Description
Q-PAGE™ TGN (Tris-Glycine Novel) Precast Gels are ready-to-use acrylamide gels for SDS-PAGE running in Tris-Glycine buffer system. With unique formula, Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels perform enhanced speed, better separation, and longer shelf life as compared with conventional Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. The protein migration patterns in Q-PAGE™ TGN series, however, are similar with typical Laemmli Tris-HCl gels, and thus Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are compatible to traditional SDS-PAGE and subsequent analyses.
Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 15%) and fixed (10%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 12- and 15-well formats. Two available cassette sizes, Mini (10 x 8.3 cm) and Midi (10 x 10 cm), are compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems. Q-PAGE™ Mini (QP4XXX) Gels are suitable for Bio-Rad® and other systems. Q-PAGE™ Midi (QP5XXX) Gels are suitable for Invitrogen® XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell, Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank, Hoefer SE260, and other systems.

The ProteoSpin™ Total Protein Concentration, Detergent Clean-Up and Endotoxin Removal Kits are designed for the rapid removal of endotoxins from previously purified proteins or peptides, with protein recoveries of > 95% being achieved. Endotoxins, also known as lipopolysaccharides, are cell-membrane components of Gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli. Endotoxins liberated by Gram-negative bacteria are frequent contaminations of protein solutions derived from bioprocesses. Due to the high toxicity of endotoxins in vivo and in vitro, their removal from protein preparations is often necessary prior to the use of the protein in downstream applications. These kits efficiently reduce endotoxin levels to ≤ 0.01 EU/mg of protein, using spin column chromatography based on Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. These kits are highly efficient in removing many different salts commonly used in the laboratory including, but not limited to, MgCl2, NaCl, KCl, CaCl2, LiCl and CsCl. The purified protein samples can be used in a number of downstream applications including sequencing, cloning, and in vitro and in vivo introduction into cells and organisms for various purposes. The simultaneous removal of salts while concentrating a dilute protein solution makes the kit a convenient method for preparing proteins before running many downstream applications such as SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing, X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy and other applications.
Mini Kit
The ProteoSpin™ Total Protein Concentration, Detergent Clean-Up and Endotoxin Removal Mini Kit is designed for the rapid removal of endotoxins from up to 200 μg of previously purified proteins or peptides, with protein recoveries of > 95% being achieved.
Maxi Kit
The ProteoSpin™ Total Protein Concentration, Detergent Clean-Up and Endotoxin Removal Maxi Kit is designed for the rapid removal of endotoxins from up to 4 mg of previously purified proteins or peptides, with protein recoveries of > 95% being achieved.

Biocolor’s Purple-Jelley assay kit is the perfect tool for accurate measurement of hyaluronic acid / Hyaluronan levels in your samples. This colorimetric assay is optimised for quantitative analysis in-vivo, tissue-derived hyaluronic acid / Hyaluronan and includes full step-by-step instructions.
Colorimetric Detection (655nm) (Endpoint)
Hyaluronic acid, in its hydrated form, is a unique carbohydrate polymer, often referred to as a ‘gentle giant.’ It consists of a lengthy, flexible, non-branching chain with a repeating disaccharide pattern. This disaccharide is composed of alternating uronic acid and aminosugar units.
Discovering the J-Aggregate Effect in Cyanine DyesIn 1936, Edwin Jelley made a fascinating observation, documented it in a letter to Nature (Nature 138, 1009 – 1010). He noted a peculiar behaviour of certain cyanine dyes, that when dissolved in 5 M NaCl, they dyes exhibited a third absorbance peak at a longer wavelength, around 650nm. In deionized water, however, they displayed only a double peak at approximately 540nm and 570nm. The 650nm peak in concentrated dye solutions resulted from the aggregation of dye molecules and was later termed a ‘J-aggregate,’ in honor of Edwin Jelley. The J-aggregate is known as a supra-molecular complex, formed by stacking individual dye molecules.
Subsequent research in the 1960s, notably by Kay et al. (J. Physical Chem. 68, 1896 – 1906), revealed that various biological polymers, including proteins, DNA, polar lipids, and glycosaminoglycans, could also induce this third absorbance peak. This phenomenon led to the development of the Purple-Jelley assay, named after the purple color of the dye reagent and Edwin Jelley himself.
During the assay, hyaluronic acid is selectively purified during the assay sample preparation protocol. This is then reacted with the Purple-Jelley dye reagent, and the absorption of the characteristic third wavelength recorded. By comparison with a calibration curve the hyaluronic acid content of the sample can be measured.
Step 1. The assay protocol takes tissue samples through a sequential sample preparation protocol which involves enzymatic protein digestion, followed by precipitation and purification of GAGs, culminating in the precipitation of purified Hyaluronic acid.
Step2. The processed sample is then incubated for 10 minutes with the Purple-Jelley dye reagent, forming a coloured product which can be measured spectrophotometrically.
Step 3. The Hyaluronic acid content of unknown samples can be calculated by comparison against a calibration curve prepared using a standard comprising hyaluronic acid (supplied with the kit).

In-vivo: Hyaluronic acid purified from in-vivo tissues. The kit protocol involves extraction and purification of hyaluronic acid prior to reaction with the Purple-Dye reagent.
This kit is designed for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Kit requires access to a centrifuge, as well as a spectrophotometer/colorimeter capable of colorimetric, absorbance detection at 655nm.
