Small Protein Analysis Kit

Agilent Technologies Inc. and Caliper Technologies Corp. offer the Protein 50 LabChip® kit for automated sizing and quantitation of small proteins, ranging in size from 5 to 50 kilodaltons. As more and more researchers are choosing a convenient high throughput protein purification strategy based on affinity tag purification and are moving to recombinant proteins, the need to quickly analyze smaller protein is increased significantly. Used together with the Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer, the Protein 50 LabChip kit, featuring Caliper's LabChip technology, enables the automated analysis of 10 protein samples in less than a half hour, providing researchers with the support needed to succeed in disease identification and drug discovery. The Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer is now available with a choice of nine kits, for RNA, DNA, cells and protein analysis, performing analysis at various steps of a molecular biology or biochemistry workflow. The Protein 50 LabChip kit allows for the monitoring of purity or stability of proteins utilized for protein arrays, structural analysis, high-throughput screening or biopharmaceutical production. Each chip enables the automated analysis of 10 protein samples. Protein size, relative or absolute concentration and purity are extracted from the real-time digital data, which is displayed in exportable gel-like image, electropherogram and tabular formats.
