AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the use of 3D bioprinters, specifically focusing on the necessary characteristics for operation without a sterile hood. Key considerations include sterilization methods, CO2 levels, and humidity concentration. One participant suggests using UV LED lights with a wavelength of 255-280nm for sterilization. Another contributor references a resource from a colleague's lab that operates without a sterile hood, emphasizing the importance of maintaining sterility in tubing and other components. The conversation highlights the need for effective sterilization techniques and environmental controls in bioprinting applications.

Hi! I'm looking for anyone that has had experience with 3d Bioprinters.
At the same time, I'm looking for the characteristics it needs to have in order to function without a sterile hood. Factors such as sterilization, CO2, and humidity concentration.
For example, for sterilization, I have considered using UV LED lights in a wavelength between 255-280nm. If you have any more inputs or comments about a 3d bioprinter, please let me know.

Thank you!

From a colleague's lab. No sterile hood, but the tubing etc. must be sterile.

Thread 'I need help understanding this quote about recent Natural Selection'

I am reading Nicholas Wade's book A Troublesome Inheritance. Please let's not make this thread a critique about the merits or demerits of the book. This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...
