Cellular Assays

Supplier: Cayman Chemical

For screening a variety of epigenetic compounds.

Supplier: Biotium

Firefly luciferase is widely used as a transcriptional reporter gene for research and drug screening. The Steady-Luc™ HTS kit can be used with luminescence plate readers without sample injection systems or for high-throughput screening.

Supplier: Cayman Chemical

A 96-well assay for measurement of PPARα DNA binding activity.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

COMET SCGE Assay measures DNA damage by fluorescently detecting the integrity of DNA liberated from cells embedded in low melting point agarose. Upon electrophoresis, fragmented DNA produces a characteristic "comet" shaped tail as small DNA fragments migrate in the gel more rapidly than in-tact genomic DNA.

Supplier: Tonbo Biosciences

Ghost Dye solutions allow for clear live vs. dead cell discrimination for more precise flow cytometry analysis, and are especially useful for intracellular staining protocols.

Supplier: Cayman Chemical

Cayman’s LipidLaunch™ BODIPY SM-102 LNP kit (loadable) provides cargo-ready, empty, BODIPY-labelled SM-102 LNPs. LNPs are capable of rapid encapsulation of nucleic acids, without the need for incubation steps, enabling subsequent delivery to target cells or other downstream research applications. Also demonstrate very low toxicity compared to traditional lipid-based transfection methods.

MITO-ID® Green Detection Kit is a potent mitochondria-selective dye suitable for live, permeabilised and fixed cell staining.

Supplier: Biotium

Stain microtubules in live cells with blue fluorescence.

Supplier: Biotium

ExoBrite™ WGA EV staining kits were designed to overcome some of the challenges of EV detection, particularly in flow cytometry. ExoBrite™ WGA EV stains bind to molecules in the EV membrane for bright, specific staining, with little background.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

MITO-ID® Red Detection Kit (GFP-CERTIFIED®) is a photostable, non-toxic and selective mitochondrial dye that stains live, detergent permeabilised and aldehyde fixed cells. This kit is specifically designed for use with GFP expressing cell lines, as well as cells expressing blue, cyan or yellow fluorescent proteins (BFP's, CFP's, YFP's).

Supplier: Biotium

Stain microtubules in live cells with far-red fluorescence.

Supplier: Molecular Devices

The Fura-2 QBT™ Calcium Kit eliminates the cause of data variability and reduces the number of steps compared to conventional wash protocols using Fura-2.

Supplier: Biotium

Wheat germ agglutinin binds specifically to N-acetylglucosamine in the peptidoglycan layer of gram-positive bacteria. The Live Bacterial Gram Stain Kit contains wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) conjugated to CF™594 to stain the surface of gram-positive cells with red fluorescence. The kit also includes DAPI to stain the DNA of all bacteria with blue fluorescence. Gram-positive bacteria stained using this kit will show a fluorescent blue interior and fluorescent red cell surface, while gram-negative bacterial will be stained with blue fluorescence only.

Supplier: Molecular Devices

The SpectraMax® Glo Steady-Luc™ Reporter Assay Kit provides a highly sensitive assay for the quantitation of firefly luciferase expression in mammalian cells. The assay kit is optimised for Molecular Devices SpectraMax® microplate readers with a preconfigured protocol provided in SoftMax® Pro Software for simplified data acquisition and analysis.

Supplier: Abcam

Fatty Acid Uptake Assay Kit (ab287857) enables rapid determination of real-time fatty acid uptake kinetics in live cells expressing fatty acid transporter proteins.

Supplier: Abcam

2-NBDG Glucose Uptake Assay Kit ab287845 uses the fluorescent glucose analog 2-NBDG to quantify the rate of cellular glucose uptake. Individual kit components also available for purchase with a minimum order of 20 units. Contact us to discuss your needs.
