DBCO-PEG4-DBCO is a homobifunctional PEG linker containing two DBCO groups and a hydrophilic PEG spacer arm. DBCO will react with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules to form a stable triazole linkage without copper catalyst. The hydrophilic PEG spacer arm can increase water solubility and membrane permability. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

Cryptococcus neoformans is an encapsulated yeast. Infection with C. neoformans is known as cryptococcosis and is the cause of the most common life-threatening meningitis in patients with weakened immune systems, particularly in advanced HIV/AIDS. C. neoformans is commonly found in soil throughout the world. Human infection of C. neoformans occurs via inhalation of aerosolized spores. From the lungs, C. neoformans is spread hematogenously to the Central Nervous System (CNS), resulting in meningoencephalitis. Although the availability of antiretroviral therapy in the developed world has reduced the incidents of cryptococcosis, it is still a major problem in developing countries and is one of the leading causes of death in patients with HIV/AIDS. In fact, one of the major challenges in treating cryptococcosis is that many patients with cryptococcal CNS disease are asymptomatic in terms of cryptococcal pneumonia, making it difficult for early detection.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.
All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.

The D-Sorbitol/Xylitol test kit for the determination Of D-Sorbitol And Xylitol In Foodstuffs, such as bakery goods, diabetic foods, chocolate, fruit, sweets and more.
Sorbitol is non-cariogenic and finds many dietetic applications, but can cause gastrointestinal problems in adults if large quantities are consumed (10-50 g per day). It has been safely used in processed foods for almost half a century and finds applications in the cosmetics and pharmaceuticals industries.
Note for Content: The number of manual tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved. This can be readily accommodated using the MegaQuantTM Wave Spectrophotometer (D-MQWAVE).
