Product news

Stop by booth #810 to play our YFG Secret Decoder Game and learn how Sigma Life Sciences can help accelerate your cancer research with the new YFG powered by Ingenuity biological search tool and other highlighted innovative products included below:

• Award Winning CompoZrTM Zinc Finger Nuclease Technology
• MISSION® RNAi libraries and products
• Imprint Line of Epigenetics Products
• Prestige Antibodies® powered by Atlas

Imagine a tool that gives you the power to navigate a universe of continuously curated biological data and interactive genetic networks all with a single click. Sigma has partnered with Ingenuity Systems, a leading provider of life science information solutions, to offer researchers an entire universe of biological content, complete with dynamic pathways, interaction networks and one-click product selection through their new YFG powered by Ingenuity biological search engine. Researchers will be able to find products of interest via user-friendly queries on gene and protein name or IDs, disease, function, species, tissue, pathways, or other contextual information such as the MISSION RNAi libraries and products and Prestige Antibodies.

Researchers will be able to explore gene pathways and molecular interaction networks based on knowledge from the scientific literature to quickly understand alternative product and experimental design options. The new YFG powered by Ingenuity will also allow researchers to use interactive, up-to-date pathways and biological and chemical network diagrams to help them understand upstream and downstream relationships optimize their experimental design. Best of all, Sigma will be providing access to this information for free.

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.Chem / BioinformaticsCheminformatics and bioinformatics are computational techniques used in chemistry and biology, respectively, for data acquisition, processing and storage. Cheminformatics focuses on compound information, whereas bioinformatics is mainly applied to analysis and modeling of genomics, genetic and sequencing information. Hardware and software is available for data acquisition, analysis, management and storage.RNA InterferenceRNA interference (RNAi) uses siRNA or miRNA for transcriptional silencing, gene knockdown and regulation of gene expression. RNAi requires chemical synthesis, introduction of DNA vectors into cells, an assay of RNAi effects and RNAi quantification or analysis. Consider target sequence selection, reagent preparation, controls, high specificity and effectiveness and low non-specific gene knockdown.
