PerkinElmer, Inc., a global leader focused on improving the health and safety of people and the environment, has announced that it will showcase its innovative protein analysis solutions at PepTalk 2016: The Protein Science Week. PerkinElmer’s instrumentation helps to advance biotherapeutics research by automating small scale protein purification and protein characterization.

PerkinElmer will feature the following technologies at PepTalk:

LabChip® GXII TouchTM microfluidics technology: offers sample acquisition in less than 40 seconds for medium and high throughput applications and can analyze 96 protein samples in less than 1 hour, virtually eliminating process development bottlenecks. The LabChip Touch microfluidics platform, an alternative to tedious manual gels, provides higher throughput and better workflow efficiency.

JANUS® BioTXTM Automated Workstation: offers consistent small scale purification and sample preparation for analytical protein characterization required to support quality by design experimentation in upstream and downstream processes. The JANUS® BioTX Workstation provides column, tip and batch chromatography modes, eliminating the use of multiple instruments.

AlphaPlex® reagent technology: provides a homogeneous, all-in-one-well multiplexing reagent system that performs ultra-sensitive immunoassay analyses, while providing research professionals with more data in less time and with minimal human intervention. AlphaPlex reagents help researchers to quantify a broad range of analytes, from nucleotides to large proteins, as well as immunophenotype various cell populations.

Lance® Ultra TR-FRET assay kits: with over 60 new, easy-to-use kits for metabolic, neuro, oncology and biotherapeutic targets, these assays enable researchers performing drug discovery to achieve highly sensitive and reliable results in a short time. Using Lance Ultra’s unique combination of ULight™ Acceptor and Eu chelate donor pairs, researchers can perform a wider variety of ultrasensitive, automation friendly assays to speed and simplify the discovery process.

PerkinElmer’s poster sessions at PepTalk will include:

  • ”Improved Performance of Microfluidic CE-SDS Protein Purity Analysis through the use of Real-Time Optimization of Destain Currents”
  • ”Optimization of a High-Throughput Microfluidic Capillary Electrophoresis Assay for Analysis of Classical and Novel Biotherapeutics”

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. Find the best protein purification equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Protein QuantificationThe detection and quantification of proteins in a sample is vital across life sciences, pharmaceutical research and clinical diagnostics, and a variety of equipment is available to scientists to simplify the workflow. Proteins of interest can be easily labeled and detected on light-based detection instruments. Immunoassay kits allow you to identify a specific protein of interest and protein detection beads or antibody microarrays allow you to identify multiple specific proteins at once. Protein interactions and enzyme activity can also be monitored with protein-protein interaction assays. Additionally, the biophysical characterization of proteins is made easy with biokinetic analyzers.
