CELL-BASED ASSAYS

Colony Formation Assays

Tumor Cell / Soft Agar Assays


Transformation of normal cells into neoplastic cells results in a population capable of proliferating independently of internal and external signals that normally restrain growth. The
soft agar colony formation assay has traditionally been used to monitor anchorageindependent growth, employing 3-4 weeks of cell growth followed by manual cell counting.
We have advanced the soft agar assay to eliminate tedious manual cell counting, allow
high-throughput drug screening, and enable recovery of transformed cells for downstream
analysis. These advances have also allowed us to develop a unique kit for the separation
of clonogenic cancer cells from normal cells in heterogeneous solid tumors.

CytoSelect 96-Well Cell Transformation AssayTraditional


Soft Agar Colony Formation
Our CytoSelect 96-Well Cell Transformation Assay
(Soft Agar Colony Formation) is suitable for measuring malignant transformation where no downstream
analysis is required. Transformed cells cannot be recovered; however, no manual cell counting is required.

Fast Results: 6-8 days vs. 21 days


Plate Reader Convenience: Eliminates manual
counting
Versatile Format: Designed for 96-well throughput, but can be adapted for 48, 24, 12 or 6-well

With this assay, cells are incubated in a semisolid


agar medium for 6-8 days, then solubilized, lysed and
detected using CyQuant GR dye in a fluorometric
plate reader.

CytoSelect Clonogenic Tumor Cell Isolation Kit


Clean separation of clonogenic tumor cells from normal cells is critical for proper analysis of disease state
progression. Due to the heterogeneity of many tumors, however, isolation of homogenous tumor cell
populations can be difficult.
The CytoSelect Clonogenic Tumor Cell Isolation Kit
uses a proprietary semisolid agar medium to facilitate
colony formation by cells from solid tumors.
Colonies are grown in either a 6-well plate or a 35
mm dish. The colonies are then isolated away from
single cells by size filtration.

Efficient: Easily eliminates single cells from


clonogenic tumor cell population
Versatile: In addition to solid tumors, has
potential use in isolating tumor stem cells

Radius Cell Migration Assays (2D Gap Closure)


Radius Cell Migration Assays provide a unique alternative to the traditional Boyden Chamber migration
assay. Radius assays allow you to measure cell migration at endpoint or in real time, and are ideal for
time course migration studies.
Radius Cell Migration Assays use a cell culture
plate containing a proprietary, carefully-defined biocompatible hydrogel (Radius gel) spot centralized
at the bottom of each well. Cells seeded in the well
will attach everywhere except on the Radius gel spot,
creating a cell-free zone. Once cells attach, the Radius gel is removed and migration of cells across the
cell-free zone begins. The gel removal step allows
synchronization of a zero time point to facilitate wellto-well comparisons.
With Radius Cell Migration Assays, there are no
cell culture inserts; so you dont need to worry about
which pore size to choose for your cell type. Any adherent cell may be used in the assay.
Radius assays are supplied in 24-well, 96-well and
384-well formats. In addition, the 24-well assays are
provided with your choice of coatings for proper cell
attachment:

Uncoated
Collagen I-coated
Fibronectin-coated
Laminin-coated
ECM Array with 6 wells of each of the above
(uncoated, Collagen I, Fibronectin, Laminin); ideal

CytoSelect Cell Migration and Invasion Assays (Boyden Chamber)


The Boyden Chamber has been extensively used and
widely published as a tool for measuring cell migration and cell invasion in vitro. Our CytoSelect Cell
Migration and Invasion Assays use this well-cited
method to quantify cell migration and invasion with no
manual cell counting required. Migratory or invasive
cells are quantified using a colorimetric or fluorometric
plate reader.
Cell migration may take on various forms and behaviors depending on the type and location of cells. Such
subclasses of cell migration include chemotaxis, haptotaxis, and transmigration. Use the chart below to
compare the various subclasses of cell migration as
well as cell invasion, which will help you choose the
assay best suited to your experimental goals.

Cell Migration / Invasion

CytoSelect Cell Migration AssaysHaptotaxis


Haptotaxis describes the migration of cells toward a
gradient of immobilized extracellular matrix. The
CytoSelect Cell Haptotaxis Assays are ideal for
determining the migratory properties of cells. The
kits utilize polycarbonate membrane inserts with an
8 m pore size in a 24-well plate.
The undersides of the inserts are coated with either
Collagen or Fibronectin. The 8 m pore size in the
membrane inserts is ideal for epithelial cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and other cells of similar
size. The membrane serves as a barrier that allows
discrimination of migratory cells from non-migratory
cells.

Fast Results: Visualize cell haptotaxis in


less than 6 hours with most cell types
Convenient: Membrane inserts pre-coated
on the underside with either Collagen I or
Fibronectin
Versatile: Useful with a variety of cell types
including epithelial cells, endothelial cells,
and fibroblasts*
*For leukocyte migration a 3 m pore size is recommended.
See our CytoSelect Cell Migration Assays (previous page)
or the Leukocyte Transmigration Assay (next page).

CytoSelect Cell Invasion Assays


Tumor cell invasion into surrounding normal tissue
contributes to the morbidity of cancers. The CytoSelect Cell Invasion Assays use precoated inserts to
assay invasive properties of tumor cells in 24-well or
96-well plates. The coated layer serves to distinguish
invasive cells from non-invasive cells. Plates are precoated with either basement membrane matrix (from
EHS mouse sarcoma cells), Collagen I or Laminin I.

Quantitative: Measure results in a colorimetric or fluorescence plate reader


Flexible: Uniform protein matrix layer of your
choice of basement membrane (from mouse
tumor cells), Collagen I, or Laminin I
Versatile: Characterize both the invasive and
migratory properties of your cells with a Cell

Cell Migration / Invasion

CytoSelect 24-Well Wound Healing / Cell Migration Assay


Wound healing assays are useful for studying tissue
matrix remodeling, regulation of cytoskeletal structure, and cell proliferation and migration rates of different cells and culture conditions. Traditional wound
healing assays are performed by making a scratch
across a confluent cell monolayer to create an open
gap, mimicking a wound. Such scratch assays,
however, lack a consistently defined wound area
and result in high inter-sample variation.

Highly Accurate: More consistent results well-towell compared to homemade scratch assays
Versatile: Measure cell migration, cell proliferation, and wound closure
Inert Material: No residues from inserts to impede
cell migration or proliferation

Percent Wound Closure

Our CytoSelect 24-Well Wound Healing Assay


provides a more consistent method to measure cell
migration across a wound field gap in vitro. Proprietary treated inserts generate a consistently defined 0.9mm gap between the cells. Cells can then
be treated and monitored for proliferation or migration across the wound field by imaging samples at
fixed time points or time-lapse microscopy.

and is not amenable to high throughput.
CytoSelect 96-Well Phagocytosis Assays are more
accurate, high-throughput alternatives to the standard

Endothelial Tube Formation (In Vitro Angiogenesis) Assay


For angiogenesis to occur, endothelial cells must escape their stable location and break through the basement membrane. Cells migrate toward an angiogenic stimulus that may be released from nearby tumor
cells. These cells proliferate to form new blood vessels.
Our Endothelial Tube Formation Assay provides
an easy, robust system to assess angiogenesis
in vitro. The assay uses an ECM gel matrix derived from mouse sarcoma cells; this matrix very

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

iPS Cell Reprogramming


Reprogramming of adult cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) has provided an important new vehicle to facilitate stem cell research. Recent studies have shown that this
may be accomplished by the introduction of key genes into somatic cells by transduction
with various viral vectors or transfection of plasmids.
Retroviral and lentiviral vectors appear to achieve among the highest levels of efficiency of
iPS cell generation. We offer an extensive collection of vectors for iPS cell reprogramming.

Retroviral Vectors and Packaging Cells for iPS Cell Generation


Our iPS retroviral vectors are constructed from the pMXs vector backbone developed by Dr. Toshio Kitamura at
the University of Tokyo.* Each vector contains one of 6 factors shown to help reprogram adult fibroblasts into
iPS cells. Both human and mouse genes are available individually or in sets. Separate retroviral vectors are
available for p53 shRNA, which has been shown to potentially increase the efficiency of iPS cell generation.
Platinum Retroviral Packaging Cells provide an easy way to produce high-titer retroviruses from these stem cell
plasmids. For additional information on these cell lines please see page 61.

Lentiviral Polycistronic Vector for iPS Cell Generation


Our pLentG-KOSM Lentiviral Vector provides a convenient way to generate iPS cells. The defined stem
cells factors Klf4, Oct-3/4, Sox2 and c-Myc are inframe fused into a single open reading frame (ORF)
by self-cleaving 2A peptides. The four genes are controlled by a single CMV promoter. The transcription
factor ORF is followed by IRES-GFP as a reporter to
verify viral transduction into your target cell. Efficiencies of iPS generation are typically higher compared
to transduction of four separate viruses each containing a single gene.
p53 shRNA has recently been shown to potentially
increase efficiency of iPS production. Our p53 shRNA
lentiviral vector may be transduced along with the
pLentG-KOSM vector.

Expression of Stem Cell Factors and GFP. Top: Transient expression of KOSM fusion gene in 293T cells confirmed by Western
blot. Bottom: GFP fluorescence in MEF cells 3 days after infection

More Efficient: Up to 10-fold higher efficiency


compared to multi-virus transduction, and 500-fold
compared to non-viral methods
Reporter Convenience: Includes GFP reporter
gene to monitor lentiviral transduction

Retroviral Expression Systems

Platinum Retroviral Expression Systems for Stem Cells


Retroviral vectors are useful for delivering genes of interest into a host cell where integration into the genome is
desired. However, traditional retroviral expression technologies usually result in low viral titers which make gene
expression studies difficult.
Our Platinum Retroviral Expression Systems incorporate superior packaging cell lines and vector technologies to produce high-titer virus with a single plasmid
transfection. The Platinum Expression Systems include one of our exclusive Platinum Packaging Cell
Lines which already contain the gag and pol genes;
the Ecotropic and Amphotropic cells also contain an
envelope protein. Simply clone your gene of interest
into the vector provided and transfect into the Platinum cells. If you choose a Pantropic system, simply
co-transfect with the VSV-G plasmid provided.
The Platinum Expression Systems below are specially designed for superior expression with either ES/
EC cells or hematopoietic stem cells. For more information on our Platinum Expression Systems for a
variety of cells, please see page 60.

Feeder Cells

STEM CELL RESEARCH

Stem Cell Feeders


Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is useful for maintaining the undifferentiated state of
mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells. However, LIF does not have the same effect on human embryonic stem (hES) cells. Therefore, hES cells require the use of feeder cells for
both derivation and maintenance. We offer a variety of feeder cells for stem cell culture.
All feeder cells must be mitotically inactivated prior to use.

SNL 76/7 Passage-Independent Feeder Cells for iPS Culture


The SNL 76/7 is an immortalized cell line derived
from mouse fibroblast STO cells which have been
transformed with murine LIF and neomycin resistance
genes.
Superior Culture: Transformed with LIF gene
for better maintenance of undifferentiated state
Versatile: Useful for culture of human and
mouse iPS cells and as a feeder for ES cells
Passage-Independent: Immortalized cell line

Colony Formation Assays

CytoSelect 96-Well Hematopoietic Colony Forming Cell Assay


Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), when cultured in a
suitable semisolid matrix such as methylcellulose
supplemented with cytokines & nutrients, proliferate
to form discrete cell clusters or colonies. Such HSCs
or hematopoietic progenitors are known as colonyforming cells (CFCs).
In classic CFC assays, cells are cultured in a 35mm
dish for 14-21 days so the colonies can reach a certain size for manual counting, which can be tedious
and subjective.
The CytoSelect 96-Well Hematopoietic Colony
Forming Cell Assay provides a high-throughput
method to quantify CFCs in just 7-10 days with no
manual cell counting required. Cells are lysed, solubilized, and quantified using a fluorescent dye included in the kit. Alternatively, cells may be recovered for further culture and analysis.
Fast Results: 7-10 days vs. 2-3 weeks
Plate Reader Convenience: Eliminates manual
counting
Easier Reagent Handling: Methylcellulose media
can be handled using a pipet instead of a syringe
Assay Principle for the CytoSelect 96-Well Hematopoietic
Colony Forming Cell Assay.

HSC Colony Formation. Human bone marrow derived CD34+ Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells were seeded at 3000 cells/well and cultured
for 7-10 days in the absence or presence of growth factors/cytokines. Colonies were quantified according to the assay protocol. A: After 7
days without cytokines. B: After 7 days in presence of cytokines. C: After 10 days in presence of cytokines (hemoglobin visible).

AAV Helper Free Systems


Production of recombinant AAV requires certain
genes from the adenovirus genome, which means
that an adenovirus usually needs to be present. The
AAV Helper Free System eliminates the need for a
helper adenovirus. Most of the required adenoviral
genes (E2A, E4 and VA RNA) are provided in a
pHelper plasmid, while the required E1 gene is provided by the 293 packaging cells.

Safer: pHelper plasmid eliminates the need for a


helper virus
Flexible: Packaging vectors and expression vectors available separately or as one complete system
Control Vectors: GFP, Cre or LacZ

ViraBind AAV Purification Kits


Purification of AAV via ultracentrifugation can be tedious and time-consuming, and may result in low yields.
ViraBind AAV Purification Kits use a one-step proprietary matrix followed by further purification and concentration using a centrifugal concentrator. The result is a higher AAV yield with high purity in a fraction of the time.
Kits are suitable for AAV-2 or AAV-DJ; they will not work with other AAV serotypes.
High Purity: No contamination bands as seen
on SDS gel
Fast Results: Obtain purified virus in about 3
hours
High Yields: Recovery rate >60%

ViraDuctin AAV Transduction Reagent


Successful gene expression studies using AAV depend on high transduction efficiencies into host cells. Infection
rates appear to be highest in S-phase cells, which can account for a very small fraction of a cell population.
Our ViraDuctin AAV Transduction Reagent can
significantly increase the transduction efficiency of
AAV vectors in both dividing and non-dividing cells.
Increases are greatest in non-dividing cells, but even
cells in S-phase show a noticeable increase in transduction efficiencies.

Higher Efficiencies: Significantly increase rate of


infection of host cells
Low Toxicity: No noticeable effect on cell viability
Universal: Suitable for use with both dividing and
non-dividing cells

Adenoviral Expression

VIRAL EXPRESSION

Adenoviral Expression Kits & Reagents


Recombinant adenoviruses are excellent tools for introducing genetic material into host
cells, since they can infect a variety of mammalian cell types with high efficiency. They remain epichromosal upon infection, so they are only suitable for transient gene expression.
We offer a complete workflow solution to your adenoviral expression studies:

RAPAd Adenoviral Expression Systems


Adenoviruses are useful for delivering genes into a
wide variety of cell types, but traditional recombination methods take several months and require tedious
plaque purification. Recent technologies have shortened the time required but still produce relatively high
levels of replication-competent plaques.
RAPAd Adenoviral Expression Systems produce
recombinant adenovirus in about 2 weeks with a
substantial reduction in wild-type adenovirus. The
systems use a backbone vector from which the 5
ITR, packaging signal and E1 sequences have been
removed. Additionally, serial amplification of the recombinant adenovirus does not increase the level of
replication-competent adenovirus.
Virtually No Wild-Type Virus: Backbone vector
engineered to produce <300 wild-type plaques per
109 particles, compared with 104-106 WT plaques
per 109 VP with most other methods
Faster Production: Virus generated in 2 weeks
compared to a few months with traditional methods
5 Complete Systems: Choose CMV or RSV as
your promoter for gene expression, EF-1 for miRNA
expression, or clone your own promoter along with
your gene of interest for maximum versatility

complete system to functionally titer virus infectivity
with greater accuracy in a fraction of the time. The
assays may be used with any adenovirus system that
can amplify in 293 cells. Assays are available for ICC
staining or 96-well ELISA.
For a quick test of physical titer, our QuickTiter
Adenovirus Quantitation Kit measures the concentration of your adenovirus prep in about one hour.

ViraDuctin Adenovirus Transduction Reagent, CAR-Independent


Adenovirus infection of target cells is mediated
largely by the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor
(CAR). Generally adenoviral transduction of many
immortalized cell lines proceeds with a high level of
efficiency. However, in many primary cells this receptor is either absent or present at extremely lowlevels. This can reduce the efficiency of adenovirus
transduction into your cell of choice.

Higher Transduction Efficiency: Up to 12-fold


increase in adenoviral uptake
User-Friendly: Short incubation step prior to
host cell infection
Versatile: Ideal for target cells expressing little
or no CAR, but may also improve transduction
efficiency for CAR-expressing cells

VIRAL EXPRESSION

Lentiviral Expression

QuickTiter Lentivirus Titer / Quantitation Kits


Measuring lentiviral titer is important prior to infection
of your target cells, and one of the most published
methods is the p24 ELISA. Our traditional p24 ELISA
kits provide a quick, convenient way to quantify the
concentration of your lentivirus. Individual kits are
available to measure either HIV-1 or FIV concentrations.
One disadvantage of using a traditional p24 ELISA to
quantify lentivirus is the overexpression of p24 during
lentiviral packaging. Free p24 protein may account for
a substantial portion of total p24 in lentiviral supernatant. The traditional p24 ELISA detects both virusassociated p24 and free p24 generated by 293T cells
during transient transfection. Our QuickTiter Lentivirus Titer Kit minimizes the overestimation of p24 in
lentivirus supernatant. Our proprietary technology
separates the lentivirus-associated p24 from free p24
protein prior to performing the ELISA.
If you need a very quick estimate of your lentiviral
concentration, try the QuickTiter Lentivirus Quantitation Kit. This kit specifically measures the viral nucleic acid content of purified virus or unpurified viral
supernatant. This method is ideal for a quick measurement of viral titer, either before or after purification
of your lentivirus.

More Accurate: Exclusive technology in QuickTiter Lentivirus Titer Kit minimizes overestimation of virus titer
User-Friendly: Read results on a standard
microplate reader

Assay Principle for the QuickTiter Lentivirus Titer Kit. Lentivirus particles are packaged with p24 protein, but additional free
p24 protein is present in viral supernatant. A traditional p24 ELISA
detects both sources of p24 which overestimates viral titer. The
QuickTiter Lentivirus Titer Kit uses technology to pull the virus
out of solution prior to quantitation for a more accurate viral titer.

ViraBind Lentivirus Concentration & Purification Kits


Ultracentrifugation methods used for lentiviral supernatants are tedious and time-consuming and usually
only partially purify your virus. Alternatively, filterbased methods have low sample capacity and do
not substantially concentrate the virus.
ViraBind Lentivirus Concentration and Purification
Kits produce purified lentivirus with extremely high
titer without the need for ultracentrifugation. The virus
is pelleted from solution using our proprietary isolation technology, then resuspended in a smaller volume. The resuspended lentivirus is then applied to
either a purification column or a dialysis device for
purification. If desired, the purified virus may be further concentrated using a centrifugal concentrator.

Fast: Obtain purified virus in about 4-6 hours


with column-based kits and 10-24 hours with
dialysis-based kits
High Titer: Concentrate up to 500-fold to as
high as 108-1010 TU/ml, sufficient for in vivo
studies
High Yield: Recover >60%

Our Retroviral Expression Vectors contain multiple
cloning sites (MCS) to allow easy introduction of your
gene of interest. The vectors are based on backbones
derived from Moloney murine leukemia virus (MMLV).
We offer the traditional pBABE system and the newer
pMXs system, which has been shown to be useful in
induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS) studies. pMYs vectors are optimal for use with hematopoietic stem cells,
and pMCs vectors are optimal for ES and EC cells.
All cloning vectors are supplied as 10 g in TE buffer.

packaging recombinant retrovirus. Our 293RTV cells
are derived from the 293 parental cell line, but are
selected for firmer attachment to culture plates, faster
growth and higher yields of retrovirus produced.

VIRAL EXPRESSION

Retroviral Expression

Platinum Retroviral Expression Systems


Retroviral vectors are useful for delivering genes of
interest into a host cell where integration into the genome is desired. However, traditional retroviral expression technologies usually result in low viral titers,
making gene expression studies difficult. This is
mainly due to poor expression of retroviral structure
proteins (e.g. gag, pol, and env) in the cells.
Our Platinum Retroviral Expression Systems incorporate superior packaging cell lines and vector technologies to produce high-titer virus with a single plasmid
transfection. Each Platinum Expression System includes one of our exclusive Platinum Packaging Cell
Lines which stably express the gag and pol genes. In
the Ecotropic and Amphotropic systems, the packaging cells also express the envelope protein.* Simply
clone your gene of interest into the vector provided
and transfect into the Platinum cells.
*Pantropic systems require co-transfection with VSVG
envelope vector.

Higher Viral Yields: Average titer 107 infectious


units/mL with transient transfection
Longer Stability: Expression up to 4 months in the
presence of drug selection
Optimized Systems: 3 packaging cell lines for infection of various species; 3 vector backbones (two
specifically for infection of stem cells)
Flexible: Order complete systems or cells and vectors separately

Platinum Retroviral Packaging Cell Lines


Generate high titers of recombinant retrovirus with a
single plasmid transfection* using these extremely
powerful, stable cell lines. Platinum Retroviral Packaging Cells are based on the 293T cell line and exhibit
greater stability and produce higher yields of retroviral
structure proteins, resulting in higher retroviral titers.
The Platinum cell lines were invented in the laboratory
of Dr. Toshio Kitamura at the University of Tokyo and
are available exclusively from Cell Biolabs. They were
first described in the following paper:
Morita, S. et al. (2000). Gene Therapy 7:1063-1066.

is pelleted from solution using our proprietary isolation technology, then resuspended in a smaller volume. The resuspended retrovirus is then applied to
either a purification column or a dialysis device for
purification. If desired, the purified virus may be further concentrated using a centrifugal concentrator.

Fast: Obtain purified virus in about 4-6 hours


High Titer: Concentrate 500-fold to 109-1010

ViraDuctin Retrovirus Transduction Kit


The efficiency of retrovirus transduction can be low compared to other viruses. The rate at which retroviral vectors bind to cells is controlled mostly by diffusion. Additionally, the presence of transduction inhibitors such as
proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans in retroviral supernatants can lead to poor gene transfer. Additives such
as Polybrene can boost transduction efficiencies, but they do not eliminate these transduction inhibitors.
Our ViraDuctin Retrovirus Transduction Kit provides superior transduction efficiencies even when
compared to transductions in the presence of Polybrene. A proprietary reagent cocktail forms a supercomplex with the retrovirus which is pelleted away
from the supernatant, removing detrimental transduction inhibitors that decrease infection efficiency.
Polybrene is a registered trademark of Abbott Laboratories.

More Robust: Removes harmful transduction


inhibitors from retroviral supernatant
Higher Transduction Efficiencies: Compared
to infections in the presence of Polybrene or no
additives

miRNASelect Expression and Control Vectors


Our miRNASelect Mammalian Expression Vectors
provide an easy, efficient method to clone a miRNA
precursor from any species. The desired miRNA sequence is cloned into a human -globin intron contained within the vector. Two vector formats are available:

The pEP vector contains a puromycin selection


marker
The pEGP vector contains a GFP-puromycin fusion to allow selection by either marker

Each expression vector is provided with a null


(empty) control vector at no extra charge. Null control
vectors are also sold separately for use with vectors
from our miRNASelect Precursor Clone Collection.

miRNASelect Functional Analysis Reporter System


The miRNASelect Functional Analysis Reporter
System provides a simple method for the evaluation of potential targets of miRNA. Binding of
miRNA sequences to their suspected targets results in repression of translation.
In this system the miRNA target sequence, such
as a 3 UTR, is cloned into the provided pMIRGFP vector in the multiple cloning sites immediately downstream of the GFP gene. If the miRNA
is present and binds to the target sequence, translation is repressed and no green fluorescence appears. If the miRNA does not bind the target sequence, GFP translation occurs normally and
green fluorescence may be seen.

72

Assay Principle.
If miRNA is present and binds to
the 3 UTR, translation of the GFP
gene is repressed,
resulting in loss of
fluorescence.

ANALYSIS

ViraSafe miRNA Lentivirus Expression System


Our ViraSafe Lentiviral Expression Systems provide a much safer method even compared to thirdgeneration lentivirus systems. Sequence homology
has been reduced an additional 80-90%, thereby substantially reducing the risk of replication-competent
lentivirus. Additionally, each vector is provided separately to allow for optimization of vector ratios.

For more information on our complete selection of ViraSafe Lentivirus Expression


Systems for gene expression studies,
please see p. 49-50.

The ViraSafe miRNA Lentivirus Expression System


is specifically designed to express microRNA in your
target cell.
Safer: 80-90% less sequence homology than
3rd-generation lentiviral expression systems;
ecotropic system provides even more safety*
High Titer: Incorporates elements that provide
titers comparable to 3rd-generation systems
Flexible: Vectors provided separately for increased safety and to allow optimization of vector ratios

*Lentiviruses made with a ViraSafe Ecotropic Expression System will only readily infect
mouse and rat cells. Pantropic lentiviruses are VSVG-pseudotyped and may infect cells of
any species.

RAPAd miRNA Adenoviral Expression System


RAPAd Adenoviral Expression Systems produce
recombinant adenovirus with substantial reduction
in wild-type adenovirus, while doing so in a much
shorter 2 week time frame. The systems use a
backbone vector from which the 5 ITR, packaging
signal and E1 sequences have been removed.
Additionally, serial amplification of the recombinant
adenovirus does not increase the level of replication-competent adenovirus.

The RAPAd miRNA Adenoviral Expression System


is specifically designed to deliver miRNA sequences
into your target cell.
Virtually No Wild-Type Virus: Backbone vector
engineered to produce <300 wild-type plaques per
109 particles, compared with 104-106 WT plaques
per 109 VP with most other methods
Faster Virus Production: Virus generated in 2
weeks compared to a few months with traditional
methods

Protein Oxidation

OXIDATIVE STRESS / DAMAGE

Assays and Reagents for Oxidative Protein Damage


Cellular proteins are subject to damage in the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
The resulting protein damage may take the form of nitration or oxidation of various amino
acid residues, or may result in formation of advanced glycation end products (AGE) or advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP). We have developed unique assays to detect
protein damage with higher sensitivity and more user-friendly protocols.

OxiSelect Nitrotyrosine Assay Kits and Antibodies


Our OxiSelect Nitrotyrosine Assay Kits provide a
simple method to measure the formation of 3nitrotyrosine in proteins. This assay is available in two
formats: a 96-well competitive ELISA and an immunoblot kit. The ELISA format can detect the presence of 3-nitrotyrosine as low as 10 nM.

atherosclerosis, diabetes, aging and renal disease.
Our OxiSelect AGE ELISA Kit is designed for the
rapid detection of generic advanced glycation end
product protein adducts. For more specific detection,
we offer assays for N-epsilon-carboxymethyl lysine
(CML), N-epsilon-carboxyethyl lysine (CEL), and

Oxidized LDL

OXIDATIVE STRESS / DAMAGE

OxiSelect Human Oxidized LDL ELISA


Low density lipoprotein (LDL) contains a hydrophobic
core of various lipids surrounded by one molecule of
Apolipoprotein B-100 (ApoB-100), which promotes
solubility of the LDL in blood. LDL is often described
as bad cholesterol, but it is even more dangerous in
the human body when it becomes oxidized. Oxidized
LDL (OxLDL) is more reactive with surrounding tissues and can collect within the inner lining of arteries.
The majority of oxidized residues in LDL are
malondialdehyde (MDA) adducts.

Sensitive: Detect as little as 50 ng/mL


Quantitative: Compare unknown samples with
provided copper oxidized LDL standard

Our OxiSelect Human Oxidized LDL ELISA Kit is

OXIDATIVE STRESS / DAMAGE

DNA / RNA Damage & Repair

Assays for DNA & RNA Damage and Repair


DNA is arguably the most biologically significant target of oxidative and cellular stress.
Continuous DNA damage has been implicated in age-related development of various cancers. More recently, RNA damage has been described in conjunction with various neurological diseases including Alzheimers and Parkinsons diseases. We offer a wide range of
assays to measure the most common types of DNA and RNA damage in cells.

OxiSelect Oxidative DNA / RNA Damage ELISA Kits


(8-OHdG or 8-OHG Quantitation)
Among numerous types of oxidative DNA damage, 8
-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is a ubiquitous
marker of oxidative stress. 8-OHdG, one of the byproducts of DNA oxidative damage, is physiologically formed and enhanced by chemical carcinogens.
Our OxiSelect Oxidative DNA Damage ELISA Kit
provides a powerful method for rapid quantitation of
8-OHdG in DNA samples. The OxiSelect Oxidative RNA Damage ELISA Kit uses the same assay
principle, but is useful for measuring 8-OHG formation, the primary marker for RNA oxidation.

Highly Sensitive: Detect as little as 100 pg/


mL of 8-OHdG or 150 pg/mL of 8-OHG
Versatile: Suitable for use with urine, serum,
cerebrospinal fluid, and cell or tissue samples

OxiSelect Comet Assays (Single Cell Gel Electrophoresis)


DNA damage can result from a variety of intracellular and extracellular stimuli, and can manifest in a
variety of mutations to the DNA including base modifications, missing bases and single-stranded or double-stranded breaks.

Versatile: High-level screening tool for DNA


damage from a wide variety of sources
User Friendly: Simple protocol with easy visualization by epifluorescence microscopy

Traditionally the comet assay, or single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE), has been used as a wellpublished, high-level screening tool to measure DNA
damage in single cells.
Our OxiSelect Comet Assay Kits provide a quick,
easy method to screen for DNA damage at a macro
level. Our OxiSelect Comet Assay Slides have
been specially treated for adhesion of low-melting
agarose used in the assay. Damaged DNA moves
farther in electrophoresis than intact DNA, causing a
tail to form upon visualization under a fluorescence
microscope.

OxiSelect DNA Double-Strand Break Assay


Double-strand breaks (DSB) are among the most
dangerous types of DNA damage within cells. An
early cellular response is phosphorylation of the histone variant H2AX at the site of the DSB. This triggers a cascade of events and appears to play a role
in recruitment of repair factors to the damaged sites.
Our OxiSelect DNA Double-Strand Break Staining
Kit provides an easy-to-use method for detecting
DNA breaks. The kit utilizes simple immunofluorescence staining of the phosphorylated histone H2AX.

Global Methylation and Hydroxymethylation ELISA Kits


DNA methylation is an epigenetic change shown to
be associated with nearly every biological process. In
mammalian cells, DNA methylation is found predominantly at CpG dinucleotides; however, in certain
cases such as embryonic stem cells it may also be
found in non-CpG contexts. Due to the important role
of DNA methylation in maintaining genomic stability,
deregulation of DNA methylation is associated with
various diseases including cancer.

Sensitive: Detect as little as 15 nM of 5MedCyd


or 5 ng of hydroxymethylated DNA
Versatile: Suitable for use with any isolated
DNA; 5MedCyd may also be used with urine
samples
Convenient: Quantify on a standard microplate
reader

5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) results from enzymatic conversion of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC); though


its epigenetic functions are still being elucidated, 5hmC has been found to be more abundant in brain
and stem cells. Bisulfite sequencing is unable to distinguish 5-hmC from 5-mC; other methods such as
HPLC or LC/MS can distinguish the two, but such
methods are labor intensive and not always practical.
Our Global DNA Methylation and Hydroxymethylation Assays provide a convenient, accurate way to
quantify 5-methyl-2-deoxycytidine (5MedCyd) and
5-hydroxymethylcytosine respectively. Unknown
samples are compared with a standard provided
with each kit.

Reactive Oxygen Species Assays


Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide and hydrogen peroxide are continually
produced during metabolic processes. Excess ROS can lead to cellular injury in the form of
damaged DNA, lipids and proteins. We offer assays for quantitation of various reactive oxygen species, in both in vitro and intracellular formats.

OxiSelect Intracellular ROS Assay Kit


The OxiSelect Intracellular ROS Assay Kit measures
the activity of hydroxyl, peroxyl, and other reactive oxygen species. The assay uses the cell-permeable fluorogenic probe DCFH-DA, which diffuses into cells and is
deacetylated into the non-fluorescent DCFH. In the
presence of ROS, the DCFH is oxidized into highly
fluorescent DCF. Fluorescence is quantified on a
fluorometric plate reader.

Small GTPase Retroviral Constructs

In addition, we offer sensitive assays to detect cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, both of which
are important regulators in the G-Protein signaling cascade.

Small GTPase Activation Assays


Our Small GTPase Activation Assays use visible agarose beads to selectively pull down the active form of
the target of interest. The precipitated GTPase is then
detected by Western blot using a target specific antibody included in the kit.

Safe: Non-radioactive assay format


Visual Check: Agarose beads can be easily seen
Fast Results: 1 hour plus electrophoresis/blotting

If you are studying more than one small GTPase target, consider one of our Small GTPase Activation
Assay Combo Kits. These combo kits allow you to
measure the following targets at a savings compared
to buying separate kits for each target:

Rac1 and Cdc42


RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42

Visible Agarose Beads Provided


in the Small GTPase Activation
Assays. Beads are easy to visualize, making it easier to avoid potential loss during washes and aspirations.

Active Rac-GEF Assay Kit (Tiam1)
Guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) activate small GTPases by catalyzing the exchange of GDP for
GTP.
Our Active Rac-GEF Assay Kit uses the agarose bead technology of our Small GTPase Activation Assays
(see previous page) to pull down the active form of Rac-GEFs from endogenous lysates or purified samples.
The specific GEF known as Tiam1 is then specifically detected with a polyclonal antibody.

CELL SIGNALING & PROTEIN BIOLOGY Kinase Assays


Rho Kinase (ROCK) Activity Assays
Rho Kinase (ROCK) is a serine/threonine kinase which is a target of Rho. ROCK mediates Rho signaling and
reorganizes the actin cytoskeleton via the phosphorylation of several substrates that contribute to contractility
and the assembly of actin filaments.
Our ROCK Activity Assays provide a non-radioactive
format to measure the level of active ROCK in cell or
tissue lysates. The immunoblot kit provides a convenient format for measuring ROCK activity in a few samples, while the 96-well Activity Assay contains a stripwell plate precoated with MYPT1 for higher throughput.

Kinase Assays CELL SIGNALING & PROTEIN BIOLOGY


Checkpoint Kinase Activity Assays
Checkpoint kinases, including CHK1 and CHK2, can
be activated in response to DNA damage prior to mitosis. These kinases phosphorylate Cdc25C, a protein phosphatase, at Ser-216. This phosphorylation
ultimately leads to cell cycle arrest, preventing mitosis
and avoiding the passage of DNA damage to daughter cells.
Our Checkpoint Kinase Activity Assays allow you to
conveniently measure the activity of CHK1 and
CHK2. The assays use recombinant Cdc25C as a
checkpoint kinase substrate. Phosphorylated
Cdc25C (Ser216) is detected using a phosphospecific antibody. Checkpoint Kinase Activitiy Assays are available in two formats: a Western blot
assay and a 96-well plate-based activity assay.

Human ApoAI and ApoB Duplex ELISA Kit


As the primary protein components of HDL and LDL
respectively, ApoAI and ApoB are arguably the most
significant apolipoproteins in lipid metabolism research.
Our Human ApoAI and ApoB Duplex ELISA Kit provides a convenient tool to quantify both proteins in a
single serum or plasma sample. Unlike other multiplex assays, our ApoAI and ApoB Duplex ELISA
does not require a luminometer for detection. Simply
quantify both proteins sequentially using a standard
colorimetric ELISA plate reader.

Human ApoAI and ApoB Duplex ELISA Kit Assay Principle.


Both ApoAI and ApoB are captured individually from a single serum
or plasma sample. A mixture of primary antibodies is added, followed by a mixture of enzyme conjugates. AP Substrate is added
to quantify ApoAI; followed by the addition of HRP Substrate to
quantify ApoB.
Product Name
Human ApoAI and ApoB Duplex ELISA Kit

Efficient: Quantify two apolipoproteins from the


same sample in just a few hours
Sensitive: Detect as little as 0.1 ng/mL of ApoAI

OxiSelect Human Oxidized LDL ELISA


Low density lipoprotein (LDL) contains a hydrophobic
core of various lipids surrounded by one molecule of
Apolipoprotein B-100 (ApoB-100), which promotes
solubility of the LDL in blood. LDL is often described
as bad cholesterol, but it is even more dangerous in
the human body when it becomes oxidized. Oxidized
LDL (OxLDL) is more reactive with surrounding tissues and can collect within the inner lining of arteries.
The majority of oxidized residues in LDL are
malondialdehyde (MDA) adducts.

Sensitive: Detect as little as 50 ng/mL


Quantitative: Compare unknown samples with
provided copper oxidized LDL standard

Our OxiSelect Human Oxidized LDL ELISA Kit is


designed for the detection and quantitation of MDAmodified LDL in human plasma or serum.

Total Cholesterol Assay Kit
Cholesterol exists within lipoproteins in two forms: a
free alcohol and a fatty cholesteryl ester, which is the
predominant form of cholesterol transport and storage. Our Total Cholesterol Assay Kit is a simple
fluorometric assay that measures the amount of cholesterol in serum, plasma, cell lysates or tissue homogenates. In the presence of cholesterol esterase,
the assay will measure total cholesterol in both forms.
In the absence of the esterase, the assay will measure only free cholesterol.

Our Creatinine Assay Kit is based on the Jaffe reaction between creatinine and alkaline picrate, which
produces an orange-red color complex that can be
easily read by a standard microplate reader at 490
nm. A creatinine standard is provided to allow quantitative measurements of creatinine levels in urine,
serum, cell lysates, and tissue homogenates. The
assay is extremely simple and takes less than one
hour to perform.

OD490nm

Creatinine is a metabolite formed from creatine and


phosphocreatine (p-creatine). Subsequently
creatinine enters the blood and is then excreted by
the kidneys via glomerular filtration. Intra-individual
variation of creatinine levels is <15% daily, making it
a useful marker for normalizing levels of other molecules found in the urine.

INFECTIOUS DISEASE RESEARCH

Bacterial Rapid Detection

Rapid Qualitative E. Coli and Salmonella Tests


Our Rapid Tests for E. coli and Salmonella provide a
quick and easy method for detection of these pathogens in contaminated food samples.
The kits use a convenient strip method that gives a
clear positive or negative result. Samples are enriched overnight in the presence of enrichment medium, then incubated for 10-20 minutes with the test
strip. A control line is provided to ensure the test is
valid.
Example of Positive and Negative Results Using the E. coli or
Salmonella Rapid Test Kit.
