Millipore's OxyElisa oxidised protein quantitation kit provides all reagents necessary for quantitative, high throughput detection of modified proteins in cells undergoing oxidative stress
Oxidative stress is a cellular condition particularly relevant to aging and age-related diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and dementia.
The OxyElisa kit, by providing a fast and sensitive assay for oxidation, can help researchers, especially neuroscientists, to understand the mechanism of cellular aging.
As result of oxidative stress, oxygen free radicals and other reactive species introduce carbonyl groups into proteins in the cell.
The OxyElisa kit detects these carbonyl groups, which are hallmarks of the cellular oxidative stress level.
The kit uses a direct labelled monoclonal antibody that is readily detected without a secondary antibody, making the Elisa assay more specific, easier to use, and faster.
OxyElisa users can count on full technical support from Millipore, complemented by a comprehensive offering of reagents and assays for analysing oxidative stress.
Researchers can investigate superoxide dismutase activity, tyrosine nitrosylation, oxidised glutathione, and more.
The OxyElisa kit complements Millipore's more qualitative OxyBlot assay, which detects oxidation of individual proteins after separation on a gel.
