Easy Estimation

The dotMETRIC protein and nucleic acid assays from Geno Technology Inc. of St. Louis make estimating protein and nucleic acid concentration simple and quick, with no expensive equipment. To estimate protein concentration, 1 µl of protein solution is mixed with the supplied dilution buffer and spotted onto a test strip. The resultant spot diameter is proportional to the concentration of the sample. The assay takes only eight to 10 minutes to perform and can detect as little as 2 ng of protein. The NUCLEIC dotMETRIC assay kit uses the same principle to detect small quantities of DNA, RNA, and oligonucleotides in solution in only two minutes. The kits, which contain an easy-to-use dotMETRIC application device and enough reagent for more than 300 assays, have a list price of $145.00.
