Chromatrap has developed a range of optimised ChIP assay kits for use in areas of genome research including classical qPCR, DNA sequencing and from formaldehyde fixed paraffin embedded samples (FFPE) using either discrete spin columns or dedicated 96-well filter plates.
The simplicity and efficacy of Chromatrap ChIP assays, enabling more IPs from less material, more quickly than traditional methods, has made them popular with a growing number of leading genetics research laboratories worldwide.
The Chromatrap 24 column ChIP-qPCR kit offers a choice of sonication or enzymatic DNA shearing and is available with Protein A or G coupled filters for optimal DNA pull-down. For peace of mind and confidence in method validation, a premium version of the kit that includes positive and negative control antibodiesis now available.
This is especially useful where the target antibody has not been validated in ChIP before, as this can often give unexpected results which are hard to interpret without the use of controls.
