Proteins, Enzymes & ELISA: Explore Protein Analysis Techniques & Applications

Detect antigens or antibodies for a wide range of applications with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). 

Investigate immunology, endocrinology, and conservation biology while monitoring giant panda fertility with ELISA.   

Students collect samples of protein-containing beverages for analysis, then create and test hypotheses around which solutions contain the most or the least protein. 

Through an iterative engineering design process, students measure protein content in foods and design treatment plans for communities suffering from undernutrition. 

Identify the optimal conditions for cellobiase activity by analyzing effects of pH, temperature, substrate concentration, and enzyme concentration on enzymatic activity and reaction rates. 

Extract cellobiase from mushrooms to explore how nature uses enzymes, then investigate the enzyme kinetics associated with the production of cellulosic ethanol using a guided inquiry format. 

Employ protein electrophoresis to study protein structure and function and generate protein profiles from the muscles of distantly and closely related species. 

Use western blotting to identify myosin light chain from hundreds of proteins that comprise the muscle cell extracts of closely and distantly related species.  

Column chromatography is a common method used for separating mixtures of components in a liquid. This kit teaches the basic principles of size exclusion chromatography. 

Take your pGLO transformation lab to the next level and separate or purify the expressed GFP. The bacterial proteome contains thousands of proteins, but only the cloned green fluorescent protein (GFP) glows! 

Equip your lab with quality electrophoresis and blotting equipment including instruments, precast gels, and reagents. 

Visualize, analyze, and archive your results with high-resolution gel imaging systems. 

Conveniently perform the most common chromatographic techniques with our instruments, columns, media, and other chromatography supplies. 

Dive deeper into immunoassay development with this comprehensive range of useful antibody resources to support your research and experiments.

Understand all aspects of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and protein detection, including theory, product selection, protocols, and more. 

Become an expert in western blotting by learning the details of blotting technology,  methods, techniques, and troubleshooting. 

Enrich your lessons and introduce your students to some of the industry’s leading experts.
