Product news

The SensiQ Pioneer, a fully automated surface plasmon resonance system for affinity and kinetics characterization of biomolecular interaction, will be featured by ICx Technologies at the upcoming Protein Society meeting in San Diego July 20-22, 2007 and the 13th World Congress on Drug Discovery and Development of Innovative Therapeutics in Boston August 4-7, 2008.

The Pioneer has been developed specifically for providing highly accurate and precise kinetic data in a cost-effective platform. Applications such as antibody characterization and screening, small molecule interaction analysis and protein kinetics profiling can all be easily accommodated using SensiQ Pioneer. Enhanced features such as in-line degassing, gradient injection, nanoscale fluidics, and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance combine to provide a high level of performance not available in other systems.

Please stop in and see us at the upcoming conferences or visit the article webpage for more information.

AntibodiesAntibodies are used in techniques such as confocal and fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISPOT, immunohistochemistry, western blotting and immunopreciptation. Select specific antigen reactivity, high specific affinity, low non-specific binding, monoclonal or polyclonal, primary or secondary antibodies and associated conjugates such as an enzyme or dye for visualization.BiosensorsBiosensors are devices used to detect an analyte using biological molecules specific to the analyte coupled to a detector. Biosensor instruments may be photometric, typically using surface plasma resonance (SPR), electrochemical or QCM (quartz crystal microbalance) biosensors. Biosensors should be selective, portable, robust and sensitive and have a fast response time. Systems may be manual or automated and usually have associated software.ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.Cell-Based AssaysCell-based assays are used to monitor the presence, quantity and activities of a desired cellular analyte including drug molecules or biomarkers. This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms.
