Exosome - Human CD63 Isolation/Detection (from cell culture media)

Category: Products & Services > Beads & Microspheres > Beads for Organelle Isolation

Exosome – Human CD63 Isolation/Detection enables the purification of CD63+ exosomes (also called extracellular vesicles and multi-vesicular bodies) from pre-enriched cell culture samples. These exosomes can then be detected using techniques such as flow cytometry, electron microscopy, or Western blotting. The exosomes must be pre-enriched before isolation. This can be done by ultracentrifugation, or by using the fast and efficient Total Exosome Isolation (from cell culture media) reagent. • Obtain highly pure CD63+ exosomes • "See" your sample during handling • Easily scalable protocol • Detec...

Penicillin-Streptomycin, Liquid

Category: Products & Services > Cell Culture & Transfection Reagents > Antibiotics & Antimycotics

The combination of the antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, respectively. Penicillin was originally purified from the fungi Penicillium and acts by interfering directly with the turnover of the bacteria cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that further alter the cell wall. Streptomycin was originally purified from Streptomyces griseus . Streptomycin acts by binding to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome leading to inhibit...
