Fluor labelling for scarce samples
Designed specifically for small amounts of sample, the new labelling kit allows customers to use 2-D Dige methodology for the analysis of minute protein abundance differences
Each CyDye kit contains two vials of protein array grade mono-reactive dye packaged in a colour-coded securitainer for ease of identification.
The kits, one containing protein array grade Cy3 mono-reactive dye, and the other Cy5, will allow researchers to perform either one colour sandwich assays or multiplexed differential analysis.
The volume of dye provided with the new kits is more appropriate for those doing protein arrays than is currently available.
The kits contain sufficient dye to label material for 20 to 80 protein array slides.
Amersham Biosciences is the only supplier of mono-reactive CyDye fluors.
"The Cy3 and Cy5 CyDye fluors are the first products developed specifically for protein arrays from Amersham Biosciences.
The introduction of the new CyDye fluor kits confirms our commitment to fluorescent labelling and the protein arrays market segments", said Alan Livingston, strategic marketing director, protein profiling, Amersham Biosciences.
