The largest of the buying group was Dynoptic with 100 members. The leading optical store chains were Visilab, Fielmann, McOptik and Optik 2000.

Protea Biosciences Group, Inc.,and InSphero AG jointly announced an update from their collaboration focused on mass spectrometry imaging of InSphero’s 3D InSight™ microtissues. In August 2014, Protea received microtissues from InSphero and hosted members of InSphero’s scientific team for onsite training on the handling and preparation of the microtissues. Protea has since developed workflows for processing the 3D microtissues for mass spectrometry imaging and direct analysis. In addition, Protea has generated data from 3D microtissues grown from the HCT-116 colon cancer cell line that showed the ability for mass spectrometry imaging to detect and image numerous native proteins in 3D microtissues in a single experiment, as well as putatively identify several proteins known to be present at elevated levels in colon cancer cells. Erin Seeley, PhD, Protea’s Senior Scientist for Mass Spectrometry Imaging, will present the first data from Protea and InSphero’s collaboration at
