TD4A Low Speed Centrifuge 

Description

This fast screening test kit contains 10 tests with everything needed for accurate results of unsafe lead levels in the field. 

This is a revolutionary product designed to make Lead testing in water safe, easy, and affordable.  This fast screening test kit contains 10 tests with everything needed for accurate results of unsafe lead levels. With reliable results in only 10 minutes, this test kit clearly gives results confirming Lead in water and conforming to the EPA guideline of 15 ppb (µg/L). The kit can test water quality from various sources including faucets, wells (ground water), and home purification systems.

Standards and Regulations for Lead [ACCLPP 2012]

• EPA: Drinking Water: 15ppb
• FDA: Juice: 50ppb
• EPA: Residential Soil: 400 ppm (play areas), 1200 ppm (non-play areas)
• CPSC: Paint: 90ppm
• FDA: Bottled drinking water: 5ppb

High Blood lead levels (i.e., greater than 700ppb) can cause serious health effects, including seizure, coma, and death.  Blood levels as low as 100ppb have been associated with adverse effects on cognitive development, growth, and behavior among children aged 1-5 years.

Sample method:

1. Take a first-draw sample

Immediately after opening a faucet or valve, collect a 250 mL sample. This sample should be from each tap used for consumption.

2. Take a flush sample

If first-draw sample results show elevated lead levels of 5 ppb or higher, collect a flush sample. To do this, ensure water has not been used for between 8 to 18 hours, then collect the sample at 30 seconds.

3. Take sequential samples

If you want to test a lead service line, collect 8 to 10 sequential samples, depending on how far the line is from the tap.

PAX-8 is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors, which are key regulators in early development. This protein plays a role in development of thyroid follicular cells and the expression of thyroid-specific genes, with mutations in the PAX-8 gene linked to thyroid follicular carcinomas, atypical thyroid adenomas, and thyroid dysgenesis. The PAX-8 protein is expressed in simple ovarian inclusion cysts and non-ciliated mucosal cells of the fallopian tubes, but is absent from normal ovarian surface epithelial cells. PAX-8 is also not expressed in normal lung or lung carcinomas. Reports have associated PAX-8 expression with renal carcinoma, nephroblastoma, and seminoma, and have indicated PAX-8 as a useful marker for renal epithelial tumors, ovarian cancer, and for differential diagnoses in lung and neck tumors. Anti-PAX-8 can be useful in determining the primary site of invasive micropapillary carcinomas of ovary from bladder, lung, and breast, when used in adjunct with a panel of organ-specific markers such as uroplakin, mammaglobin, and TTF-1.

Alkyne-PEG2-iodide is a crosslinker containing a propargyl group and an iodine group. The propargyl group can form triazole linkage with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules via copper catalyzed Click Chemistry reactions. Iodine (I) is a very good leaving group for nucleophilic substitution reactions. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. Reagent grade, for research use only.
