Product news

The new Minute™ Kits from Invent Biotechnologies utilize proprietary spin column-based technology in order to reduce the amount of time required to perform protein extractions. This reduction can be by as much as 90% compared to standard methods, such as RIPA buffer extraction, while also being easy to use. Researchers will be able to extract total protein in as little as 1-2 minutes.

With a minimum volume of only 20 microliters, Minute™ Kits allow for smaller samples to be used more efficiently than most other protein extraction kits, preventing unnecessary dilution and thereby yielding greater protein concentrations in small samples. By creating protocols that are simpler, have less overall steps, and require less liquid handling and methods, Invent Biotechnologies’ Minute™ Kits reduce opportunities for human error, thereby improving reproducibility.

Four types of Minute™ Kits are currently available: Minute™ Denaturing Total Protein Extraction Kits, Minute™ Native Total Protein Extraction Kits, Minute™ Cytoplasmic & Nuclear Extraction Kits, and Minute Bacterial Total Protein Extraction Kits.

Protein PurificationProtein purification is a vital step in drug discovery, therapeutics, biotech and life science research. The purification process typically involves subcellular or membrane protein extraction with cell lysis kits, separation of proteins from cell debris by filtration or spin columns, and the isolation of proteins of interest from other proteins and impurities with affinity purification (including fusion protein tags and antibody binding proteins A, G and L), immunoprecipitation or chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange, size exclusion and immobilized metal affinity chromatography. All purification methods come in multiple formats for your laboratory needs, including agarose or magnetic beads, resins, columns and filter plates.

The robotic, liquid handling arms can dispense from single channel to 3456 multichannel as well as operate nanoliter dispensing, enabling high throughput of samples.
