The β-Glucan Assay Kit (Yeast and Mushroom) is suitable for the indirect measurement of 1,3:1,6-β-glucan in yeast and mushroom preparations containing starch, glycogen, sucrose and trehalose.

We are happy to announce a new and improved procedure!

Trehalase enzyme has now been added to the β-Glucan Assay Kit (Yeast and Mushroom), further increasing the accuracy of β-glucan measurement for certain samples. The addition of trehalase removes instances of overestimation of β-glucan content in samples containing trehalose. Please refer to the assay protocol and the FAQ here for more information.

This product replaces the Enzymatic Yeast β-Glucan Assay Kit (K-EBHLG) as the method of measurement for β-glucan measurement in yeast samples. See here for more information. 

See our complete list of available polysaccharide assay kits.

Advantages

• Very cost effective
• All reagents stable for > 12 months after preparation 
• Only enzymatic kit available 
• Simple format 
• Mega-Calc™ software tool is available from our website for hassle-free raw data processing 
• Standard included

Description 

The PM5000 ExcelBand™ 3-color Pre-Stained Protein Ladder Regular Range is a ready-to-use three-color protein standard with 13 pre-stained proteins covering a wide range of molecular weights from 10 to 180 kDa in Tris-Glycine Buffer (9 to 170 kDa in Bis-Tris (MOPS) buffer and 10 to 170 kDa Bis-Tris (MES) buffer). Proteins are covalently coupled with different chromophores for easy identification of bands, with three reference proteins carrying enhanced intensity corresponding to a blue band at 20 kDa, green at 40 kDa, and red at 75 kDa, respectively, as separated on SDS-PAGE (Tris-Glycine buffer). The PM5000 ExcelBand™ 3-color Pre-Stained Protein Ladder Regular Range is designed for monitoring protein separation during SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, verification of Western transfer efficiency on membranes (PVDF, nylon, or nitrocellulose) and for approximating the size of proteins.

Features

• Ready-to-use — Premixed with a loading buffer for direct loading, no need to boil.
• Three reference bands — 75 kDa (red), 40 kDa (green), and 20 kDa (blue)

Contents 

Approximately 0.1~0.4 mg/ml of each protein in the buffer (20 mM Tris-phosphate (pH 7.5 at 25°C), 2% SDS, 0.2 mM DTT, 3.6 M urea, and 15% (v/v) glycerol). 

Quality Control 

Under suggested conditions, PM5000 ExcelBand™ 3-color Pre-Stained Protein Ladder Regular Range resolves 13 major bands in SDS-PAGE (Tris-Glycine, MOPS, and MES buffer) and after Western blotting to nitrocellulose membrane. 

Storage

4°C for 3 months 
-20°C for long term storage

RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is an engineered, extremely thermostable reverse transcriptase and combined DNA polymerase, obtained through directed, artificial evolution.

RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase can be used similarly to Tth DNA polymerase also for reverse transcription, but does not require the addition of Mn2+ for RT-PCR, which simplifies assay setup and possible sample processing.

– half-life at 95°C of >40 min.

– fast start function due to a hotstart aptamer formulation which prevents unspecific amplification at lower temperatures (<57°C)

– facilitates “zero-step” RT-PCRs directly from RNA templates (without an isothermal reverse transcription step), as reverse transcription takes place simultaneously with DNA amplification during the cycled PCR elongation step.

– allows reverse transcription reactions at high temperatures, thus minimizing the problems encountered with strong secondary structures in RNA that melt at elevated temperatures.

– RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is the pure, reverse transcription active enzyme ingredient of our Volcano3G® RT-PCR Master Mixes

Please note: Due to the thermostable nature of the enzyme, it is recommended to design very high melting primers and probes (>65°C). See more details in FAQ.
