The 'critical micelle concentration' (CMC) of a detergent varies with temperature, pH, ionic strength, detergent concentration, purity and presence of organic agents in the detergent. Using a large excess of detergent may pose problems during purification procedures or other downstream applications.

InGel™ Blue provides a complete set of reagents for the in-gel tryptic digestion and extraction of peptides for mass spectrometry (MALDI and LC MS/MS). The kit is specifically designed for use with Coomassie® or fluorescent stained protein spots/bands.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

Immobilised biotin resin is designed for the high affinity chromatography purifications of avidin, streptavidin and neutravidin protein. The resin consists of biotin coupled to 6% cross-linked agarose.

Protein-S-S-Reductant™ uses TCEP (Tris [2-carboxyethyl] phosphine), a popular alternative to β-mercaptoethanol and DTT (dithiothreitol). TCEP improves stability, increases effectiveness, and reduces proteins over a wider range of pH, including lower acidic pHs. Protein-S-S-Reductant™ completely reduces stable disulfide bonds in less than 5 minutes at room temperature and is compatible with the protein alkylation reactions. This ready to use solution is at a neutral pH and stabilised for long-term storage. Simply supplement Protein-S-S-Reductant™ in place of DTT or β-mercaptoethanol and boil the sample.

InGel™ provides a reliable method for the proteolytic digestion and subsequent extration of silver stained proteins in gel for subsequent analysis by mass spectrometry.

Supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific

Chymotrypsin protease is a purified native endoproteinase validated for maximum activity and selectivity in proteomic applications.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

Immobilised Iminobiotin Resin consists of iminobiotin, a cyclic guanido analog of biotin, covalently coupled to 6% crosslinked agarose. The resin allows for the purification of avidin, streptavidin and Neutravidin and their subsequent gentle elution using non denaturing elution buffers.

Supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific

Glu-C protease is a highly specific endoproteinase use to improve sequence coverage in mass spectrometry protein identification applications.

Supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific

Asp-N protease is a highly specific endoproteinase used to improve sequence coverage in mass spectrometry protein identification applications.

Supplier: Abcam

This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called 8002 EZLys™ Tissue Protein Extraction Reagent.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

Detergents are essential for protein solubility during protein extraction and sample preparation, especially when working with hydrophobic proteins. The presence of high concentrations of detergents in protein samples can impair ELISA, IEF, protease digestion of proteins and suppress peptide ionisation when analysed by mass spectrometry.

Pierce™ TMTzero™ Label Reagent serves as a "light" tag for MS-level peptide quantitation similar to duplex isotopic metabolic labeling, such as SILAC, or isotopic dimethylation labeling.

Supplier: Abcam

Universal HIER antigen retrieval reagent (10X) is a heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) solution that is compatible with virtually all antibodies and eliminates the need for multiple buffers, including citrate buffer, EDTA or high pH Tris buffers. - Cited in over 20 publications - Colour-coded pH indicator for accuracy - Superior pH stability at high temperatures - Non-toxic, odorless, and azide-free - Optimized for FFPE tissue antigen retrieval

The use of peptides for the generation of antibodies against specific peptides has become an essential tool in proteomic research. A crucial step in using peptides as antigens is their coupling to carrier proteins. Peptides are designed to be good epitopes by themselves; however they fail to elicit a strong antibody response. The reason for this is that the epitopes are able to bind to the B-cells, but are too small to contain additional motifs required to associate with class II molecules and T-cell receptors. The carrier proteins, once coupled to the peptides, provide these additional motifs and generate a strong antibody response. All three carrier proteins are also offered as activated carrier proteins, named as ActiveHOOK™.
