The history of BioProbes Journal of Cell Biology Applications

When Richard Haugland, co-founder of Molecular Probes, pulled the first issue of BioProbes Journal from his typewriter in 1979, he already envisioned the path that the company—and by extension, BioProbes—would take. As Molecular Probes grew from a garage-based business to eventually become an integral part of the Thermo Fisher Scientific Invitrogen brand, BioProbes evolved from black-and-white mimeographed sheets describing a handful of products to a full-color magazine (published both in print and online) brimming with more than 75 new products and their applications. The last issue was published in April, 2020 but our customers still find the content useful so we decided to create this archive of the articles.
