Caspase-1 Colorimetric Assay kit

Apoptosis plays a fundamental role in many normal biological processes as well as in several disease states. Apoptosis can be induced by various stimuli that all produce the same end result: systematic and orderly cell death.The inflammasome is a large multiprotein complex whose assembly leads to the activation of caspase-1, which promotes the maturation of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18. The TriboTM Caspase-1 Colorimetric Assay Kits provide a simple and convenient means for assaying the activity of caspases that...

Boron Colorimetric Assay

Boron is an essential micronutrient in plants and is involved in maintaining robust cell walls, cell membranes, and reproductive tissues. Although boron is common in the soil in its natural state as a borate mineral, the amount of boron available to plants is quite small. As a result, boron deficiency is the second most common micronutrient deficiency among crop plants. In order to keep plant boron levels in a healthy range, supplementation to the soil via fertilizers and additives is...

Resazurin Cell Viability Kit

Resazurin Cell Viability Assay provides a homogeneous, fluorescent method for monitoring cell viability. It uses the indicator dye resazurin to measure the metabolic capacity of cells an indicator of cell viability. Viable cells retain the ability to reduce resazurin into resorufin, which is highly fluorescent. Nonviable cells rapidly lose metabolic capacity, do not reduce the indicator dye, and thus do not generate a fluorescent signal. The homogeneous assay procedure involves adding the single reagent directly to cells cultured in a...

Total Aflatoxin Fast ELISA

Aflatoxins are a class of structurally similar mycotoxins produced by Aspergillus species. Currently, 17 different types of aflatoxins have been discovered, including aflatoxins B1 and B2 (produced by A. flavus and A. parasiticus), aflatoxins G1 and G2 (produced by A. parasiticus), and aflatoxins M1 and M2, metabolites of B1 and B2 respectively. Total Aflatoxin, the most common form of aflatoxin originated in naturally contaminated food, has acute toxicity to animals, and has been classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by...

Fast qPCR Master Mix

TriboTM 2x Fast Sybr Green qPCR Master Mix with different ROX levels and package sizes provide a convenient choice suitable for different qPCR instruments. It is a 2x concentrated premix containing Taq DNA polymerase, dNTPs, Mg2+, SYBR Green I dye (detection), ROX reference dye, and PCR buffer components. The proprietary chemical modifications of the enzyme make PCR hot start activation much faster (less than 1 minute) than the normal 10-minute activation in standard real-time qPCR amplifications. This confers a significant...

Tribo™ Human IFN γ ELISA Kit

Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ, also known as type II interferon) is an important immunoregulatory cytokine through its antiviral activity. IFN- γ is produced by a number of cell types under inflammatory conditions, including dendritic epidermal cells, T cells, keratinocytes, peripheral blood T cells, mast cells, neurons, CD8+T cells, macrophages, B cells, neutrophils, NK cells, CD4+T cells, and testicular spermatids. It plays a key role in host defense, and the progression of inflammatory diseases such as autoimmunity and atherosclerosis by exerting anti-viral, anti-proliferative,...

XTT Cell Viability Assay

TribioScience’s XTT Cell Viability Assay Kit is a colorimetric assay to quantify the viable cells with soluble formazan dye. The formation of orange formazan is based on the reduction of yellow tetrazolium salt (XTT) under the facilitation of electron acceptors or electron coupling reagents with mitochondrial oxidoreductases that only existed in the living cells. The orange formazan dye is soluble in the liquid solution, can be directly quantified by measuring the absorbance at 450 nm wavelength. The assay can be...
