Biotin-PEG4-alkyne is a PEG linker containing a biotin group and a terminal alkyne. Biotin is useful for affinity-based applications such as pull-down assays or for ligating with streptavidin proteins while terminal alkynes are used in copper (I) click chemistry with azides to form stable triazoles with a target molecule. The inclusion of a PEG linker in this molecule improves its aqueous solubility.

Product Info
The Flex caddy allows the Temperature Module GEN2 to be installed on the Opentrons Flex deck and sit below the deck, enabling below-deck cable routing and labware placed on top of modules to remain closer to the deck surface. The calibration adapter is used to calibrate the location of the Temperature Module. Caddies and calibration adapters are specific to the type of module.
Note: This item does not include the Temperature Module. The module is available with or without the Flex Caddy and Calibration tool: Temperature Module GEN2

LyoBeads are ready-to-use, freeze-dried master mixes in shape of a small ball or spheres.
Standard LyoBeads contain DNA polymerase(s), reaction buffer and dNTPs. LyoBeads can also contain Primer & Probes when produced customized. They are rehydrated within seconds in any aqueous solutions, which makes reaction setup very simple. Only a biological sample has to be added.
Storage: LyoBeads are shipped and stored simply at room-temperature. This provides a more cost efficient and ecological distribution compared to other master mixes.
LyoBeads can be pre-dispensed in PCR-strips, PCR-plates, cartridges etc.
All necessary components for PCR are already included in one LyoBead: an engineered DNA polymerase, an optimized reaction buffer and ultrapure dNTPs. Only primers and probes need to be added. A hot-start formulation of the included DNA polymerase prevents false amplification during the reaction set-up.
For research use and further manufacturing.
In case you are aiming to use our RUO products as components or for your development of e.g. an IVD medical device, please contact us.

Attogene’ s Cylindrospermopsin Lateral Flow Kit can be used to detect Cylindrospermopsin in source water samples.
Format: Rapid-Water – Run Time: 30 Minutes, enough to run two samples (undiluted and a 10 fold dilution) and negative control.
Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is a potent cyanotoxin synthesized by select species of cyanobacteria, prominently including Cylindrospermopsin raciborskii. It belongs to the tricyclic alkaloid class, exhibiting a molecular weight of approximately 415 Da. Structurally, cylindrospermopsin features an uracil ring fused with a hydantoin moiety, alongside a guanidino group, attributes that render it highly soluble and polar in aqueous environments.
Cylindrospermopsin is notorious for its profound toxicity towards aquatic organisms and its potential threat to human health through exposure via contaminated water and food sources. Consequently, rigorous monitoring protocols are essential in regions prone to cyanobacterial blooms, where cylindrospermopsin can accumulate in freshwater reservoirs and other aquatic habitats. In recognition of these risks, regulatory bodies such as the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have implemented an action level guideline. As of 2019, EPA 10-day drinking water health advisory for cylindrospermopsin recommended a threshold of 0.7 parts per billion (ppb), or 700 parts per trillion (ppt) for children under the age of six, and 3 parts per billion, 3000 parts per trillion for anyone older, to effectively manage cylindrospermopsin levels. This precautionary measure aims to uphold both environmental sustainability and public health integrity by minimizing exposure risks. The EPA has also drafted a human health recreational water quality criterion to protect human health at 8,000ppt.
