Porvair Sciences is a supplier of specialist assay kits and high-performance microplates for cancer and life science research.
Exhibited at the recent American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) meeting - considerable interest was shown in Porvair’s growing range of Chromatrap ChIP kits for epigenetics research plus a new range of assay and cell culture microplates for high throughput screening and cell growth and proliferation respectively.
Chromatrap kits are well known for their easy, fast, and sensitive approach to immunocapture of antibody-chromatin complexes from a wide range of samples. Employing Chromatrap bead-free Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) technology, collaborators on the CEAT project are developing new profiling approaches to identify and characterise epigenetic drugs that are effective in preventing cancer development in ovarian cancer models.
