| Description | BCIP/NBT (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate/ Nitro Blue Tetrazolium) liquid ready-to-use substrate is a highly active and stable formulation utilized for colorimetric detection of Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) activity in membrane assays. Positive reactions form an intense blue/purple precipitate at BCIP/NBT (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate/ Nitro Blue Tetrazolium) liquid ready-to-use substrate is a highly active and stable formulation utilized for colorimetric detection of Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) activity in membrane assays. Positive reactions form an intense blue/purple precipitate at the site of the reaction. The color develops when AP catalyzes the dephosphorylation of BCIP and converts NBT to insoluble blue/purple NBT formazan. The intense blue/purple precipitate is very stable and resists fading when exposed to light.Product Characteristics BCIP/NBT (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate/ Nitro Blue Tetrazolium) liquid, ready-to-use substrate is a highly active and stable formulation utilized for colorimetric detection of Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) activity in membrane assays. Positive reactions form an intense blue/purple precipitate at the site of the reaction. The color develops when AP catalyzes the dephosphorylation of BCIP and converts NBT to insoluble blue/purple NBT formazan. The intense blue/purple precipitate is very stable and resists fading when exposed to light.Composition & Properties The BCIP/NBT is a liquid, ready-to-use substrate. The solution contains NBT, BCIP and non-toxic stabilizers in an aqueous buffer, pH 9.6. The formulation is free of organic solvents.Working Procedure 1.Allow the solution to reach room temperature prior to use. 2.After the final incubation with the AP-labelled probe, wash the membrane thoroughly in a Tris-Buffered Saline (TBS Buffer) containing 0.1% Tween 20. 3.After the final wash, completely cover the membrane with BCIP/NBT solution and allow the color reaction to develop until optimal signal intensity is reached (usually 5-30 minutes). Incubation time will depend on enzyme activity. A further adjustment of the dilution of the AP probe may be necessary. The formazan deposit may flake off the membrane or background staining of the membrane may occur if the color development is too fast or too slow, respectively. 4.Stop the enzyme reaction by thoroughly washing membrane with deionized water. 5.Dry the membrane and store at room temperature. It is recommended to protect the membrane from light for a permanent record of results.Tips & Tricks Normal appearance of the solution is clear, pale yellow. Discard if solution is turbid or purple. Crystalline precipitate can occur in the product. Do not use phosphate buffers, as inorganic phosphate is a powerful inhibitor of AP. The products are not recommended for immunohistochemical or in situ hybridization techniques.Handling & Storage Store solution at 2-8 °C in the dark. Avoid exposure to light and heat. Re-dispense only into bottles made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), amber color. Dispensing guidelines are available upon request...

HMGB1 is a DNA-binding nuclear protein,Purity:>90%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description: High-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), also known as HMG-1 or amphoterin previously, is a member of the HMGB family consisting of three members, HMGB1, HMGB2, and HMGB3. HMGB1 is a DNA-binding nuclear protein, released actively following cytokine stimulation as well as passively during cell death. It is the prototypic damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecule and has been implicated in several inflammatory disorders. HMGB1 signals via the receptor for advanced glycation end-product (RAGE) and members of the toll-like receptor (TLR) family. The most prominent HMGB1 protein and mRNA expression arthritis are present in pannus regions, where synovial tissue invades articular cartilage and bone. HMGB1 promotes the activity of proteolytic enzymes, and osteoclasts need HMGB1 for functional maturation. As a non-histone nuclear protein, HMGB1 has a dual function. Inside the cell, HMGB1 binds DNA, regulating transcription, and determining chromosomal architecture. Outside the cell, HMGB1 can serve as an alarmin to activate the innate system and mediate a wide range of physiological and pathological responses. Extracellular HMGB1 represents an optimal " necrotic marker" selected by the innate immune system to recognize tissue damage and initiate reparative responses. However, extracellular HMGB1 also acts as a potent pro-inflammatory cytokine that contributes to the pathogenesis of diverse inflammatory and infectious disorders. HMGB1 has been successfully therapeutically targeted in multiple preclinical models of infectious and sterile diseases including arthritis. As shown in studies on patients as well as animal models, HMGB1 can play an important role in the pathogenesis of the rheumatic disease, including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and polymyositis among others. Besides, enhanced postmyocardial infarction remodeling in type 1 diabetes mellitus was partially mediated by HMGB1 activation... Read More |
