Piscataway, NJ-based Amersham Biosciences introduces PlusOne Clean-Up kits and reagents for IEF, SDS-PAGE, and 2-D electrophoresis sample preparation. The PlusOne kits use a protein precipitation method that overcomes problems associated with traditional techniques, such as incomplete precipitation, inaccurate quantitation, and incomplete protein recovery. Researchers can prepare samples in 90 minutes with these reagents.

Microarray Magic
Synthetic Genetics of San Diego introduces the DNAnchor™ Microarray Attachment Kit for construction of DNA microarrays. The kit uses novel terminal attachment chemistry that allows the DNA capture probe to easily hybridize with the target, yielding stronger signals. The three-step procedure can be performed in three hours.
New for Neurons
Plymouth Meeting, Pa.-based BIOMOL's new Nupherin™-neuron reagent for high-efficiency lipofection of neuronal and ganglian cells improves the performance of cationic lipids by shuttling DNA into the cells and nuclei of neurons. The reagent is compatible with cells grown on glass coverslips, in plastic plates, or in tissue culture flasks; transfection is achieved in four hours.
