 Plant Research 

Anti Aquaporin TIP Antibodies


Aquaporins are channel proteins that specifically regulate the flow of water molecules across cell membranes in all living organisms.  In plants, aquaporins are classified as PIPs (plasma membrane intrinsic proteins) and TIPs (tonoplast intrinsic proteins). Cosmo Bio now offers an exciting variety of specific antibodies to plant MIPs nad TIPs for investigating aquaporin function and plant-water relations.

Bone Research

Anti GGT Antibody



              


The enzyme gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) was recently identified as a novel bone-resporbing factor that stimulates osteoclast formation. In a mouse model of CIA (chronic induced arthritis), mice treated with anti-GGT monoclonal antibody AGT-3 showed reduced osteoclasts and reduced bone erosion (PMID: 17680722.) Both clones AGT-3 and AGT-1 are recommended for GGT detecton in human, mouse, and rat by western blotting, while clone AGT-1 has also proven useful for GGT detection by immunohistochemistry.

Endocrine Research

Mouse Leptin ELISA



 Leptin is a 16 kDa circulating adipokine that acts primarily in the hypothalamus to decrease appetite and increase energy expenditure. This sandwich ELISA for mouse leptin combines easy sample (plasma, serum, culture supernatant) prep with reliable quanitation, high specificity, and freedom from interfering substances. ELISAs for detecting Rat Leptin are also available.

Environmental Endocrine   

Carp Vitellogenin  ELISA
   
 


The presence of endocrine disrupting chemicals in the environment can be inferred by their ability to induce expression of the normally female specific, estrogen sensitive vitellogenin gene in male species. This sensitive ELISA kit is for the specific detection of vitellogenin in the blood of Carp fish. Similar ELISAs for detecting vitellogenin in other species are available from Cosmo Bio.

Bioseparation
 

MagnoSphere Magnetic Particles






 High performance MagnoShere MS300 micron-sized magnetic particles are coated with a proprietary hydrophillic polymer containing COOH groups for protein immobilization. Use MS/300 Low Carboxy to affinity purify samples for highly sensitive applications such as LC-MS. Use MS/300 Carboxy particles for developing ELISA, immunoprecipitation, and other affinity-based assays where low background (and convenience) are critical.

Collagen Research 

Anti Collagen II ELISA


 Anti collagen type II antibodies are effectors of inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis models. Their presence is serum is indicative of arthritis onset. Rheumera ELISA kits are available for the sensitive detection of anti collagen type II antibodies in human, mouse, or rat serum.
