JOIN AAASGet instant access to Science. Support all of the sciences.
The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is a non-profit community that is open to everyone, from
Nobel laureates to high school students. Ours is a global membership of over 120,000 people who believe in the power of
science to make the world a better place.
From the moment you join, you get immediate access to everything that AAAS’s award-winning journal Science has to
offer, including:
ß 51 weeks of home delivery of Science;
ß Instant online retrieval of every Science article ever published, from today, dating back to 1880;
ß Anytime, anywhere access via the Sciencemobile site and apps for Android, iPad, and iPhone devices;
ßMembers-only newsletters; and more.
As a member, you are also making a critical contribution to AAAS’s efforts to provide a public voice for all of science.
With public skepticism about science increasing, and public funding for research more uncertain than ever, this work has
never been more important.
AAAS is hard at work promoting science in government offices, in schools, and in the public commons all around the
world—with programs like AAAS Senior Scientists and Engineers, which brings volunteer scientists into public school
classrooms, or our sweeping petition drives calling for the preservation of federal R&D funding.
Visit promo.aaas.org/joinaaas and join today. Together we can make a difference.

Heat-Stabilization System
The Denator Stabilizor heat-stabilization
system preserves lipids at close to
in vivo levels. To preserve lipids in a
reliable manner prior to mass spec-
trometry-based analysis is pivotal to
accurately quantify and identify poten-
tial biomarkers and perform disease
research. Lipids play several key roles
in biological systems including storing
energy, cell signaling, and acting as
components of cell membranes. How-
���������������������������� ������ -
curate levels of lipids in tissue samples
due to post-sampling changes that
cause substantial variations in detected
lipid levels during sample preparation.
Denatorís Stabilizor system has been
shown to stop degradation and other
post-sampling changes immediately
and permanently. This ensures a stable
sample from the moment of excision
until the point of analysis, which in-
creases the accuracy and quality of
analytical results. By using heat stabili-
zation, scientists are able to drastically
improve the consistency of sample
quality and discover new, biologically
relevant information without needing to
use inhibitors.

Xeno-Free and Endotoxin-Free
Human Cytokines
A complete new range of commonly
used human cytokines and growth
factors is now available. Unlike most
other commercially available cytokine
products, ActiveMax cytokines are
expressed exclusively in human cells under strict animal-free and
xeno-free conditions. Therefore, they are uniquely suitable for
human cell culture and assay development. Endotoxin and other
nonhuman components can provoke an immune response in hu-
�������� �������������� �������������������������� ���������
factors for human cell culture experiments, in particular those
relevant to human cell therapy or other clinical applications. Ac-
tiveMax cytokines are exclusively produced in a serum-free, ani-
���� �������������������� ������������������������� ��
These cytokines are absolutely xeno-free, and have an endotoxin
level of less than 1.0 Ehrlich unit per microgram. The bulk produc-
tion of ActiveMax cytokines relies entirely on the human cellular
machinery provided by the HEK293 cells, and therefore retains
their authentic posttranslational processing, which translates into
high bioactivity and stability.

SFE Bio-Botanical Extraction
System
A new 10 L extraction vessel is now
available for the SFE Bio-Botanical Ex-
traction System (BBES), a multivessel
�������������������������������������� �
that rapidly fractionates and extracts large quantities of desired
components from a multitude of botanical matrices. The BBES
functions as a bulk-scale, high-pressure separator for collecting
extracted compounds. The 10 L vessel doubles current capacity
and can be acquired as an add-on to installed systems. Further-
more, a new computer-controlled automation module that allows
the SFE BBES to extract the high-quality product in less time with
even less manual intervention is expected to be available soon. The
������� ������ �����������������������������������������������
�������������������� �������������������������������������������
extractions without user intervention, thereby extending uninter-
rupted operation even further. The SFE BBES uses supercritical CO2
as its mobile phase, which has been shown to be a safer alternative
to organic solvents or hydrocarbons (butane).

Electronically submit your new product description or product literature information! Go to www.sciencemag.org/products/newproducts.dtl for more information.
Newly offered instrumentation, apparatus, and laboratory materials of interest to researchers in all disciplines in academic, industrial, and governmental organizations
are featured in this space. Emphasis is given to purpose, chief characteristics, and availability of products and materials. Endorsement by Science or AAAS of any
products or materials mentioned is not implied. Additional information may be obtained from the manufacturer or supplier.
Conical Tubes
With the introduction of the two 15 mL
and 50 mL screw cap tubes, Eppendorf
Tubes now cover the entire volume range
from 0.5 mL to 50 mL. The newly designed
screw caps provide not only optimal seal-
ing properties, but with their grooved and
multisurface side-contour, they simultane-
ously ensure a secure, slip-free grip. The
optimized handling features further facili-
tate safe opening and closing of the tubes
via convenient one-handed operation. The
Eppendorf Conical Tubes are further char-
acterized by an expanded purity grade:
they are not only sterile and pyrogen-free,
but they are also free from DNAses and
RNAses as well as human and bacterial
DNA. These features make them ideally
suited for cell biology applications in a
sterile environment, which rely on freedom
from contaminations with DNA. The highest
level of manufacturing precision and ro-
bustness ensures smooth performance of
these tubes in laboratory instruments such
as centrifuges or thermomixers.
