With our Booster you can: • Reactivate • Boost • Stabilize the signals of your fusion proteinsDirectly stain your protein of interest in fixed cells and benefit from the high specificity an small size that are perfect for su…

Chromobodies® - Your perfect reagents for cellular research including High-Content Analysis. Chromobodies are fluorescent nanoprobes suitable for real time analyses of endogenous cellular structures and processes in live cells. Chromobodies® are a novel species of extremely small intracellular antibodies. They are based on the antigen binding domain (VHH) derived from heavy chain antibodies of camelids genetically fused to a f…

DNA methylation was the first epigenetic modification identified and has been intensively studied for more than half a century. By now it is clear that Dnmt1, the major eukaryotic DNA methyltransferase, faithfully maintains genome-wide methylation patterns and plays an essential role in the epigenetic network controlling gene expression and genome stability during development. However, the molecular mechanisms that ultimately…

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is a homotrimeric ring-shaped protein that encircles DNA and acts as a loading platform for multiple, transiently interacting factors participating in various DNA transactions. PCNA plays a key role in DNA replication, repair, cell cycle regulation, and post-replicative transactions like DNA methylation and chromatin remodeling. All these cellular processes are regulated by a complex n…

Being able to visualize endogenous cellular structures in live cells is key for many high content analyses. The two Chromobodies® of the ChromoTek’s Cell Organelle Toolbox offer a new way to investigate key compartments of the cell non-invasively. Lamin-Chromobody® The new Lamin-Chromobody® is a major breakthrough especially in High-Content Analysis (HCA) as apoptosis assays thus far rely on static endpoint assays. The nucle…

The VisiTIRF Fluorescence Imaging System from Visitron Systems is the ideal solution for the analysis of finest structures or surfaces. The flexibility of the VisiTIRF system and the use of scientific digital CCD camera systems with optimal resolution, speed and sensitivity allows for the adaptation of customized application and configuration. For fluorescence illumination Visitron use solid state lasers or laser diodes . The…

The Water Jacket Incubator provides superior incubation stability above and below room temperature. Water is pumped from a water bath into the base plate and into the lid, which are both Water Jackets. Temperature Control Mechanism Temperature is directly measured inside a reference Petri-dish and is controlled by circulating water from a water bath into the Water Jacket Chamber. The Temeprature Controller reads the temperatur…
