Beta Amyloid (1-42), Aggregation Kit
Product background: Beta-Amyloid peptides (A-beta), the major constituent of amyloid plaques in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients, is thought to be a primary contributor to Alzheimer’s Disease (AD).
About the product: Expressed recombinantly in E. coli, Beta-Amyloid (1-42) is purified to our highest standards to ensure batch-to-batch consistency in both purity and quality. In addition to the Beta-Amyloid (1-42) in NH4OH counter-ion, this kit includes reagents to initiate and detect aggregation through thioflavin fluorescence assay.
Applications: The Beta-Amyloid aggregation kit allows for time-based monitoring of the aggregation process through thioflavin fluorescence. Possible roles for this kit may include aggregation kinetics, aggregate stability, or therapeutic models.
