摘要:
This application relates to a method and apparatus for the electrophoresis, blotting and detection of nucleic acids, proteins and other biological molecules using a porous polymer gel carrier and assembly. The combination of a porous polymer gel carrier and attached laminate layer facilitates the electrophoresis and subsequent blotting analysis of nucleic acids, proteins and other biological molecules. The porous polymer gel carrier also facilitates the use, handling and processing of fragile separation materials such as polyacrylimide and agarose gels. The method and apparatus also permits the convenient packaging and distribution of standardized electrophoresis and blotting products.

The present invention provides methods of detecting and/or characterizing the viral vector particle content of a medium. A medium is provided and contacted with an excitation energy such that, if a viral vector particle is in the medium, an electron associated with the intrinsically fluorogenic portion of the viral vector particle will be raised to an excited energy state. The excited electron is permitted to emit radiation having an emission wavelength which is detected. The viral vector particle content of the medium then can be evaluated by comparing the detected emission wavelength with a standard signal. For example, the number of viral vector particles in a medium can be quantified by comparing the detected wavelength and its corresponding intensity to a standard signal. Similar methods for evaluating the adenoviral vector particle content of a medium and the intrinsically fluorogenic adenoviral structural protein content of a medium are provided.

The present invention relates to diagnostic applications. For autoimmune diseases more particularly, it is demonstrated herein that individuals with SLE, APLA, MCDS and PSS have antibodies that are specific for SR proteins. Thus, in particular aspects the present invention provides methods and compositions for diagnosing autoimmune disease using SR proteins and antibodies to detect the presence of SR protein-specific antibodies in an individual suspected of having autoimmune disease, wherein the presence of such antibodies is indicative of said individual suffering from autoimmune disease.

摘要:
The proteins in a biological sample that is sought to be analyzed for its protein composition by am electrophoretic or chromatographic procedure are coupled to a dye in an unusually efficient manner by combining the sample with a solid dry composition containing the dye, a buffering agent, and in preferred embodiments, a denaturing agent as well. The solid and dry form of the composition prevents the dye from deteriorating or decomposing, and the combination of components in the composition allows the dye to couple to the proteins in a relatively uniform manner with no overstaining of the protein when the composition and the sample are heated together and held at an elevated temperature for a short period of time.
摘要:
New slope electrophoresis method and apparatus for performing electrophoresis as a biochemical analysis tool is disclosed. Slope electrophoresis combines the advantages of vertical electrophoresis and horizontal electrophoresis. The angle of slope electrophoresis to the bottom side is between horizontal electrophoresis (0 degree) and vertical electrophoresis (90 degree). The most prefer angle of slope of electrophoresis is between 75 degree to 88 degree. Slope electrophoresis is also used for two-dimensional electrophoresis.
