Cell analyzer with proven reliability The BD FACSCanto™ family of benchtop analyzers features reliable performance and accurate results for experiments requiring up to 10 parameters. Numerous innovations make the system easy to use, powerful, and productive. A fixed alignment flow cell, for example, minimizes startup time and improves reproducibility. And a patented optical design maximizes signal detection and increases…

The CellTox™ Green Cytotoxicity Assay measures changes in membrane integrity that occur as a result of cell death. The assay is intended to assess cytotoxicity in cell culture after experimental manipulation. The assay system uses a proprietry asymmetric cyanine dye that is excluded from viable cells but preferentially stains the DNA from dead cells. When the dye binds DNA released from cells, its fluorescence properties are s…

The QuantiFluor® dsDNA System contains a fluorescent DNA-binding dye that enables sensitive quantitation of small amounts of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in solution.   The quantitation of dsDNA is a very important step in many biological applications, particularly in standard molecular biology techniques. The dye shows minimal binding to single stranded DNA (ssDNA) and RNA, allowing specific quantitation of dsDNA. The…

Recombinant RNasin® Ribonuclease Inhibitor reliably protects your RNA samples from RNase degradation.   RNases are ubiquitous and degradation can cause significant damage to RNA, hindering downstream reactions. Protect your sample with the most robust inhibitor available-- Recombinant RNasin® Ribonuclease Inhibitor. Recombinant RNasin Ribonuclease Inhibitor Features & Benefits:   Inhibits a broad spectrum o…

The CellTiter-Glo® 3D Cell Viability Assay is a homogeneous method to determine the number of viable cells in 3D cell culture based on quantitation of the ATP present, which is a marker for the presence of metabolically active cells.   This ready-to-use reagent is based on the original CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay chemistry and eliminates the need to combine buffer with lyophilized substrate when prepa…

FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent is a novel, nonliposomal formulation designed to transfect DNA into a wide variety of cell lines with high efficiency and low toxicity. The protocol does not require removal of serum or culture medium and does not require washing or changing of medium after introducing the reagent/DNA complex. Additionally, the FuGENE® HD Transfection Reagent has been shown to support transfection in che…

The NanoBRET™ Target Engagement (TE) Intracellular BET BRD Assay measures compound binding at select BET bromodomain target proteins within intact cells. This target engagement assay is based on the NanoBRET™ System, an energy transfer technique designed to measure molecular proximity in living cells

Single-Use Ligands for High-Resolution lmaging in Live Cells

BrandTech's first electronic repeating pipette with touchscreen operation and automatic tip ejection.

The RealTime-Glo™ MT Cell Viabiilty Assay measures viability of cells in a non-lytic, real-time live-cell format, saving time, cells and reagent costs.

The Dual-Luciferase® Reporter (DLR™) Assay System(a–f) provides an efficient means of performing two reporter assays. In the DLR™ Assay, the activities of firefly (Photinus pyralis) and Renilla (Renilla reniformis or sea pansy) luciferases are measured sequentially from a single sample. The firefly luciferase reporter is measured first by adding Luciferase Assay Reagent II (LAR II) to generate a luminescent signal lasting at l…

High-throughput quantitation of firefly (Photinus pyralis) luciferase expression in mammalian cells is commonly performed by batch processing of 96- and 384-well plates. Steady-Glo® Luciferase Assay System(a,b,c) is designed for this purpose by providing long-lived luminescence when added to cultured cells. The homogeneous assay provides signal half-lives of over 5 hours in commonly used cell culture media without prior sample…
