Attogene’s Organophosphate detection kit is in designed specifically to detect Organophosphate in liquid samples.
Organophosphate compounds (OP) account for the largest class of rural and urban poisons in the world that are used to kill pests but can also be toxic to humans. OPs cause toxicity by means of blocking the acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AchE). The AChE-directed OPs react with a serine residue that is located at the catalytic site found within the AChE gorge. The OP targeted enzyme is no longer able to hydrolyze ACh, resulting in the buildup of ACh in the nerve synapse. This effect causes excessive excitation of the nerves, producing uncoordinated movements, tremors, paralysis and death. Both synthetic and natural(Guanitoxin) organophosphates are dangerous to humans — exposure can lead to visual, coordination, muscular, and neurological deficiencies, and in some cases even to death. In turn, exposure to OP is a significant public health concern which would significantly benefit from an improved detection platform.
Attogene’s Organophosphate detection kit is in designed specifically to detect Organophosphate in liquid samples. For solid samples a simple sample preparation method is performed. The ability to detect Organophosphate is performed is simple and sensitive. The reaction uses a chromophore that can be detected by eye. In the presence of Organophosphate, the rate of chromophore production is reduced in a concentration dependent fashion. The higher the concentration of Organophosphate the less color is produced.

Disulfide Biotin alkyne is an azide-activated cleavable biotin probe that allows for efficient recovery of avidin-bound protein complexes in affinity-based assays. This reagent contains a biotin moiety linked to an alkyne group through a spacer arm containing a cleavable disulfide linker. Under reducing conditions (50 mM dithiothreitol, 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol or 1% sodium borohydride), the disulfide bonds are cleaved, releasing the biotin tag and any avidin conjugate bound to it.
