News about Epigentek
| Brilliantly Investigate DNA or RNA Stress Damage Oxidative stress damage plays an important role in the etiology and progression of a multitude of human pathologies, including oncologic, cardiovascular, and autoimmune diseases and disorders. Through reactive oxygen species (ROS), oxidative stress can result in cellular damage, enzyme inactivation, and epigenetic impairment of DNA. A better understanding of oxidative stress damage—disease relationships can therefore be beneficial for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. As a consequence, various biomarkers have been identified for oxidative stress damage, with the most well-studied being: oxidized nucleoside derivatives like 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) and 8-hydroxyguanosine (8-OH-G) that are generated by ROS in cellular DNA and RNA, respectively; the ROS hydrogen peroxide (H202) and its catalyzing enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD); and histone H2AX phosphorylation, particularly at serine 139, which manifests during the DNA damage response. Most available methods used to investigate these biomarkers are time-consuming and have low throughput, low accuracy, and high costs. By leveraging its EpiQuik™ technologies, EpiGentek has developed a series of innovative research tools to address those issues. Our comprehensive product suite for oxidative stress damage assessment includes the following features and advantages: - Colorimetric/fluorometric ELISA-based assays with easy-to-follow steps for convenience and speed - Fast procedure - High sensitivity and specificity - Assay flexibility via strip-well microplate format for either manual or high throughput analysis - Simple, reliable, and consistent assay conditions |
| DNA Damage Quantification Kits Detect & Quantify Oxidative DNA Damage (8-OHdG) Directly from DNA A few notable benefits include: - Fast procedure can be completed within 3 hours and 45 minutes - Detection limit can be as low as 1 pg of 8-OHdG - High specificity by detecting only 8-OHdG without cross-reactivity to 8-OHdG analogues - Highly correlated with and close to HPLC or LC-MS analysis - Manual or high throughput capabilities
|
| RNA Damage Quantification Kit Directly Detect Oxidative RNA Damage (8-OhG) Status Using RNA A few notable benefits include: - Fast procedure can be completed within 3 hours - Detection limit can be as low as 2 pg of 8-OhG - High specificity by detecting only 8-OhG within the indicated concentration range of the sample RNA - Uses RNA isolated from cells or tissues, no need for RNA digestion or hydrolysis - Manual or high throughput capabilities
|
| Cell/Tissue Extract Oxidative Stress Damage Assays Fast & Sensitive DNA Damage Measurement from Various Cells or Tissues A few notable benefits include: - Fast, easy-to-follow ELISA-like kits - High sensitivity for detection from small input amounts - Measurement from various samples - Manual or high throughput capabilities
|
| In-Situ Oxidative Stress Damage Kits Detect DNA Damage In-Situ from Various Samples A few notable benefits include: - Fast, easy-to-follow ELISA-like kits - High sensitivity for detection from small input amounts - Measurement from various samples - Manual or high throughput capabilities
