Quantitative measure of oxidative stress
Tuesday, 16 September, 2008
Millipore announces the launch of its OxyELISA Oxidized Protein Quantitation kit, providing all reagents necessary for quantitative, high throughput detection of modified proteins in cells undergoing oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is a cellular condition particularly relevant to aging and age-related diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, and dementia. This kit provides a fast and sensitive assay for oxidation, can help researchers, especially neuroscientists, to understand the mechanism of cellular aging.
