Dilyx Biotechnologies has launched the Optiresc Protein Aggregate Solubilisation Kit, which helps research scientists to rescue inadvertently aggregated protein samples.
The kit is claimed to save effort and money, as it helps life-science researchers to continue work on protein samples that would otherwise be unusable.
The kit combines systematic solution design with array-based disaggregation screening technology enabling protein researchers to analyse and optimise protein aggregate solubilisation.
Carried out on a small sample of precipitated protein, the kit's results can be scaled up, allowing scientists to quickly rescue large protein preparations.
Protein aggregation is often reversible, allowing screening for the right solution conditions.
The Optiresc experiment delivers insight into protein-sample behaviour, using Dilyx's proprietary Optisol formulation array that allows for systematic analysis by optical light microscopy.
Carried out in 96-well Inspection Plates, the simple pipetting steps can be carried out within 10 minutes and solubilise protein aggregates typically in a matter of minutes.
Dilyx Biotechnologies' Optiresc Protein Aggregate Solubilisation Kit contains enough reagent formulations and Inspection Plates to rescue up to six different protein samples and is offered at $599.
The included Optiresc Reagent Listing helps to identify optimal pH, salt, buffer type, additives and antioxidants that solubilise reversibly aggregated protein samples.
