Dear customers, collaborators, partners & friends!
We hope this email finds you well. BioTools has started the fall season with an exciting new product, virtual conferences and lots of great VOA papers to read!

Best wishes,
BioTools staff
"Fall in love" with a brand new product!
PROTEIN STRUCTURE:
ONE SOFTWARE FOR ALL SPECTROSCOPIC TECHNIQUES
Introducing ProtaCal
ProtaCal™ offers, for the first time, a unified approach to structure characterization of proteins! This new software allows scientists to determine structure from several spectroscopic techniques: FT-IR, RAMAN / ROA, CD (Circular Dichroism).

Same databases. Same algorithm. By using the same algorithm and databases containing the same proteins, an error is eliminated. So, now you can TRUST the results when comparing different techniques.

Want to learn more? Want your spectrum analyzed? Visit the dedicated website where you can explore the different functions and submit your spectrum to our secure server.
Cozy up with these new publications
NEW reviews on VCD & ROA on the journal covers!

We apologize if we missed your paper.
And in Other Fall News
We loved the virtual SCIX 2020 Conference! - it was great to see so many friends!

Dr. Rina Dukor gave a presentation titled "COVID-19 and other Viral Treatments: the Role of VCD Spectroscopy in Expediting the Process"

Prof. Nafie received a much deserved Honorary Membership from the Society for Applied Spectroscopy.

EAS conference - November 16-19

Dr. Yelena Pyatski will present a poster titled "The Sensitivity & Specificity of Raman and ROA Spectroscopy for Characterization of Carbohydrate Based Pharmaceuticals".

Congrats to the winner of our summer giveaway!

In August, we held a giveaway in celebration of Professor Larry Nafie's birthday. Congratulations to Dr. Darrell McCaslin of the University of Wisconsin, who won a signed copied of Larry's book "Vibrational Optical Activity: Principles and Applications"
