Automated Nucleic Acid Purification with Integrated Quantitation

Universal, HTS Kinase Screening Assays Use higher ATP concentrations: Linear response up to 500μM ATP. Use any kinase and kinase-substrate combination, including peptide, protein, lipid, and sugar substrates. Perform the assay without substrate modifications. Obtain reliable results: Z´-factor values routinely >0.7. Reduce false hits: Luminescence is much less susceptible to interference from library compounds t…

The ONE-Glo™ + Tox Assay combines luciferase assay chemistry with a cell viability marker to better understand reporter gene expression in the context of cell health. The assay uses a two-step, addition-only process to make these measurements in a single well of a plate, negating the need to run parallel assays. The first part of the assay is a nonlytic fluorescence assay (CellTiter-Fluor™ Cell Viability Assay) that measure…

The QuantiFluor™ RNA System contains a fluorescent RNA-binding dye that enables sensitive quantitation of small amounts of RNA in solution. Detecting and quantitating small amounts of RNA is a very important step used in many biological applications, particularly in molecular biology techniques. These include measuring yields of in vitro transcribed RNA and measuring RNA concentrations before performing Northern blot anal…

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…

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…

This instrument provides…

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…

The mass spectrometry-compatible yeast and human protein extracts are designed specifically for mass spectrometry applications.   The extracts are predigested and cleaned up by solid-phase extraction for immediate use in liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) analysis. Both the yeast and human extracts also are available in an intact undigested form to provide a test material for optimizing mass spec protei…

The GloMax® Explorer System is the newest member of the GloMax® System detection instruments. This multimode reader allows you to get up and running quickly, generating the data you need from your experiments. Simply unpack it, plug it in, and begin your experiments.

Sensitive Quantitation of Single-Stranded DNARequires less DNA than spectrophotometry

Ultrasensitive Single Tube Luminometer Two fluorescence modules available

A Complete Solution for Monitoring LC and MS Instrument Quality Control and Performance. In combination with an accompanying software tool, the 6 × 5 LC-MS/MS Peptide Reference Mix provides a convenient way to assess LC column performance and MS instrument parameters, including sensitivity and dynamic range. Consists of 30 peptides; 6 sets of 5 isotopologues of the same peptide sequence, differing only in the number o…

Measure Chymotrypsin-, Trypsin- and Caspase-Like Activities

LDH-Glo™ Cytotoxicity Assay detects cell death from a small number of cells, including 3D cell cultures, based on the release of lactate dehydrogenase.

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 RealTime-Glo™ Annexin V Apoptosis and Necrosis Assay provides a no-wash, one-step Annexin V assay that allows continual monitoring of cell state to determine apoptotic onset using a plate-reading luminometer.

The GSH/GSSG-Glo™ Assay is a bioluminescent assay to detect and quantitate total glutathione ratios.

The Caspase-Glo ® 3/7 Assay System is  a highly sensitive caspase activity assay for use in plate-reader assays.

The CellTiter-Blue® Cell Viability Assay provides a homogeneous, fluorescent method for monitoring cell viability. The assay is based on the ability of living cells to convert a redox dye (resazurin) into a fluorescent end product (resorufin). Nonviable cells rapidly lose metabolic capacity and thus do not generate a fluorescent signal. The homogeneous assay procedure involves adding the single reagent directly to cells cultur…
