Primer Pairs for Neurotrophic Factors & beta-Actin

Promega is pleased to offer four sets of oligonucleotide primers for BDNF, CNTF, NGF and beta-Actin. Each Primer Pair includes 100µM each of 5'- and 3'-primers. These primer pairs complement our growing line of molecular reagents for studies in neurobiology including neurotrophic and growth factors. All Primer Pairs are designed for the easy generation of PCR products of discrete sizes by standard methods. These oligonucleotides are tested with rat templates in reverse transcription and cycled amplification using Promega’s Reverse Transcription System (Cat.# A3500). Primer Pair oligonucleotides are provided in separate tubes so that either primer may be used in conjunction with an alternative, user-designed primer.

New ELISA for BDNF

The Emax® ImmunoAssay Systems continue to grow with the introduction of an ELISA for BDNF (Cat.# G7610, G7611).  This immunoassay is based on the sandwich-format ELISA and use monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies for coating 96 well plates and subsequent analyte detection. The detect antibody in the BDNF EmaxTM System is conjugated to horseradish peroxidase for color detection. We offer this new system in two sizes: one set of reagents for 160 sample assays (including 32 control assays) and a second for 400 sample assays (including 80 control assays).
