General description

Latex beads are utilized in applications including electron microscopy and cell counter calibration, antibody-mediated agglutination diagnostics, phagocytosis experiments, and many others. The most popular use of latex beads is, particularly in latex agglutination tests. This method allows the detection of minute amounts of antigens or antibodies in serum, urine, and cerebrospinal fluids. It is also used in phagocytosis research. The beads are supplied as aqueous suspensions and are composed mainly of polymer particles (30%) and water, (>69.0%) with small amounts of surfactant, (0.1–0.5%) sodium bicarbonate, and potassium sulfate (inorganic salts – 0.2%). This product is for R&D use only, not for drug, household, or other uses. For more information, please refer the Product Information Sheet.

Retinal degeneration and visual impairment are the first signs of juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis caused by CLN3 mutations, followed by inevitable progression to blindness. We investigated retinal degeneration in Cln3(Δex1-6) null mice, revealing classic 'fingerprint' lysosomal storage in the retinal

Hopanoids are pentacyclic molecules present in membranes from some bacteria, recently proposed as sterol surrogates in these organisms. Diplopterol is an abundant hopanoid that, similar to sterols, does not self-aggregate in lamellar structures when pure, but forms monolayers at the

Cell-bound membrane vesicles (CBMVs) are a type of membrane vesicles different from the well-known extracellular vesicles (EVs). In recent years, the applications of EVs as drug delivery systems have been studied widely. A question may arise whether isolated CBMVs also

There is a higher incidence of allergic conditions among children living in industrialized countries than those in developing regions. One explanation for this is reduced neonatal exposure to microbes and the consequent lack of immune stimulation. Sensitivity to cockroach allergen

Although platelet microparticles (PMPs) were the most abundant micoparticles (MPs) in platelet (PLT) products, other MPs and their parental cells can also be brought into the plasma during PLT apheresis. However, the effects of PLT apheresis, storage time, and leukofiltration
