Graph showing increasing cell number with time, representing cell proliferation rate, which is a critical quality attribute for cell research. A character that was recognized by 80% of 60 respondents to a recent Asymmetrex quiz (#7). This response rate was highly statistically confident with p < 0.0001. Graph image also includes images of a clock face and the mammalian cell division cycle.

Even AI gets the problem of the silence of the cells. Asymmetrex® has a human solution. Shown is the iconic Jodie Foster image from the movie Silence of the Lambs with a strange moth covering her mouth. Next to this image is a list of the Google AI responses to the query "How does stock cell culture proliferation rate impact experimental analysis?" Four categories of critical properties for quality experimental analyses were returned.
