Nano-Probes Allow an Inside Look at Cell Nuclei
Nanotechnology may be in its infancy, but biologists may soon use it to watch the inner workings of a living cell like never before. Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have developed a way to sneak nano-sized probes inside cell nuclei where they can track life's fundamental processes, such a...Self-assembled nano-sized probes allow Penn researchers to see tumors through flesh and skin
Nano-sized particles embedded with bright, light-emitting molecules have enabled researchers to visualize a tumor more than one centimeter below the skin surface using only infrared light. A team of chemists, bioengineers and medical researchers based at the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Minnesota has lodged fluorescent materials called porphyrins within the surface of a polyme...Products containing specific probes for detecting alternative splice forms protected
ExonHit Therapeutics, today announced the grant of a major patent, US # 6,881,571, by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on microarray products allowing the specific detection of mRNAs produced by alternative splicing, covering microarrays optimised for the discovery of alternative RNA splicing events. The patent protects the probe configuration of a unique set of five oligonucleotides...'Smart' nanoprobes light up disease
Researchers from Rice University's Center for Biological and Environmental Nanotechnology (CBEN) have developed a "smart" beacon hundreds of times smaller than a human cell that is programmed to light up only when activated by specific proteases. Altered expression of particular proteases is a common hallmark of cancer, atherosclerosis, and many other diseases. In the September issue of th...UC Davis researchers use heated nanoprobes to destroy breast cancer cells in mice
In experiments with laboratory mice that bear aggressive human breast cancers, UC Davis researchers have used hot nanoprobes to slow the growth of tumors -- without damage to surrounding healthy tissue. The researchers describe their work in the March issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine. "We have demonstrated that the system is feasible in laboratory mice. The next step will be clinic...Probes at Biology Products
SYBR Green II RNA gel stain*10,000X concentrate in DMSO* from Molecular Probes (Invitrogen)

adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), BODIPY FL conjugated/tagged from Molecular Probes (Invitrogen)
Description:BODIPY FL ATP-Gamma-S binds to ATP-binding proteins. To create this fluorescent nucleotide the BODIPY FL fluorophore was linked through the Gamma-thiol of ATP-Gamma-S. In addition to its potential use for binding studies the BODIPY FL ATP-Gamma-S thioether is an important new substrate for Fhit a member of the histidine triad superfamily of nucleotide-binding proteins....Company:Molecular Probes (Invitrogen)
SlowFade Antifade Kit from Molecular Probes (Invitrogen)
Description:The active ingredient in Molecular Probes. SlowFadeAntifade Kits is 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO), which appears to act as a free radical scavenger that extends useful fluorescence emission. Our original SlowFade formulation (S-2828) was designed to reduce the fading rate of fluorescein to almost zero (Figure 1); it does, however, decrease fluorescein.s fluorescence intensity. Because it...Company:Molecular Probes (Invitrogen)
