Acolyte has announced that it has formed a distribution partnership with Cosmo Bio Co. Ltd of Japan for its Life Science products.
The BacLite® range currently includes BacLite® RapiTECT GRAM NEGATIVE (GN)™ for the detection and enumeration of gram negative bacterial cells and BacLite® RapiTECT MAMMALIAN (M)™ for the enumeration of mammalian cells.
The BacLite® RapiTECT assay range uses adenylate kinase (AK) as a sensitive marker of viable cells.
Previous research has demonstrated that AK enhances the sensitivity of cell enumeration and acts as a reliable reporter of viable cells than ATP bioluminescence.
Unlike ATP, AK is present at relatively constant levels in viable cells and can be used to count cells at very low levels due to the ADP»ATP amplification process.
Applications for the BacLite® RapiTECT GRAM NEGATIVE (GN)™ assay include bacterial growth and inhibition studies, anti-microbial research and a range of other microbiological, bio-processing and pharmacological applications.
The BacLite® RapiTECT MAMMALIAN (M)™ assay can be used in drug discovery, bioengineering, bio-processing and genetic research as well as many areas of academic and institution based research.
Other BacLite® RapiTECT products will involve kits for gram positive bacterial cells, plant cells, fungal cells and yeast cells.
