The MagneHis™ Protein Purification System provides a simple, rapid and reliable method for the purification of polyhistidine- or HQ-tagged, expressed proteins.   Paramagnetic precharged nickel particles (MagneHis™ Ni-Particles) are used to isolate polyhistidine- or HQ-tagged protein directly from a crude cell lysate using either a manual (requires use of a magnetic stand) or automated procedure. Using a tube format,…

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…

Promega has partnered with ATCC to offer unparalleled STR testing service for human cell line authentication.   This service provides easy access to proven and comprehensive validation techniques. Promega's proprietary PowerPlex® and GenePrint® STR technology coupled with ATCC's considerable experience profiling human cell lines and extensive internal assets around STR profiling data interpretation is particularly r…

QuantiFluor® ONE system maximizes sensitivity and efficiency for dsDNA quantitation.   The QuantiFluor® ONE dsDNA System contains a fluorescent double-stranded DNA-binding dye (504nmEx/531nmEm) developed for use in an “add-and-read” format for dye and standard, making sample quantitation easy. This system enables sensitive quantitation of small amounts of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). The QuantiFluor® ONE dsDNA Sy…

The Maxwell® Clinical Sample Concentrator (CSC) automated nucleic acid extraction system is designed for clinical laboratories needing to process multiple samples for critical downstream assays. This easy-to-use, cGMP-compliant system provides consistent, high-quality results with every run, allowing you to manage your workflow and gain efficiency. The purification methods use sample lysis and binding to paramagnetic par…

The QuantiFluor® ONE dsDNA Dye is a fluorescent double-stranded DNA-binding dye (504nmEx/531nmEm) prepared for an “add-and-read” format making sample quantitation easy. This dye enables sensitive quantitation of small amounts of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA).   The QuantiFluor® ONE dsDNA Dye is intended for use as a general purpose reagent in the US and is suitable for use by clinical laboratories as a component of la…
