This kit is used to prepare purified plasmid DNA in small quantities, known as “mini-preps”, using the alkaline lysis method, a commonly used method that generates highly purified plasmid DNA from E. coli, free of RNA contamination. The kit is designed for the isolation of up to 10 µg of plasmid DNA from 0.5 to 4 ml of bacterial suspension. Up to 24 samples can be processed at the same time in less than 45 minutes. The purifie…

This kit is designed to purify nucleic acids from different sample materials, including whole blood, cultured cells, and tissue samples. Bacteria and yeast require a specific prelysis treatment with lysozyme or lyticase. The resulting nucleic acids are ready for use in PCR and restriction-digestion reactions. Benefits Maximize flexibility in sample preparation. This versatile kit works well with a wide variety of sample ma…

The basic system is a counter with sample trays holding either 40 (5x8) 20 ml vials or 96 (8x12) 7ml vials. The counter has a pneumatic arm which is loading the samples to the detector chamber. The counter has a unique three PMT detector which enables Triple to Double Coinciencidence Ratio counting. This enables easy determination of sample counting effiency without any external or internal standard. The counter will have an o…

The ELISA-Light™ immunoassay system is used for ultra-sensitive detection of antigens or antibodies in multiple immunoassay formats employing an alkaline phosphatase enzyme label Heterogeneous assay format increases sensitivity and dynamic range and reduces interference by test compounds in the detection portion of the assay (as compared with homogeneous assay formats) Chemiluminescent immunoassay detection allows greate…
