Sodium azide is used as a preservative for laboratory reagents; a bacteriostatic agent in storage solutions. Inhibits gram negative flora so is therefore included in culture media for the selective isolation of Streptococci and Staphylococci. It has been used to avoid bacterial contamination during…

Salicin is a substrate for β-glucosidase.

o-Nitrophenyl-β-D-galactoside (ONPG) is a colorimetric substrate for b-galactosidase. This product is hydrolyzed to o-nitrophenol by the enzyme. o-Nitrophenol is yellow in alkaline solution and can be quantitated at 410-420 nm 2 . o-Nitrophenyl-β-D-galactoside is a cell culture…

Glutathione is the major low molecular weight thiol compound of the living plant or animal cell. It is a tripeptide with a gamma peptide linkage between the amine group of cysteine (which is attached by normal peptide linkage to a glycine) and the carboxyl group of the glutamate side-chain. It is…

(TMB Powder) This product is excellent for ELISA procedures. C₁₆H₂₀N₂ MW 240.3

A modified tripeptide reversible protease inhibitor of trypsin-like proteases and some cysteine proteases including endoproteinase Lys-C, kallikrein, papain, thrombin, cathepsin B, cathepsins H and L, trypsin, calpain, trypsin and plasmin. Little to no inhibition is seen against pepsin, cathepsins…

2,2′-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) is a peroxidase substrate suitable for use in ELISA procedures. This substrate produces a soluble end product that is green in color and can be read spectrophotometrically at 405 nm. The reaction may be stopped with 1% sodium dodecyl…
