Detection of Calcium Concentration Changes Using the FLx800TM Fluorescence Microplate Reader
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The divalent cation, calcium, serves as a mediator for a large number of intracellular biological responses. The advent of specific fluorogenic compounds that specifically bind to calcium has allowed investigators to study changes in Ca2+ under a variety of conditions. The purpose of this application note is to demonstrate the utility of the FLx800 fluorescence microplate reader to detect rapid changes in calcium ion concentration.

Feasibility of microfluidic routes to monitor protein stability as a tool for bioprocessing
During the bioprocessing of therapeutics, proteins may become damaged leading to modifications and changes in stability. This may, as a consequence, cause serious and potentially fatal side effects when administered to patients making damage assessment crucial. High throughput determination of protein stability has become an important factor in many different areas such as protein engineering, ...
متن کاملFluorescence Polarization Detection of Brucella abortus and Mycobacterium bovis specific antibodies Using Kits from Diachemix
Brucella abortus and Mycobacterium bovis are zoonotic pathogens that cause Brucellosis and Tuberculosis in cattle respectively. Besides being a serious public health threat, these agents cause significant economic losses throughout the world. Here we use the fluorescence polarization capabilities of the SynergyTM 2 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader to run Brucella and Mycobacterium bovis antibody de...

An attempt was made to demonstrate the possibility of performing LanthaScreen™ TR-FRET based nuclear receptor coactivator recruitment assay using PHERAstar, a multi-detection HTS microplate reader. LanthaScreen™ nuclear receptor coactivator recruitment assay (M/s Invitrogen corporation, USA) was performed using PPAR-gamma receptor preparation in the agonist mode. TR-FRET measurements were done ...
متن کاملDetermination of NADH Concentrations with the SynergyTM 2 Multi-Detection Microplate Reader using Fluorescence or Absorbance
Many biological assays have as their basis a link to the oxidative status of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Many dehydrogenase enzymes use these coenzymes to transfer hydrogen groups between molecules. Because the reduced forms of these molecules differ from the oxidized forms in their ability to absorb light, it is possible to qua...
متن کاملMedically Relevant Assays with a Simple Smartphone and Tablet Based Fluorescence Detection System
Cell phones and smart phones can be reconfigured as biomedical sensor devices but this requires specialized add-ons. In this paper we present a simple cell phone-based portable bioassay platform, which can be used with fluorescent assays in solution. The system consists of a tablet, a polarizer, a smart phone (camera) and a box that provides dark readout conditions. The assay in a well plate is...
