Magne™ Protein G and Magne™ Protein A Beads are magnetic affinity beads with high specificity and high capacity for purification of immunoglobulins from cell culture media, ascites and serum samples.   These paramagnetic beads are composed of iron encapsulated in macroporous cellulose with low nonspecific binding. The magnetic beads use a novel attachment chemistry to immobilize recombinant Protein G or Protein A protein…

The MethylEdge™ System provides an efficient method to rapidly perform bisulfite conversion with minimal DNA fragmentation, giving you more intact, converted DNA for downstream applications.   Start with as little as 100pg of input DNA for those precious, limited samples. Use the MethylEdge™ System with other DNA Methylation Workflow reagents to perform sensitive DNA methylation analysis on many sample types. The rapi…

The BVC family of fluid aspiration systems is a compact and easy-to-use solution for cell culture work. With its portable design as well as the option of adding a second hand controller, the BVC makes working in the lab more convenient. Built-in features like a 0.2 µm hydrophobic filter and optional quick couplings increase safety while managing potentially harmful fluids. BVCs provide the flexibility to accommodate your decon…

If there is DNA to detect, the Plexor® HY System will show it. Total human DNA. Total male DNA. The power to see it all in a single assay.   The Plexor® HY System is a real-time PCR assay to determine the concentration of total human DNA and male human DNA simultaneously in one reaction. The kit contains an internal PCR control (IPC) to test for false-negative results that may occur in the presence of PCR inhibitors…

The GoTaq® G2 Hot Start Polymerase and Master Mixes simplify your reaction preparation, bringing you the convenience of room-temperature setup and the specificity of a hot start polymerase.   Ready-to-use Master Mix simplifies reaction setup and allows direct-to-gel loading. The optimized formulation provides amplification of a variety of targets, while eliminating non-specific products, resulting in higher yields and gr…

The AttoPhos® AP Fluorescent Substrate System provides a highly sensitive fluorescent alkaline phosphatase substrate.   The system includes AttoPhos® Substrate, AttoPhos® Buffer and Calibration Solution. AttoPhos® Substrate (2′-[2-benzothiazoyl]-6′-hydroxybenzothiazole phosphate [BBTP]) is cleaved by alkaline phosphatase to produce inorganic phosphate (Pi) and the alcohol, 2′-[2-benzothiazoyl]-6´-hydroxybenzothiazole (BB…

The TnT® Quick Systems are convenient single-tube, coupled transcription/translation reactions for eukaryotic cell-free protein expression.   These cell-free expression systems combine the RNA Polymerase, nucleotides, salts, amino acids and Recombinant RNasin® Ribonuclease Inhibitor with the reticulocyte lysate solution to form a single TnT® Quick Master Mix. The TnT® Quick Coupled Transcription/Translation System is ava…

The Kazusa ORFeome Project was initiated to create a collection of human and mouse ORFs to enable the larger research community with a readily accessible, highly validated ORFeome. Kazusa DNA Research Institute (KDRI) is an academic Japanese research institute dedicated to genome-scale studies and the function of individual genes. KDRI is an active member of the global ORFeome Collaboration, and are experts in HUGE (Human Uni…

The Single Step (KRX) Competent Cells are designed for efficient transformation and tightly controlled protein expression.   These cells consolidate the best attributes of these two steps into one strain to evaluate protein expression in E. coli. Transformation efficiencies are greater than 108 cfu/μg, similar to other highly competent cells. The single step cells are available in single transformation size (50μl). KRX a…

For standard cloning experiments competent cells are available in two formats: high efficiency at greater than 108cfu/μg for cloning (JM109, HB101), and subcloning efficiency at greater than 107cfu/μg (HB101). JM109 cells have the additional feature of blue/white screening for recombinants. For protein expression, JM109(DE3), BL21(DE3) or KRX competent cells can be used. The Single Step (KRX) Competent Cells are designed fo…
