurement noise, so you can trust your data with confidence.

Microinjection accuracy starts with mechanical repeatability. At low injection volumes, dosing accuracy often comes from the same four issues:
• Dead volume
• Air bubbles
• Plunger stick-slip
• Inconsistent injection rates
In this article, we break down what each one does to your delivered dose and how to standardize your workflow for more consistent outcomes.

🔬 Are your surgical instruments affecting your research outcomes?
In laboratory and research environments, surgical instruments are more than tools. They directly influence precision, reproducibility, and data integrity. Yet one critical factor is often overlooked: how those instruments are handled.
Improper handling can lead to loss of sterility, reduced precision, faster wear, and inconsistent experimental results, especially in microsurgery and animal research applications.
Our latest blog explores the real impact of improper instrument handling in the lab and outlines best practices to help researchers protect their tools, their data, and their investment.
