Lab Essentials: Spatial Biology | eBook
Authors: BioTechniques | Last updated: June, 2025
Overview
Spatial biology offers unprecedented insights into the complex organization of cells and tissues within their native environments. By preserving and analyzing the spatial context of biological molecules, this field illuminates how cellular location and interactions influence function, development and disease progression.
In this eBook, we explore spatial biology techniques, from spatial transcriptomics to proteomics. It includes expert interviews, review articles, and practical examples that show how researchers use these methods in the lab. The eBook also highlights how precise lab tools, such as Sartorius’ Cubis® II balances, support accurate weighing for sensitive experiments. It addresses common issues like static electricity and magnetism that can affect measurements and offers ways to manage them.
