Porvair Sciences has claimed its Chromatrap chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay is in growing demand from academic groups and biopharmaceutical organisations.
Professor Steve Conlan, head of molecular and cell biology at Swansea University said: “Chromatrap streamlines the complicated experimental procedure associated with chromatin-IP, making it a much quicker and user-friendly assay.
“Using this kit we obtain much more consistent data, and can use much less input sample. We have made a permanent switch to using Chromatrap for all our cell line and primary cell based assays.” Research assistant, Dr Helen Whiteland added: “I like the ease of use and quick method allowing me to analyse my data in the same day.”
Stephen Knight, Porvair Sciences sales and marketing director said: “An expanding number of proven application solutions and the introduction of the Chromatrap 96 HT solid-state ChIP high throughput platform has enabled us to more than double the number of research groups using ChromaTrap assay technology during the last 12 months.”
