Cell membrane preparations containing nicotinic AChRs that are ligand-gated ion channels that form pores in cells plasma membranes, mediating fast signal transmission at synapses. Nicotinic AChRs are involved in a wide range of physiological processes, and can be either neuronal or muscle-type. The membrane preparations we have developed are suitable for receptor binding assays in which muscle type nicotinic AChRs are needed. The membranes are tested in several functional binding assays and quality testing criteria to meet binding specifications.

Overview
Detection kits for Candida albicans
CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Candida albicans is an opportunistic yeast and is the most common fungal pathogen found in the human body. C. albicans can be detected in the gastrointestinal tract, mouth, and vagina of approximately half of healthy adults. It is typically a commensal organism and makes up part of the natural human microflora; however it can overgrow and become pathogenic as a result of various conditions. For example, individuals who have taken recent courses of antibiotics, have a weakened immune system or have diabetes have an increased risk of developing a Candida albicans infection. When an overgrowth occurs, this can lead to common infections such as urinary tract infections, genital yeast infections, oral thrush, and mucocutaneous candidiasis. In the more severe cases, when Candida albicans enters the bloodstream or organs, it can lead to loss of sight, blood and bone infections, endocarditis, meningitis or inflammation of the intraabdominal lining.

Adenovirus Purification from any input – cell fraction or media fraction
Rapid purification within 2 to 4.5 hours
No specialized equipment needed (ultracentrifuge not required)
Purify adenovirus cell culture supernatant from 1 mL to 33.5 mL input per prep
Purify adenovirus cell pellet from 1 mL of input per prep
Up to 25X sample concentration
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix
Adenoviral vectors are useful tools for both in vitro and in vivo gene transfer, and oncolytic viruses based on adenovirus are highly promising for cancer treatment. Norgen’s Adenovirus Purification Kit provides a fast and simple procedure for concentrating and purifying adenoviral vectors from cell lysate and cell culture media. Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Norgen’s proprietary resin as an ion exchanger. Contaminating cellular debris is largely removed from the sample via a centrifugation step, while contaminating DNA and RNA is reduced using enzymatic digestion. Adenoviral vectors purified in this manner are highly active for use in transduction experiments.
Norgen’s Adenovirus Purification Kit contains sufficient materials for 15 preparations (33.5 mL per prep of supernatant or a total of 500 mL of supernatant input). Approximately 1 mL of cell pellet can be purified per prep, up to a maximum of 15 mL of cell pellet in total for the entire kit.
At least 3×1011 adenovirus particles as determined by qPCR At least 3×108 transducing units as determined by transduction assay
