Looking for Cell Counting Kit-8 protocol?

The Cell Counting Kit-8 is a colorimetric assay kit used to measure cell proliferation and cytotoxicity. It is a ready-to-use solution that can be added directly to the cell media for fast, high-throughput screening without a solubilization process obtaining highly reproducible and accurate results.

Cell Counting Kit-8 can be utilized to do cell number counting, cell prolifiration or cytotoxicity assay based on your requirments.  So it make a tiny protocol deferences when you apply different assay, while the majority of  operation protocol are the same. However, Some equipment and materials should be prepared before assay: 1). Plate reader (450 nm filter), 2). 96-well plate, 3). 10 µl, 100-200 µl and multi-channel pipettes.

 

Looking for Cell Counting Kit-8 Protocol ?

More detailed manipulation procedures for Cell number counting and Cell proliferation and cytotoxicity sssays from Abbkine CCK-8 Kit are listed below for your references,

Cell Number Determination Protocol

1) Inoculate cell suspension (100 µl/well) in a 96-well plate. Also prepare wells that contain known numbers of viable cells (to create a calibration curve in step 5). Pre-incubate the plate in a humidified incubator (e.g., at 37 °C, 5% CO2).

2) Thaw the CCK-8 on the bench top or in a water bath at 37 °C if it is frozen. Note: It takes about 30 minutes on the bench top at 25 °C or 5 minutes in a water bath at 37 °C.

3) Add 10 µl of the CCK-8 solution to each well of the plate. Note: Be careful not to introduce bubbles to the wells, since they interfere with the O.D. reading.

4) Incubate the plate for 1-4 hours in the incubator.

5) Measure the absorbance at 450 nm using a microplate reader. Prepare a calibration curve using the data obtained from the wells that contain known numbers of viable cells.

Note: To measure the absorbance later, add 10 µl of 1% w/v SDS to each well, cover the plate and store it with protection from light at room temperature. No absorbance change should be observed for 48 hours.

Cell Proliferation and Cytotoxicity Assay Protocol

1) Dispense 100 µl of cell suspension (5000 cells/ well) in a 96-well plate.

2) Pre-incubate the plate for 24 hours in a humidified incubator (e.g., at 37 °C, 5% CO2).

3) Add 10 µl of various concentrations of toxicant into the culture media in the plate.

4) Incubate the plate for an appropriate length of time (e.g., 6, 12, 24 or 48 hours) in the incubator.

5) Thaw the CCK-8 on the bench top or in a water bath at 37 °C if it is frozen. Note: It takes about 30 minutes on the bench top at 25 °C or 5 minutes in the water bath at 37 °C.

6) Add 10 µl of CCK-8 solution to each well of the plate. Be careful not to introduce bubbles to the wells, since they interfere with the O.D. reading.

7) Incubate the plate for 1-4 hours in the incubator. Measure the absorbance at 450 nm using a microplate reader.

Note: To measure the absorbance later, add 10 µl of 1% w/v SDS to each well, cover the plate and store it with protection from light at room temperature. No absorbance change should be observed for 48 hours.

Be attention to conditions or chemicals that affect dehydrogenase activity in viable cells may cause discrepancy between the actual viable cell number and the cell number determined using the Abbkine CCK-8 assay.

Anti-Nano-Tag9 Monoclonal Antibody(11T3) Review

Choose right VSV-G Tag Antibody?

Epitope tags include VSV-G tag, Myc-tag, HA-tag and NE-tag. These tags are particularly useful for western blotting, immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation experiments, although they also find use in antibody purification.

Choose right VSV-G Tag Antibody?If you’re working in the life sciences with VSV-G tag in your vector or fusion proteins, chances are you’re going to be using right VSV-G antibodies in your research. Here we've set out some top tips to get you started in making a good and suitable VSV-G tag antibody buying decision.

Is this VSV-G antibody suitable for your application?

It's “impossible” to predict which antibodies will work and which will not.  Just because an antibody has been successfully used in one application does not mean it will work for all applications. That means excellent WB and IHC results do not tell you whether the antibody is the right choice for a so-called ChIP-seq experiment, in which chromatin immunoprecipitation is followed by second-generation sequencing.

You must choose application-specific validation of VSV-G antibody you use. However, due to the price and performance, researchers prefer the antibody with more validated applications, especially these kinds of epitope antibodies.

Decision on monoclonal or polyclonal VSV-G tag antibody

Our advice is you should go with the most validated antibody, but if you are lucky enough to have two well validated antibodies to chose between, then polyclonal antibodies tend to be cheaper because they are raised against multiple epitopes on your protein and are therefore less specific. Monoclonal are more expensive and take longer to produce, however they are specific to a single epitope. Monoclonal antibodies are most useful if you are trying to identify specific isoforms or region of a full-length protein, especially in tag fusion detection.

[caption id="attachment_14" align="aligncenter" width="384"]vsv-g-antibdy-if Immunofluorescence staining of VSV-G fusion protein with VSV-G monoclonal antibody (Clone #14D2) in 293 cells with red and counterstained with DAPI.[/caption]

A manufacturer may license their antibody to other companies, so do not buy three antibodies to test without making sure they are actually different. With common monoclonals that are supplied by many companies you might also consider shopping around for the best supplier of a clone.

Finally, remember you should feel free to contact the company supplier for advice any time. The suppliers really should be helpful, many pride themselves on their customer service, and if they are not you can remember that for next time you buy an antibody.

If you are looking for a detection tool to quantify or localize your VSV-G fusion proteins, we highly recommend you to try our featured monoclonal VSV-G Antibody risk free. This antibody with clone number 14D2 can specifically recognizes native and denatured forms of VSV-G fusion proteins, with which can meet your any requirements for Western Blot, Immunofluorescence and Immunoprecipitation assays.

Preparing Cell Counting Kit-8 Solution ?

Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) solution in kit assign very convenient assays by utilizing highlywater-relaxed tetrazolium sailor, WST-8 to produce a water-dissolvable formazan Dyeupon decrease in the person of an electron porter, as shown in below.  WST-8 is educed by dehydrogenases in cells to give a yellowcolored roduct (formazan), which is soluble in the membrane civilization medium. The amount of the formazan dye generated by the nimbleness of dehydrogenases in cells is soon relative to the number of ignited cells.

cck8-wst8

"The CCK-8 Kit has been optimized for use." Said Brooke Kilyanek, Technical Manager of Abbkine Scientici. "If you want to buy WST-8 and 1-methoxy-PMS, and then mix the two regents  together to Cell counting kit-8 solution for cell proliferation assays yourselves. This is also certainly an option, but the best protocol to use is ultimately up to the researcher. "

Cell Counting Kit-8 is a one-deadman solution, and no mixing of components is required, which is totally differently from other commercial player in the market, such as WST-8 Kit. WST-8 Kit is normal made from two solution components. One component is an electron carrier for NADH-tetrazolium, which is 1-methoxy-PMS in most cases. And another component is WST-8 solution with proper reaction buffer.  While Cell Counting Kit-8 featured only one optimized solution component, which is nonradioactive, allot sensitive colorimetric assays for the purpose of the reckon of viable cells proliferation and cytotoxicity risk.

Since the CCK-8 solution is very stable and it has weak cytotoxicity, a longer incubation, such as 24 to 48 hours, is possible. We highly suggest you purchase bulk size of Cell Counting Kit-8 if you're willing to prepare CCK-8 solutions yourself. Since this will not only saving your time and cost, but also ensuring you reliability of cell research. Believe me, high quanlity branded CCK-8 allows you archieve colorimetric assays for the determination of the number of viable cells in the proliferation and cytotoxicity assays with high performance and high throughput.

How to Choose right Cell Counting Kit-8 product

Choosing a cell viability or cytotoxicity assay from among the many different options available can be a challenging task. Picking the best assay format to suit particular needs requires an understanding of what each assay is measuring as an endpoint, of how the measurement correlates with cell viability, and of what the limitations of the assay chemistries are.

Cell Counting Kit-8 allows sensitive colorimetric assays for the determination of the number of viable cells in the proliferation and cytotoxicity assays. CCK-8 highly water-soluble tetrazolium salt, WST-8, is reduced by dehydrogenase activities in cells to give a yellow-color formazan dye, which is soluble in the tissue culture media. Cell Counting Kit-8 is a one-bottle solution; no premixing of components is required. Cell Counting Kit-8, being nonradioactive, allow sensitive colorimetric assays for the determination of the number of viable cells n cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays.

AmCyan Sequence

AmCyan is a cyan fluorescent protein designed from Clontech (Now part of Takara). The living color protein was isolated from the coral reef organism Anemonia majano. Cyan fluorescent proteins such as AmCyan1 are ideal for simultaneously detection of two or more events in the same cell or cell population, because their excitation and emission spectra are distinct from other fluorescent proteins.

The AmCyan fluorescent protein sequence has been optimized for translation in mammalian cells with high solubility, bright emission, and rapid chromophore maturation. AmCyan1 can be used as a molecular tag or as a reporter to visualize, track, and quantify cellular processes including protein synthesis and turnover, protein translocation, gene induction, and cell lineage.

AmCyan DNA sequence in pAmCyan vector 

pAmCyan is a pUC19-derived prokaryotic expression vector, which encodes a variant of wildtype Anemonia majano cyan fluorescent protein (AmCyan 1) that has been engineered for brighter fluorescence. Two amino acid substitutions (Asn-34 to Ser; Lys-68 to Met) have been made to enhance the emission characteristics of AmCyan (excitation maximum = 458 nm; emission maximum = 489 nm).

AmCyan Sequence in pAmCyan Vector

As shows above, the sequence of Anemonia majano Cyan fluorescent protein gene is from site 282 to 978. The fist part is Kozak consensus translation initiation site from 282 to 292, and then start codon (ATG) is from 289-291 until stop codon from 976 to 978. You may check for detailed pAmCyan vector sequence and map information.

Anti-TAP Tag Monoclonal Antibody(4H2) Review

Tandem affinity purification (TAP) is a purification technique for studying protein–protein interactions. It involves creating a fusion protein with a designed piece, the TAP tag, on the end.The TAP tag historically consists of a calmodulin binding peptide (CPB), a tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease cleavage site, and Protein A. However, additional tag combinations have been used with the TAP a02200-wbmethod including the combination of FLAG tags and HA tags.The TAP method permits the identification of proteins interacting with a particular target protein without any prior knowledge about the function, activity, or composition of the interacting proteins. This tag is also known as the C-terminal TAP tag because an N-terminal version is also available. However, the method to be described assumes the use of a C-terminal tag, although the principle behind the method is still the same.

Anti-TAP Tag Monoclonal Antibody(4H2) was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen. This antibody has been tested with WB. And Abbkine suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB 1:5000-10000.

The TAP (Tandem Affinity Purification) method is an affinity purification method for the isolation of TAP-tagged proteins along with associated proteins. To my knowledge, Abbkine is a great option when you want to find a cost-effective product. It isworth recommending.

Versatile PurKine™ Protein L Resin 4FFProtein L is a bacterial surface protein isolated from Peptostreptoccocus magnus, and recombinant protein L is produced in E.coli. Unlike Protein A and Protein G, which bind primarily through Fc regions of immunoglobilins, Protein L binds Igs through interactions with the light kappa chain of all classes of immunoglobulin such as IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE, IgD, and Fab fragments. It also binds to single-chain antibody fragments (scFv).

PurKine™ Protein L Resin 4FF  has been designed  to purify mammalian IgG that contain specific kappa light chains from serum, ascites fluid, cell culture supernantant and other antibody samples.The Resin consists of 90μm beads of cross-linked 4% agarose, to which Recombinant protein L has been coupled. More than 15mg human lgG can be captured by  per mL of this resin. No decrease in performance occurs after at least five repeated uses. In addition, its high flow properties make it excellent for scaling-up.

In a word, PurKine™ Protein L Resin 4FF is a versatile affinity resin which can be apply in purifying monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies which bind poorly to Protein A or Protein G, monoclonal antibodies from culture supernatants supplemented with bovine serum ( it does not bind bovine immunoglobilins), immunoprecipitation and co-immunoprecipitation assays, ScFv and Fab fragments containing kappa light chains.

How to Choose good Amcyan antibody

One of the most frustrating things in the lab is spending good money on an antibody only to find out it doesn’t work well in your application. You can then either spend weeks trying to make it work, abandon your work altogether or humbly ‘fess up that you made a bad purchase and beg for a second chance. In an effort to limit your groveling, we have made a list of tips for choosing a good Amcyan antibody for Amcyan epitope or Amcyan fusion proteins.


Pay attention to application


The best case scenario is to find a Cyman tag antibody that has already been used in the exact manner in which you intend to use it. Most of us are rarely this lucky!

Search the literature, product reviews and product data sheets to determine how the antibody has been used in the past. Be mindful that antibodies that work well in one application may not be suited for another. For example, an antibody that works well in a Western may not work well in immunoprecipitations due to conformational changes in the protein. Alternatively, posttranslational modifications, such as phosphorylation, might mask or reveal epitopes recognized by antibodies (particularly monoclonal antibodies).

If you can’t find an antibody that has been used in your application, choose one that has been used in a compatible manner. For example, antibodies used in FACS analysis on live cells might also work in native immunoprecipitations which also maintain the integrity of the protein.


Check how the Amcyan antibody was validated


A lot of antibodies are validated using recombinant proteins that are abundantly expressed. Or they are validated with proteins that were produced in non-native hosts such as bacteria or yeast. While these validations show that the antibody can work, they do not necessarily show that the antibody will work under alternative conditions.

The type of antibody matters


Is it better to us a monoclonal or a polyclonal Amcyan antibody? For some proteins, you don’t have a say in the matter – you have to go with whatever antibody is available. However, if you do have a choice, choosing the right kind of antibody might increase your success. Polyclonal antibodies, which recognize multiple epitopes, are often better in Western blots, immunohistochemistry and immunoprecipitations. They can also be more robust and detect less abundant proteins.

Monoclonals are useful in detecting conformation-specific epitopes and are invaluable when using multiple antibodies simultaneously. Due to their specificity, monoclonals often give less background. Because they only recognize a single epitope though, monoclonal antibodies can be more limited in application. But don’t let that scare you off! I have used many monoclonal anbtibodies that worked well in Westerns.

If you are looking for a detection tool to quantify or localize your Amcyan epitope or Amcyan fusion proteins, we highly recommend you to try our featured monoclonal Amcyan Antibody risk free. This antibody with clone number 8T2 can specifically recognizes native and denatured forms of Amcyan fusion proteins, with which can meet your any requirements for Western Blot analysis.

Introduction to VSV-G antibodies from Sigma

One of the most frustrating things in the lab is spending good money on an antibody only to find out it doesn’t work well in your application. Now let start our VSV-G Monoclonal Antibody introduction from Sigma.

VSV-G antibodies from Sigma Sigma-Aldrich Corporation, started from 1975, is an American chemical, life science and biotechnology company headquartered in St. Louis and has operations in approximately 40 countries. In September 2014, the German company Merck KGaA announced that it would be acquiring Sigma-Aldrich to found a new Millipore-Sigma. Due to this combination, Merck-Millipore would supply these antibodies from 2016 in your region.VSV-G antibodies from Now Millipore-Sigma

Sigma (Now part of Millipore-Sigma) provide totally 2 VSV-G antibody, with one VSV-G polyclonal antibody and another VSV-G monoclonal antibody with clone #P5D4.

Monoclonal Anti-VSV Glycoprotein antibody produced in mouse, clone P5D4MonoclonalMouseWB, IF, IP

The polyclonal VSV-G antibody can only be applied to WB assay with suggested 1:1000 dilution. So if you need VSV-G fusion protein localization analysis, you'd better choose another Monoclonal Anti-VSV Glycoprotein antibody. This monoclonal antibody recognizes an epitope containing the five carboxy-terminal amino acids of VSV Glycoprotein. In infected cells, the antibody localizes immature forms of VSV-G in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and in the cisternae of Golgi complex, as well as mature VSV-G at the cell epipolic and in the budding virus. It also can be used to pull down the VSV-G taged protein with IP assay.

As you know, one manufacturer may license their antibody to other companies, so do not buy three antibodies to test without making sure they are actually different. With common monoclonals that are supplied by many companies you might also consider shopping around for the best supplier of the target protein. Here, we put another high quality VSV-G Tag Mab from other vendor with Sigma VSV-G antibody together for your brief comparison.

HA Tag DNA and Peptide Sequence

It is common to include a small segment of the viral hemagglutinin (HA) coat protein  in gene expression vectors as an epitope tag. Human influenza hemagglutinin (HA) is a surface glycoprotein required for the infectivity of the human virus. The HA tag has been extensively used as a general epitope tag in expression vectors. Many recombinant proteins have been engineered to express the HA tag, which does not appear to interfere with the bioactivity or the biodistribution of the recombinant protein. This tag facilitates the detection, isolation, and purification of the protein of interest.

As show below, Influenza Hemagglutinin (HA) Peptide is a tag peptide derived from an epitope of the influenza hemagglutinin protein. In conjugation with an HA hemagglutinin tag antibody, proteins tagged with the HA segment can be easily identified in Western blot or in immunocytochemical experiments, eliminating the generation of any protein-specific antibodies. Thus, HA hemagglutinin tag antibody is one of most commonly used antibodies in protein expression and cell biology studies.

HA Tag DNA and Peptide Sequence

 

However, the HA tag is not suitable for detection or purification of proteins from apoptotic cells since it is cleaved by Caspase-3 and / or Caspase-7 after its sequence DVPD, causing it to lose its immunoreactivity.

HA Tag DNA Sequence

Tags and fusion proteins are excellent tools for further understanding the function of your favorite gene. For example, fusing your protein to an epitope tag, such as HA, will allow you to easily identify your protein using an HA tag antibody against that epitope. This could allow you to conduct WB or IP of your favorite gene even if you do not have an antibody against it.

Anti-MBP Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (9Y5) Review

MBP is used to increase the solubility of recombinant proteins expressed in E. coli. In these systems, the protein of interest is often expressed as a MBP-fusion protein, preventing aggregation of the protein of interest. The mechanism by which MBP increases solubility is not well understood. In addition, MBP can itself be used as an affinity tag for purification of recombinant proteins. The fusion protein binds to amylose columns while all other proteins flow through. The MBP-protein fusion can be purified by eluting the column with maltose. Once the fusion protein is obtained in a02070-wbpurified form, the protein of interest (X) is often cleaved from MBP with a specific protease. Protein X can then be separated from MBP by affinity chromatography.The fusion of proteins with MBP usually enhances their solubility and facilitates their proper folding so that the fusion proteins are most often bifunctional. In addition, such fusions can facilitate the crystallisation of difficult proteins, e.g. membrane proteins.

Anti-MBP Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (9Y5) was was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen. This antibody has been tested with WB application. And Abbkine suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB 1:5000.

Responsible to say, Anti-MBP Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (9Y5) is a very good product. It works well. And this product is what I want.

mbp-tag-1Dextrin Resins is a chromatography medium for purifying proteins fused to maltose binding protein (MBP-tagged protein). Recombinant proteins with MBP-tags often gives increased expression levels and higher solubility of the target protein. Proper folding of the attached protein has also been shown to be promoted by the MBP tag. Since MBP increase the solubility, the tag is extremely useful for recombinant proteins accumulated in an insoluble form (inclusion bodies).

PurKine™ MBP-Tag Dextrin Resin 6FF effectively purifies high levels of overexpressed MBP-tagged fusion proteins at a variety of scales. The Resin consists of 90μm beads of highly cross-linked 6% agarose, to which Dextrin has been coupled. Tests confirm that performance equals or exceeds popular Dextrin resins from other suppliers, and no decrease in performance occurs after at least five repeated uses. In addition, its high flow properties make it excellent for scaling-up.

The series of PurKine™ MBP-Tag Dextrin Resin products contain MBP-Tag Dextrin Resin 6FF, MBP-Tag Dextrin Packed Column 6FFMBP-Tag Protein Purification Kit (Dextrin). Per milliliter of resin can capture more than 10 mg of MBP-tagged protein. MBP-Tag Dextrin Resin 6FF is a highly crosslinked resin which can tolerate at most 500cm/hour linear flow rates, thus it make  MBP-Tag Dextrin Resin 6FF more excellent for scaling-up.

Anti-Myc Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (2D5) Review

A myc tag is a polypeptide protein tag derived from the c-myc gene product that can be added to a protein using recombinant DNA technology. It can be used for affinity chromatography, then used to separate recombinant, overexpressed protein from wild type protein expressed by the host organism. The a02060-wbpeptide sequence of the myc-tag is (in 1- and 3-letter codes, respectively): N-EQKLISEEDL-C, N-Glu-Gln-Lys-Leu-Ile-Ser-Glu-Glu-Asp-Leu-C, where N stands for Amino-terminus and C stands for Carboxy terminus. It can be fused to the C-terminus and the N-terminus of a protein. The tag is approximately 1202 Daltons in atomic mass and has 10 amino acids.

Anti-Myc Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (2D5) was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen. This antibody has been tested with WB, IP and IF. And Abbkine suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB 1:5000, IP: 1:200, IF: 1:1000.

Abbkine assures the top-ranking production technology and service system, and provides the quality products with logical prices. I trust the brand very much. Anti-Myc Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (2D5) is one of the products that I think is very good.

Anti-His Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (5C3) Review

A polyhistidine-tag is an amino acid motif in proteins that consists of at least five histidine (His) residues, often at the N- or C-terminus of the protein. It is also known as hexa histidine-tag, 6xHis-tag, and by the trademarked name His-tag. Polyhistidine-tags are often used for affinity purification of polyhistidine-tagged recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli and other a02050-wbprokaryotic expression systems.

Anti-His Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (5C3)  was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen. This antibody has been tested with IF, IP and WB. Abbkine suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB 1:3000, IP: 1:200, IF: 1:1000.

His tag is a short peptide composed of 6 histidine (His-His-His-His-His-His). Because its molecular weight is small, His tag is relatively easy to isolate and purify. I chose Anti-His Tag Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (5C3) to detect the expression of His tag fusion protein. I am satisfied with the result.
