ArcticZymes Proteinase is an unspecific endopeptidase originating from an Arctic marine microbial source. It has broad substrate specificity and is easy to inactivate after use.
Histones and other proteins are known to protect nucleic acids from interacting optimally with other DNA binding proteins and enzymes. ArcticZymes Proteinase is ideally suited for transforming chromatin and other dense nucleic acids to naked DNA. The enzyme is easy to heat-inactivate. This allows thermal inactivation at temperatures allowing RNA integrity as well as avoiding dissociation of dsDNA.

Trichinellosis is caused by Trichinella spiralis, a parasitic nematode of pork, horse and wild animals. Humans can be infected by eating raw or undercooked meat from infected animals. Most infected people do not show any symptoms. However, in some cases, symptoms appear during intestinal stage (diarrhea and abdominal pain) and muscular stage (muscle pain, fever, edema). Diagnosis is based on signs and symptoms, but in many cases it is not conclusive for the diagnosis. Serological assays have an important place on the final diagnosis of the disease. The ELISA kit has shown appropriate performance for the serological screening of trichinellosis.
This product is manufactured by Bordier Affinity Products in Switzerland and distributed in Germany exclusively by Milenia Biotec.
Method/Platform
ELISA in microplate format
Range/Assay Sensivity
95% sensitivity, 98% specificity
Test Principle
The kit provides all the material needed to perform 96 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) on breakable microtitration wells sensitized with Trichinella spiralisexcreted/secreted (E/S) larval antigens. Specific antibodies in the sample will bind to these antigens and washing will remove unspecific antibodies. The presence of parasite specific antibodies is detected with a Protein A – alkaline phosphatase conjugate. A second washing step will remove unbound conjugate. Revealing bound antibodies is made by the addition of pNPP substrate which turns yellow in the presence of alkaline phosphatase. Color intensity is proportional to the amount of Trichinella spiralis specific antibodies in the sample. Potassium phosphate is added to stop the reaction. Absorbance at 405 nm is read using an ELISA microplate reader. The test can be performed with automatic systems, but this must be validated by the user.

Bis-propargyl-PEG9 is crosslinking reagent containing two propargyl groups. These functional groups enable the formation of triazole linkages with azide-bearing compounds with the presence of copper catalyst. The hydrophilicity of the molecule is improved because of the PEG chain. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
