Applications:

• Detection and quantification of DNA and cDNA targets
• Lyophilization to beads and cakes
• DNA/LNA hydrolysis probe-based assays
• Singleplexing and multiplexing (up to 5 plex)
• Microbial detection
• Viral load determination
• Genotyping

Associates of Cape Cod, Inc. – BioTek Epoch 2 Microplate Spectrophotometer

The BioTek Epoch 2 microplate spectrophotometer delivers excellent performance for UV-Vis absorbance measurements. Measurements can be performed in 6- to 384-well microplates, cuvettes, and in microvolume samples with the available Take3 microvolume plate. The broad wavelength range enables applications from nucleic acid and protein quantification in the low UV to microbial growth assays higher wavelengths.

Integration with ACC’s Pyros® eXpress software allows for an array of endotoxin specific reagents including ACC’s PyroSmart NextGen® recombinant cascade reagent (rCR) to be easily used.

FEATURED PRODUCTS

Vector Laboratories & GlycoSeLect Ltd. – We Have Lectins for Your Research!

Lectins are versatile tools in life science research, impacting fields such as molecular biology, immunology, medicine, and clinical analysis. Their ability to recognize glycans opens avenues for innovative discoveries and applications. In cancer research, they have proven to be a useful tool for the identification of novel PSA biomarkers and for gaining valuable insight into the glycan profile of a sample for the development of anticancer therapeutics.

 Vector Laboratories – Plant Lectins

 GlycoSeLect – Recombinant Lectins

For the months of April to July, we are offering a discount on all lectins and bioconjugation products in support of cancer awareness month. See details below.

Hycult Biotech – Tools for Complement Research

The complement system is a crucial part of the immune system, consisting of a group of proteins that work together to defend the body against infections and support immune responses. It plays a pivotal role in recognizing and eliminating pathogens, promoting inflammation, and facilitating the removal of cellular debris.

Hycult’s highly specific and sensitive antibodies offer precise detection of complement C3 in various samples, including serum, plasma, and tissue lysates.
Unsure about the right antibody for your research?
Utilize their comprehensive C3 antibody guide or connect with MJS BioLynx for personalized assistance.

Cell Guidance Systems – Why are PODS® Useful?

PODS® provide sustained release of the bioactive cargo protein (over periods >1 month) to generate a more constant environment for cells. PODS® may be placed in discrete positions on, or within, substrates or distributed evenly across a culture system. As a result, PODS® technology addresses many of the issues of conventional recombinant proteins which are difficult to localize and quickly lose efficacy.

By creating a more stable environment, in-vitro and in-vivo, PODS® improve cell quality, enhance survival, differentiation, and maturation of cells.
