Ractopamine ELISA Test Kit is a competitive enzyme immunoassay for detection in meat, feed, liver, kidney, milk, urine, serum and plasma. Ractopamine has been banned for use as a livestock growth promoter in many countries around the world. To prevent ractopamine residues from entering the food chain, both producers and government surveillance agencies need technologies and methods that can provide rapid, accurate and reliable detection at specific sensitivities. This kit enables government agencies, food manufacturers, as well as quality assurance organizations, to detect ractopamine as low as 0.1 ng/g or ppb level in a variety of sample types.
The ExcelTaq™ 2X Fast Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, ROX) is a ready-to-use reagent with all the essential components for quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) except primers and templates. The master mix contains a highly stable hot-start Taq polymerase in an optimized buffer with dsDNA specific SYBR green fluorescent dye. Consequently, the ExcelTaq™ 2X Fast Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, ROX) features high stability during storage, even at 37°C for weeks. In addition to high sensitivity and signal intensity, the ExcelTaq™ 2X Fast Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, ROX) performs a low background/ high specificity qPCR results, as well as a better compatibility with fast PCR program. With inert smart blue contrast dye, the ExcelTaq™ 2X Fast Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, ROX) is ready-to-use and greatly reduces pipetting errors, while largely improving the reproducibility of the process. The ExcelTaq™ 2X Fast Q-PCR Master Mix (SYBR, ROX) also includes ROX reference dye for normalizing the fluorescent reporter signal in real-time quantitative PCR. This master mix allows sensitive, precise amplification, real-time tracking of the amplification process, and simultaneous quantification for targeted DNA molecules.

endo-BCN-PEG12-acid is amonodisperse PEG reagent containing a BCN group and a terminal carboxylic acid. The terminal carboxylic acid can react with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU) to form a stable amide bond. The BCN group enable click chemistry with azide -tagged molecules. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

HL-SAN efficiently removes nucleic acids from buffers typically used in protein purification. Due to its high salt tolerance, it is the obvious choice for host-cell DNA removal in settings where salt is added to reduce aggregation. Especially efficient for removing nucleic acids from proteins with high affinity for DNA and RNA. Proven performance during lysis and early stages of protein purification processes, as well as high-salt eluates. Cold-adapted enzyme with excellent performance also at ambient temperatures and during over-night digestion at 4°C.
Optimum activity at high salt concentration (0.5 M NaCl)
Active at low temperatures (20% at 6ºC)
Easily inactivated
Broad pH range
Temperature stable
Figures
Figure 1. Optimum activity in solutions with high salinity
HL-SAN has optimum activity at ∼0.5 M NaCl, but operates at a broad range of [NaCl] and [KCl]. The activity of HL-SAN was tested in a 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.5, 5 mM MgCl2 with varying [NaCl] or [KCl]. The maximum activity was set to 100%.
Figure 2. Temperature and activity
HL-SAN has optimum activity at ~35°C, but works over a broad temperature range (20% activity at 10°C and 50°C). The activity of HL-SAN was tested in a 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.5 containing 5 mM MgCl2 and 0.5 M NaCl.
Fig 3. The effect of MgCl2 and MnCl2 concentration on the HL-SAN activity.
The activity of HL-SAN was tested in a 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.5, 0.5 M NaCl and with varying concentrations of MgCl2 or MnCl2. The activity of the sample containing 5 mM MgCl2 was set to 100%.
Figure 4. HL-SAN activity vs pH/[NaCl]
The activity of HL-SAN was tested in a 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer with different pHs and different concentrations of NaCl. All buffers contained 5 mM MgCl2. The nature of the buffer was pH-dependent, but generally the NaCl-optimum was the same in all buffers/pHs. The exception was etanolaminbuffer at pH 9 and pH 9.5 in which the NaCl-optimum was shifted to the left (not shown).
Without NaCl, the specificity towards ssDNA and dsDNA is similar. At 0.5 M NaCl, the activity towards dsDNA increases, while the activity towards ssDNA is unaffected.
Figure 6. HL-SAN digests ssDNA to ~5-13 nt, and dsDNA to ~5-7 nt
The size of the end products from ssDNA varies from ~5-13 nt, while dsDNA is digested to around ~5-7 nt. The size of the end products seems to depend on the DNA sequence. Substrates 1 and 2 were ssDNA with different sequences and substrates 3 and 4 were dsDNA with similar sequences but with a FAM-label at different ends. Substrate 5 was dsDNA with the same sequence as substrate 3 and 4 but with a FAM-label at both ends.
Figure 7. HL-SAN activity decreases with increasing concentrations of glycerol
The activity of HL-SAN was tested in a 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.5 M NaCl and with increasing concentrations of glycerol. The activity of the control not containing glycerol was set to 100%.
Figure 8. The activity of HL-SAN at different concentrations of imidazole
The activity of HL-SAN was tested in a 25 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.5 M NaCl and with varying concentrations of imidazole. The activity of the control not containing imidazole was set to 100%.
