Product news

GE Healthcare announces the launch of the Human Fab Capture Kit for the reliable and rapid screening and characterization of human Fab antibody fragments with Biacore™ instruments. The kit is suitable for use with samples including crude cell lysates, periplasmic extracts or purified Fab fragments.

The rapid and reliable selection of the Fab fragments is ensured by a broad specificity for human Fab fragments, combined with a high capture efficiency and stability, providing excellent assay performance. The pre-optimized assay for this kit delivers resource, cost and time savings as it eliminates the need to find and identify suitable reagents, and minimizes assay development and verification. In addition, there is only a minimal need for adjustments between projects due to antigen-independent immobilization and regeneration conditions.

The Human Fab Capture Kit contains Human Fab Binder and immobilization buffer for 10 immobilizations and regeneration solution for 1000 regeneration injections when used with Biacore T100 and Biacore A100.

AntibodiesAntibodies are used in techniques such as confocal and fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISPOT, immunohistochemistry, western blotting and immunopreciptation. Select specific antigen reactivity, high specific affinity, low non-specific binding, monoclonal or polyclonal, primary or secondary antibodies and associated conjugates such as an enzyme or dye for visualization.ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.Protein PurificationProtein purification is a vital step in drug discovery, therapeutics, biotech and life science research. The purification process typically involves subcellular or membrane protein extraction with cell lysis kits, separation of proteins from cell debris by filtration or spin columns, and the isolation of proteins of interest from other proteins and impurities with affinity purification (including fusion protein tags and antibody binding proteins A, G and L), immunoprecipitation or chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange, size exclusion and immobilized metal affinity chromatography. All purification methods come in multiple formats for your laboratory needs, including agarose or magnetic beads, resins, columns and filter plates.
