Isoleucine provides a source of nitrogen for transport to the liver and kidney.

8-Anilino-1-naphthalene Sulfonic Acid is a hydrophobic polarity sensitive fluorescent dye useful as a site probe to detect conformational changes in cell and micelle membranes and molecules such as proteins. ANSA is also used as a fluorescent probe for the estimation of the critical micelle…

Glutathione suppresses human immunodeficiency virus expression in chronically infected monocytic cells. It is a useful tripeptide involved in many aspects of metabolism, including transport of g-glutanyl amino acids and reductive cleavage of disulfide bonds.

2-Mercaptoethanol is used to reduce disulfide linkages in solubilizing proteins for gel electrophoresis.

Ammonium persulfate is a strong oxidizing agent. It is a radical initiator. Ammonium persulfate is a polymerization catalyst used with TEMED for polyacrylamide gel formation. APS has also been utilized to study protein-protein interactions via photoinitiated crosslinking chemistry. Other…

Resorcinol is an aromatic alcohol used in large scale processes such as tanning, the manufacture of resins and resin adhesives, the production of hexylresorcinol and p-aminosalicylic acid, and the dyeing and printing of textiles.

MOPSO sodium salt is a zwitterionic aminosulfonate buffer that is very similar in structure to MOPS (3-morpholinopropanesulfonic acid), differing by the presence of a hydroxyl group on C-2 of the propane moiety.

Adenine has a wide range of chemical and biochemical roles in vivo and in vitro. It is a regulatory molecule and a component of DNA, RNA, cofactors (NAD, FAD) and signaling molecules (cAMP). It is used as a blood preservative and in viral research.

TEMPO is a catalytic oxidant in the iodobenzene diacetae oxidation of nerol to neral. TEMPO has been utilized in the catalytic oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes. TEMPO reacts preferentially with carbon-centered radicals.  

Melibiose has been used in a study to improve the preparation of benzoylated ethyl 1-thioglycosides. It has also been used in a study to investigate the effect of water plasticization on the molecular mobility and crystallization tendency of amorphous disaccharides.

Coomassie® Brilliant Blue R-250 is a fast acting, sensitive dye. Brilliant Blue R can be used for staining proteins on polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels. Improvement of sensitivity and background have been accomplished using Brilliant Blue dyes in a colloidal form. Other applications for…

Amoxicillin is an antibacterial agent against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Amoxicillin is a moderate-spectrum, β-lactam antibiotic. Amoxicillin is one of the most common antibiotics prescribed for children. It is used to study the oxygen dependent antimicrobial systems of…

Tricine was first prepared by Good for use as a buffer for chloroplast reactions. It is structurally similar to Tris, but is much less inhibitory at high concentrations. For ATP assays using firefly luciferase, tricine buffer at 25 mM was found to be the best of ten common buffers tested. …

Bromophenol blue migrates at approximately the same rate as 300-500bp DNA in agarose gel and at the buffer front in protein polyacrylamide gels. Applications Bromophenol blue is a tracking dye for alkaline and neutral buffer systems. It is used as a tracking dye in DNA, RNA (agarose) and…
