Biotin LC hydrazide is a long chain protein modification reagent, which can transform periodate-oxidized glycoproteins.
Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) is a 583-residue protein consisting of three homologous all-α domains, organized in a heart-shaped structure. BSA is a globular protein that is used in numerous biochemical applications.
HDAOS is a novel Trinder's reagent, which is a highly water-soluble aniline derivative; are widely used in diagnostic tests and biochemical tests.
The Boehringer Mannheim cholesterol esterase/cholesterol oxidase/peroxidase/3,4-dichlorophenol kinetic reagent was modified by the inclusion of 2,4,6-tribromo-3-hydroxybenzoic acid which reacts with hydrogen peroxide and 4-aminophenazone to produce a quinone-imine dye with a greater molar absorptivity than that produced with phenol.
X-GAL(BCIG) is an organic compound consisting of galactose linked to a substituted indole; X-gal is much used in molecular biology to test for the presence of an enzyme, β-galactosidase.
Tetrazolium Red(2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride; TPTZ) is used to visualize dehydrogenase enzyme activity; initially the tetrazolium solution is colorless but changes to red when it comes into contact with hydrogen. Tetrazolium red is used in a biochemical viability test for seeds. The test relies on dehydrogenase enzymes to release hydrogen ions which subsequently reduce the colorless tetrazolium salt solution to a red compound called formazan. Living cells turn red while dead cells remain colorless.
CNP-AFU (2-Chloro-4-nitrophenyl α-L-fucopyranoside) is a substrate for alpha-L-fucosidase(AFU).
Tos-Gly-Pro-Arg-ANBA-IPA is a peptide substrate for luminescence measurement. Sequence: Tos-Gly-Pro-Arg-ANBA-IPA.
DAOS, a Trinder's reagent, is a novel highly water-soluble aniline derivative; are widely used in diagnostic tests and biochemical tests.
Cremophor EL is a polyethoxylated surfactant.
APB is a cell-permeable, efficient kinase cosubstrate with conversions and kinetics similar to those of other known ATP analogues. APB shows a cytotoxicity EC50 value of 19 ± 1 mM.APB is shown to promote biotin labeling of kinase substrates in live cells and has future applications in phosphoprotein purification and analysis. APB is cell-permeable and nontoxic at low mM concentrations, with cell penetration and labeling dependent on the polyamine linker.
Sodium molybdate is a useful source of molybdate. It is often found as Sodium molybdate dihydrate. In murine models, Sodium molybdate dihydrate inactivated both the active and inactive form of the gluco corticoid receptor complex. With the use of nitrites, molybdate salts have been shown to reduce the emission of hydrogen sulfide from swine manure.
2-(Pyridyldithio)ethylamine hydrochloride is a novel disulfide intercalating cross-linking reagent.
Methyl-β-cyclodextrin, a cyclic heptasaccharide, is an effective agent for the depletion of cholesterol from cells; also inhibits PEL cell growth with an IC50 of 3.33-4.23 mM.
O-propargyl-puromycin, an alkyne analog of puromycin, is a potent protein synthesis inhibitor.
ONPG is a colorimetric and spectrophotometric substrate for detection of β-galactosidase activity.
Quin-2AM is a fluorecent Ca2+ chelator, with high affinity for calcium.
Enbucrilate (Butyl cyanoacrylate) is a cyanoacrylate ester that has been used as surgical tissue adhesive.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone is a compound which has been widely tested and used in human and veterinary medicine as an effective wound healing accelerator and disinfectant when combined with iodine and other compounds.
Biotin-VAD-FMK is a cell permeable, irreversible biotin-labeled caspase inhibitor, used to identify active caspases in cell lysates.
MTT is a colorimetric agent widely used to measure cell proliferation. MTT is reduced from yellow color to purple formazan in living cells.
Sodium orthovanadate is an inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatases, alkaline phosphatases and a number of ATPases, most likely acting as a phosphate analogue.
β-Cyclodextrin is a cyclic polysaccharide composed of seven units of glucose (α-D-glucopyranose) linked by α-(1,4) type bonds. β-Cyclodextrin has often been used to enhance the solubility of drugs.
6-O-α-Maltosyl-β-cyclodextrin is a cellular cholesterol modifier which can form soluble inclusion complex with cholesterol.
Tween 80 is a surfactant which can also reduce bacterial attachment and inhibit biofilm formation.
Cottonseed oil is a cooking oil extracted from the seeds of cotton plants and has been generally considered the most insecticidal of vegetable oils.
