GeneTex, Inc. products

The GeneTex SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Nucleocapsid Protein Sandwich ELISA kit is an in vitro assay tool for the quantitative measurement of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein. This assay employs a pair of monoclonal antibodies specific for SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein, with the lowest detectable dose concentration of standard protein being 18 pg/ml.

Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the researcher.

Cell pellet sections are 4 μm in thickness, and mounted on positively charged glass slides. Cell pellet consists of 293T cells overexpressing SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (full-length, no tag) fixed with 4% PFA (15 min, room temp) 48 hrs post-transfection, and then embedded in paraffin. Please see the corresponding overexpression cell lysate (GTX535664) and FFPE cell pellet block (GTX435640).

ATP is the primary energy currency of living systems. Virtually all energy requiring processes utilize the chemical energy stored in the phosphate bond of ATP. ATP is formed exclusively in the mitochondria and a variety of genetic diseases can affect ATP formation in the mitochondria. There are a number of commercially available ATP assays which detects femtomoles or less of ATP by measuring luminescence but these kits require specialized luminescence instrumentation and utilize luciferase which can be difficult to maintain in active form. GeneTex newly developed ATP Colorimetric and Fluorometric Assay kit is designed to be a robust, simple method which utilizes the phosphorylation of glycerol to generate a product that is easily quantified by colorimetric (λmax = 570 nm) or fluorometric (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm) methods.
