How to choose appropriate NADP/NADPH Assay Kit?

NADP (coenzyme II) is the coenzyme of many redox reactions, including NADP+ (oxidation type) and NADPH (reduction type). NADP+ is also involved in biosynthesis reactions, such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis. In animal cells, the oxidation stage of pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is the main source of NADPH.

In this article, for NADP/NADPH Assay Kit, the author chose different brands (BioAssay Systems, Abcam, Biovision) and compared them with Abbkine CheKine™NADP/NADPH Assay Kit (Cat#: KTB1010) from several aspects such as assay principle, detection, sample type and size/price.

Summary:

These brands are the similar in Assay Principle, Detection and Sample type. Prices are different. The price of Abbkine NADP/NADPH Assay Kit (Cat#: KTB1010) is the lowest.

Besides good price, Abbkine NADP/NADPH Assay Kit (Cat#: KTB1010) has other advantages. The detection limit of Abbkine NADP/NADPH Assay Kit is 0.1 µM and linearity up to 4 µM NADP+/NADPH in 96-well plate assay.

The Statement of Strengthening Epidemic Prevention for COVID-19

Dear Colleagues,

The situation for COVID-19’s outbreak in Wuhan is getting improved in the strong supports of our government and caring people all over the world now. We are very lucky that we all are safe at present, while it’s still very important for us to do well protections. We determine to do below provisional measures during the resumption of production until the end of the outbreak in order to ensure the safe of all colleagues and our clients strictly.

The establishment of epidemic prevention group, their works contain procurement of protection materials, temperature detection, virus kill, daily patrol and consults ect;
Purchasing a batch of substance such as medicine alcohol, chlorine disinfectant, medical surgical masks, protective clothing, temperature guns for epidemic prevention;
The offices, production laboratories, warehouses must be disinfected fully after daily work, and all windows must be opened;
The temperature detection is needed before and after daily work for everyone, any person has the temperature over 37.3℃ must be sent to the hospital immediately. Early detection, early isolation, early treatment;
All colleagues must wear mask and the colleagues in production department also must wear protective clothing, gloves, wash and change them frequently;
The new purchased materials must be kept in isolated room first, and transferred into warehouses or production rooms after being thoroughly sprayed and disinfected with 75% medicine alcohol;
The high temperature resistant consumables, such as bottle, pipe, experimental spear, must be sterilized via high heat and pressure, and those consumables don’t resistant to high temperature, such as box, bag, must be thoroughly sprayed and disinfected with 75% medicine alcohol to ensure the safe of products during the production;
During the process of packing box, the inner and outer surface of the box must be sprayed and disinfected with 75% medicine alcohol to ensure the packaging safety;
Cargos should be transported via reliable express company such as S.F. Express, FedEx, DHL to ensure the transportation safety;

How to Select an Antibody&Protein Coupling Kit with Super Cost Performance

1, The common definition of coupling technology

Enzymes, biotin, fluorescent dye, agarose, magnetic beads and other substances which are easy to detect or separate are covalently labeled or conjugated to antibodies, proteins or other small molecular substances by a certain technology.

2, Background of Coupling Technology

Coupling of antibodies, proteins or other small molecules is a necessary step in many types of biological experiments.

For example, in order to detect specific proteins in immunoassays (such as WB/IHC/IF and other immunological experiments), we couple primary antibody or secondary antibody with enzyme, fluorescent dye, etc.

In cell staining (biological imaging) applications, reactive dyes (fluorescent dye) are directly combined with extracellular or intracellular proteins (polypeptides) to produce visible and measurable staining.

Coupling agarose or magnetic beads to proteins or antibodies provides a targeted purification method. For example, the agarose (magnetic beads) coupled antibody used by Abbkine in IP experiments directly saves the use of Protein A/G.

3, Major Disclosure of Coupling Kits of Various Brands (Taking HRP Coupling Kits and Green Fluorescence Coupling Kits as Examples)

HRP Coupling Kits

Brand	Sample types	Contents of the kit	Duration of experiment	Size/Price
Abbkine	Samples contain free amino group	1. Activated HRP conjugates solution 2. HRP labeling solution 3. HRP quencher	3.5-4h	320ug/$100 100ug/$120 3100ug/$140 1mg/$220
Abcam	Samples contain free amino group	1. Activated HRP conjugates solution 2. HRP labeling solution 3. HRP quencher	3.5-4h	30ug/￥$270 100ug/$275 300ug/$330 1mg/$555 5mg/$1887
ThermoFisher	Samples contain free amino group	1. Activated HRP conjugates solution 2. HRP labeling solution 3. HRP quencher 4. Protein A/G Column	overnight+＞2h	300µg/$652

* How does Abbkine HRP coupling kit remove free HRP (molecular weight 40KD) from binding antibody?

Abbkine HRP coupling kit was designed with this in mind. The kit can provide a low level of free HRP at the end of the reaction. Therefore, no filtration step is required, and the termination solution (quencher) provided in the kit will block the reactive groups of free HRP.

* Protein A/G column in Thermofisher brand is used to remove free HRP.

Green fluorescence Coupling Kits

Brand	Sample types	Contents of the kit	Duration of experiment	Size/Price
Abbkine	Samples contain free amino group	1. Activated Green fluorescence conjugates solution 2. labeling solution 3. Purification Column	1.5h	320ug/$120 100ug/$140 3100ug/$160 1mg/$250
Abcam	Samples contain free amino group	1. Activated Green fluorescence conjugates solution 2. labeling solution 3. quencher	0.5-1h	30ug/$265 100ug/$266 300ug/$415 1mg/$645
ThermoFisher	Samples contain free amino group	1. Activated Green fluorescence conjugates solution 2. labeling solution 3. Purification Column	1.5-2h	100µg/$538

* The purpose of the purification column is to separate the unconjugated dye from the coupled product, because the dye is small molecules (molecular weight is about 1KD), and the purification column volume provided by Abbkine is 50KDa, 0.5 ml. The purification column provided by ThermoFisher is also aimed at the purification of antibody (the molecular weight of antibody is about 160KD). If the molecular weight of the protein purified by customers is small or large, they need to equip themselves with appropriate ultrafiltration tubes.

The following recommendations are made for the allocation of ultrafiltration tubes:

The molecular weight of the sample	Ultrafiltration tubes
6<MW<20K	3K
20<MW<60K	10K
60<MW<100K	30K
100<MW<200K	50K
200K<MW	100K

To sum up, which brand of coupling kit would you choose? As the fans of Abbkine, I'd like to summarize the characteristics and advantages of Abbkine LinKine™ products:

Optimized Scheme-Follow the standard experimental procedure and obtain the best activity or fluorescence with excellent pre-activated dye, protein ratio and patented solution formula.
The operation is simple and convenient-the operation can be realized in three steps, and the coupling group is bound to a primary amine site of an antibody or other protein.
Customization-changing molar ratio, reaction buffer, pH value and other parameters can realize different levels of coupling and activity.
High Efficiency Purification-The kit includes a purification column to ensure rapid and effective removal of unreacted dyes and excellent protein/antibody recovery.

* IFKine™antibodies: IFKine™ are series of specially optimized secondary antibodies with improved brightness, photostability and less nonspecific hybridization and background. Donkey host and other species of serum/IgG absorbed make it ideal choice for fluorescence staining, especially in fluorescence multiple labelling.

*IPKine™ antibodies: 25 kD or 50 kD protein detection on Western blots after Immunoprecipitation is often suffered from heavy or light chain blotting contamination. Abbkine’s IPKine™ products could solve these problems and bring you satisfying results with good performance.
