Innova Biosciences Lightning-Link Rapid Antibody Labelling System
24 November, 2011 | Supplied by: BioNovus Life SciencesThe Innova Biosciences Lightning-Link Rapid Antibody Labelling System allows conjugations to be set up in seconds and the labelled antibody used within minutes. By circumventing the desalting or dialysis steps that commonly interrupt traditional protein labelling procedures, they can be used to label small quantities of antibody with 100% recovery of the labelled antibody. Labelled antibodies are suitable for Western blotting, ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunofluoresence and FACS analysis.
World’s largest artificial protein synthesised
16 November, 2011
Ten days of continuous processing by 400 of Vanderbilt’s supercomputer processors were needed to ascertain the most stable configuration of the largest human-built protein. The designed protein, containing 242 amino acids, has been synthesised and inserted into E. coli.

Oxford Expression Technologies superSf9 cells
17 October, 2011 | Supplied by: BioNovus Life Sciences
The superSf9 cells from Oxford Expression Technologies offer improved recombinant protein yield using the baculovirus protein expression system. The superSf9 cells are transgenic insect Sf9 cells that have been engineered to stably express an additional protein. The presence of this protein leads to prolonged longevity after infection with baculovirus and up to a 15-fold increase in recombinant protein production in baculovirus infected superSf9 cells compared with standard Sf9 cells.
