Application

Suitable for
  • hybridization experiments to reduce non-specific binding of labeled probes to the membrane
  • preparation of DNA loading buffer (15% Ficoll®, 0.25% bromophenol blue and 0.25% xylene cyanol FF
  • separation of cells with similar density but different size (PBMC from human peripheral blood, bone marrow and umbilical cord blood)
  • producing density gradients to separate subcellular components
  • vitrification of cell and tissue samples.
  • to compare the effect of different perfusates on Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV).
Used for cell separation and organelle isolation.

Features and Benefits

  • free from DNases, RNases, phosphatases and proteases
  • preserves functional and morphological integrity of the separated cells

Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a compensatory physiological mechanism in the lung that optimizes the matching of ventilation to perfusion and thereby maximizes gas exchange. Historically, HPV has been primarily studied in isolated perfused/ventilated lungs; however, the results of these

Studies on diabetes mellitus have shown that the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/serine threonine kinase (AKT)/forkhead box protein O1 (FoxO1) signaling pathway can regulate insulin secretion by modulating the expression of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1). Therefore, it was hypothesized that the
