Poly-lysine is a polycation which binds to DNA, red cell membrane and any negatively charged protein. It is typically used as a coating substrate for culture dishes, slides, etc. It enhances electrostatic interaction between negatively charged ions of the cell membrane and the culture surface. When...

Papain is a sulfhydryl protease from Carica papaya latex. (A second protease, chymopapain, and a lysozyme have also been isolated from this same source.) Since native crystalline papain is quite unreactive until acted upon by mild reducing agents such as cysteine or cyanide, it may exist as a...

Cholesterol Esterase is useful for enzymatic determination of total cholesterol when coupled with cholesterol oxidase in clinical analysis. Stored intracellularly as cholesterol esters Reversible enzyme Hydrolyzes and synthesizes fatty acid esters of cholesterol and other sterols Hydrolysis of water...

Calcium Chloride is a salt of calcium and chloride. It behaves as a typical ionic halide, and is solid at room temperature. Calcium chloride is a commonly used reagent in biochemistry. It plays important roles in many biological processes, including signal transduction, muscle contraction, and...

Cholesteryl linoleate was cosonicated with cholesterol to prepare dispersions were prepared to study the cholesterol to phospholipid ratio in red blood cell membrane.It was used as HPLC standard in the analysis of rat liver lipoproteins. The most abundant cholesteryl ester in low density lipoprotein...

Acetic Acid, Glacial is an excellent solvent for many organic compounds. Acetic acid is widely used in manufacturing either as starting material or as a solvent. In the food industry, dilute solutions are used for preparation and preservation. Because acetic acid is a weak acid, it is effective as a...

Deoxycholic Acid Sodium Salt Monohydrate is an anionic biological detergent for the solubilization of membrane-bound proteins. Anionic detergent; useful for extraction of membrane receptors and other plasma membrane proteins and for nuclei isolation. Deoxycholic acid has been used in a modified...

Ethyl acetate is used primarily as a solvent and diluent. Ethyl Acetate is suitable for HPLC, spectrophotometry, environmental testing.

Heparin is a polymer classified as a mucopolysaccharide or a glycosoaminoglycan. It is biosynthesized and stored in mast cells of various mammalian tissues, particularly liver, lung and mucosa. It is made up of repeated disaccharide units consisting of 1,4-linked L-iduronic acid and D-glucosamine....

Gas permeable and non-autoclavable plate sealer.

Folic acid, also known as folate, is a B vitamin that can be found in a variety of fruits and vegetables. It can also be chemically synthesized. Folate, a watersoluble vitamin, helps the body form red blood cells and aids in the formation of genetic material within every body cell. Folic Acid is a...

Formaldehyde is used as bactericidal agent. Formaldehyde is used as an embalming agent due to its ability to crosslink primary amino groups in proteins through a methylene linkage; however, due to its extremely toxic nature it tends to be avoided. Formaldehyde is also used in numerous industrial...
