We describe a multi-target chromogenic whole-mount in situ hybridization (MC-WISH) procedure in intact Drosophila embryos allowing simultaneous and specific detection of three different mRNA distribution patterns by contrasting color precipitates.

We present the benzene polycarboxylic acid (BPCA) method for assessing pyrogenic carbon (PyC) in the environment. The compound-specific approach uniquely provides simultaneous information about the characteristics, quantity and isotopic composition (13C and 14C) of PyC.

Rapid Isolation of the Mitoribosome from HEK Cells
Shintaro Aibara 1, Juni Andréll 1, Vivek Singh 1, Alexey Amunts 1
1Science for Life Laboratory, Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, Stockholm University

Mitochondria have specialized ribosomes that diverged from their bacterial and cytoplasmic counterparts. Here we show how mitoribosomes can be obtained from their native compartment in HEK cells. The method involves isolation of mitochondria from suspension cells and consequent purification of mitoribosomes.

3D Printed Porous Cellulose Nanocomposite Hydrogel Scaffolds
Sahar Sultan 1, Aji P. Mathew 1
1Department of Materials and Environmental Chemistry, Stockholm University

The three critical steps of this protocol are i) developing the right composition and consistency of the cellulose hydrogel ink, ii) 3D printing of scaffolds into various pore structures with good shape fidelity and dimensions and iii) demonstration of the mechanical properties in simulated body conditions for cartilage regeneration.
