Gel electrophoresis. The EXQuest spot cutter can excise 600 spots/h with >99.5% accuracy and can accommodate up to 4 96-well, 384-well, and deep-well plates. The cutter can also resolve spots as small as 100-μm diam. Software for 2DE and 1DE analysis is included.Bio-Rad www.bio-rad.com
Proteins. SILAC ID and Quantitation kits allow the identification and relative quantification of proteins in samples that are grown in two different types of media by adding stable, non-radioactive isotopic forms of amino acids. Samples can be fractionated and purified using standard protocols without introduc-ing error into the final analysis. Proteins that are membrane-associated, have posttranslational modifications, or are present at low abundance can be quan-titated.Invitrogen www.invitrogen.com
Array system. The Dimatix Materials Printer (DMP) 2800 system is a com-plete, low-cost solution for high-preci-sion printing of fluids on materials, such as plastic, metal, silicon, and paper. This turnkey, easy-to-use device can be used to produce protein and DNA arrays, cir-cuits, optical lenses, and wearable elec-tronics. The DMP system can deposit 10-pL droplets for printing features as small as 50 μm. The ink-jet printer includes car-tridges that customers can fill with the fluid of their choice.Dimatix www.dimatix.com
Ion trap MS. The 500-MS LC Ion Trap is an LC/MS device that can analyze thermal-ly labile compounds, such as pharmaceu-ticals, metabolites, and pesticides. The SelecTemp feature electronically con-trols the temperature distribution dur-ing an LC run. The enhanced-charge-capacity feature increases sensitivity
and reduces background interferences.Varian www.varianinc.com
Supplies. The Bioscience Catalog in-cludes tools such as western blotting ac-cessories; multi-well, automation-com-patible filtration plates; and laboratory water systems. The catalog also features a technical handbooks section that pro-vides application information, protocols, and troubleshooting guidance.Millipore www.millipore.com
Glycoprotein analysis. Proteome Systems’ GlycomIQ solution, which includes Gly-coSuite software tools, protocols, check-out sample, and columns, is now sold with Agilent’s LC and ion trap mass spec-trometer for automated glycoprotein analysis. The combination opens up gly-coprotein study to nonspecialist labora-tories for automated analyses.Agilent www.agilent.com
