Many of the rants are triggered, at least in part, by a wide-spread misunderstanding of what GenBank is and how it works. Perhaps this can be solved through education, but I don’t think that’s likely. People from the NCBI can explain over and over again that some of the sequence [...] [...] officialtechnews.com wrote an interesting post today onHere’s a quick excerptDiscovering Biology in a Digital World : Biologists vs. the Age of Information Jun 30th, 2008 by Axel It’s pretty common these days to pick up an issue of Science or Nature and see people ranting about GenBank (1).

]]> Comment on Health Blog : Wine Pill Makes Progress by James Harding http://biotec.molecularpharming.org/2008/06/26/health-blog-wine-pill-makes-progress/#comment-632 James Harding Fri, 27 Jun 2008 13:47:45 +0000 http://biotec.molecularpharming.org/2008/06/26/health-blog-wine-pill-makes-progress/#comment-632 Since the Dr. Sinclair study was published in Nature a flood of dubious companies have sprung up selling resveratrol. One even makes his capsules in a rented house in Florida. Consumer Lab, an independent testing authority, evaluated the major brands and found many lacking in content and quality. The ones that passed their evaluation were Biotivia, Transmax and Bioforte. A product by Life Extension Co. failed badly with only 26% of the claimed resveratrol. Another brand, Revatrol, had virtually no trans-resveratrol in its supplement. The ConsumerLab test results are available on their web site.
