Screening of saxitoxin in shellfish samples as low as 50ppb in sample
Saxitoxins (STXs) are naturally occurring alkaloids produced by some marine dinoflagellates and by strains of various species of freshwater cyanobacteria. Saxitoxin is one of the prevalent paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs). It belongs to a family of potent neurotoxins with a molecular weight around 300 Da. Saxitoxin and its derivatives are alkaloids composed of a tetrahydropurine ring system with a highly polar guanidinium group. Due to their significant toxicity, saxitoxins are closely monitored in marine environments where they can accumulate in the food chain during harmful algal blooms (HABs). An action level of 800ppb, or 80ug per 100grams of shellfish, has been established.
Biotin is extensively used in combination with streptavidin in biological assays. Our biotin detection kits have multiple applications in detecting biotin attachment and efficiency of conjugation during biotinylation processes. These kits are perfect for understanding the efficiency of the reaction and free biotin in your solutions that can interfear with Streptavidin-biotin interactions.
Attogene offers three kits to detect and quantify biotin using three different technologies including Lateral Flow, ELISA and Chemical. these kits are accurate and sensitive compared with common instrumental analysis.
Can be used to calculate the amount of biotin in liquid samples including biological samples including biotinylated antibody, free biotin in solution, foods, plasma and serum as needed. Also, can be used to quantify the % biotinylation following standard biotinylation reactions.
Highly Sensitive, rapid, robust screening kit for Biotin Useful for detecting and quantifying biotin in biological samples Adaptable for detecting biotin in food samples
CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a member of the Herpes family of virus and is one of the most common viruses in humans. The virus occurs globally and causes infectious mononucleosis. Most individuals become infected with EBV and develop adaptive immunity, with the majority of adults between the ages of 35 and 40 having been infected. The virus has been implicated as having a primary role in multiple autoimmune diseases, several lymphoproliferative disorders and cancers, particularly Hodgkin’s disease and Burkitt’s lymphoma. Many children become infected with EBV once maternal antibody protection disappears, however these infections usually do not result in symptom development. During adolescence the virus will cause mononucleosis in up to 69% of infections

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.
