Biomatrica/Qiagen QIAsafe DNA blood products
20 November, 2009 byBiomatrica and Qiagen have launched QIAsafe DNA Blood Products, the first dry blood storage available on a matrix based on Biomatrica’s SampleMatrix technology.
Plug-in detection cartridges
30 September, 2009 byBeckman Coulter has introduced four detection cartridges for its modular plate reader, the Paradigm Detection Platform, that add new capabilities for widely used fluorescence and luminescence applications.
Ion analysis by capillary electrophoresis kits
09 June, 2009 byBeckman Coulter has introduced two kits for anion and cation analysis on the company’s P/ACE MDQ System. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) analysis of ions performed using these kits delivers efficient, rapid separations with small sample requirements and short preparation times. The kits incorporate a dynamic coating technology that claims to produce more consistent migration times than other approaches.
Protein carbonyl assay kit
05 June, 2009 byCayman Chemical’s Protein Carbonyl Assay Kit is a colorimetric assay for the measurement of oxidised proteins. Protein samples are derivatised by making use of the reaction between 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) and protein carbonyls.
Microbial identification
05 June, 2009 byThe RapID range of microbial identification systems is easy to use and allows the accurate identification of a comprehensive range of microorganisms in 4 hours.
Immunoassays
08 April, 2009 byNovagen has introduced multiplex immunoassays for the bead-based Luminex xMAP Technology platform. The range of immuno-assays allows the multiplex quantification of phosphorylated proteins, giving researchers the opportunity to examine changes in cellular signalling that reflect disease states or various drug treatments.
Acute phase assays
08 April, 2009 byBio-Plex Pro human acute phase assays can deliver accurate and reproducible measurements of nine commonly studied acute phase markers: a-2-Macroglobulin, CRP, ferritin, fibrinogen, haptoglobin, procalcitonin, SAA, serum amyloid P (SAP) and tissue plasminogen activator. A snapshot of panel performance is demonstrated by representative parallelism and linearity of sample dilution in normal human serum and plasma.
miRNA profiling kit
08 April, 2009 byAgilent Technologies has released a labelling and hybridisation kit that simplifies the protocol for running miRNA-profiling experiments on oligonucleotide microarrays.
Mutagenicity assay kits
08 April, 2009 byThe Ames II, Ames MPF 98/100, Ames MPF 1535 and Ames MPF 1537 kits can be used to perform the Ames test in the liquid 384-well microplate format with a colorimetric read-out.
Human isotyping assay
08 April, 2009 byThe Bio-Plex Pro human isotyping panel allows detection of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA, IgE and IgM, in a single multiplex assay.
Reagent platforms
08 April, 2009 byThe bead-based technology of the AlphaScreen and AlphaLISA reagent platforms makes them suitable for measuring even large and complex molecules.
HER2 assay kit
06 April, 2009 byThe FDA-approved Thermo Scientific Spot-Light HER2 CISH Kit is designed to allow users to perform an HER2 assay analogous to routine immunohistochemistry (IHC) that provides reliable gene status information and improves on the results obtained by fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH).
Aflatoxin test kits
06 April, 2009 byGraintec supplies rapid aflatoxin test kits for pet food and food manufacturers.
GFP-certified apoptosis/necrosis detection system
11 March, 2009This GFP-certified apoptosis/necrosis detection system includes all the necessary reagents for determination of early and late stages of apoptosis as well as necrosis.
