Specac manufactures a wide range of high-quality Evacuable Pellet Dies suitable compacting powdered samples into discs or briquettes. These are particularly well suited for the preparation of solid KBr pellets for FTIR molecular spectroscopic analysis and XRF pellets for X-Ray Fluorescence atomic spectroscopic analysis (as required by a number of USLP and ASTM methods), but also find use in a broad range of other applications.…
The constant thickness film maker accessory is ideal for the preparation of reproducible thickness polymer films. The films produced are 29mm in diameter and can be varied in thickness by using a set spacing ring. The accessory is designed to be used with the Atlas Heated Platens which allows for a maximum temperature of 300°C, and is compatible with Specac's range of Atlas Manual, Power, and Automatic Presses.
Specac’s High Temperature High Pressure Cell (HTHP) Accessory is a multipurpose cell for the FTIR analysis of solid samples in transmission, decomposition, or specular reflectance modes. Sample temperatures up to 800ºC can be obtained and the cell can operate at pressures from vacuum (0.1 torr) to 1000 psi for in-situ reaction studies. The standard HTHP Cell (GS05850) can be used for transmission analysis of 13 mm diameter…
Specac’s Omni Cell System presents a novel approach for the analysis of liquid, mulls, pastes, and cast film samples in UV, Vis, NIR, and IR transmission spectroscopy, with one cell mount being suitable for all applications.
An arrayed or non-arrayed BAC library is the preferred choice for downstream applications such as hybridization screening; full-genome sequencing; BAC end sequencing or physical mapping projects. Amount of clones received is based on a guaranteed coverage and 120Kb average insert size. HMW DNA isolation and QC by HMW DNA enzymatic digestion are included. Deliverables for ARRAYED BAC library: Clones will be arrayed and amplifie…
A pooled BAC library is an invaluable tool for PCR-screening. It allows for the easy retrieval of BAC clones of interest. This type of library is especially useful when genome size is large and creating an arrayed library is cost-prohibitive. We typically construct a minimum 5X BAC library and BAC clones are then pooled and distributed in 96-well plates. Each well will contain about 400-500 original BAC clones. HMW DNA isolati…
Our uncloned normalized cDNA is created using proprietary technology which features full-length-enriched and high quality size-fractionated cDNA. Our cDNA has been used successfully with FLX, Titanium an Illumina sequencing.
Our cDNA libraries feature full-length-enriched and high quality size-fractionated cDNA. cDNA library construction is usually done in slightly-modified versions of pBluescript or pcDNA3.1. Insert sizes will range from about 0.5Kb to 4Kb. Concerning QC steps, we evaluate the average insert size, empty clone rate and clone concentration/tube before shipping out. We always provide a gel picture of randomly selected clones showing…
APAgene™ GOLD Genome Walking Kits are designed to rapidly and reliably amplify unknown genomic DNA using our patented APA technology: 1. Isolate unknown genomic sequences flanking transgenes (including T-DNAs, gene traps, transposons), sequence-tagged sites (STSs) or expressed sequence tags (ESTs). 2. Isolate localized sequences flanking known sequences from large clones and genomic DNAs. 3. Sequence insert ends of large clone…
ASH is APA-based, full-length-enriched, single-stranded cDNA subtraction hybridization library. - ASH cDNA subtraction is full-length-enriched and independent of PCR suppression. - ASH cloning is directional and does not involve normalization. - ASH method provides non-exponential amplification before subtraction because double-stranded cDNA is not required. - ASH method has a better subtraction effect because 1) a high ratio…
Bio S&T's high-quality RNA can be used directly for NxGen RNA sequencing as well as other downstream applications that require optimal-quality RNA such as quantitative real-time RT-PCR, microRNA cloning and amplification and Northern blotting.
Fosmid clones are similar in size (ca. 40kb) to cosmids, but, like BAC clones, they contain replicons derived from the F factor for DNA replication and segregation. Because of this property, they are present in low copy number and consequently more stable than cosmids. Also, the copy control vector can be used for easy DNA purification from fosmid clones. Fosmid libraries are commonly used for closing gaps in a whole genome se…
Bio S&T has successfully established an ex vivo rat lung slice culture (LSC) system which bridges the advantages of in vivo model with the ease of in vitro techniques. Extensive experiments have shown that the system is highly consistent and stable on induction of collagen formation. Early alveolar fibrotic features can be induced within a much shorter time (days) compared to the animal model. Increasing collagen content in th…
