with

Integrated Multi User Network Licensed PDQuest 2-D Analysis Software

Manufacturer:

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA

Acquisition Date:

2004

Predominant Uses:

PDQuest software and the Spot Cutter Plus are integrated so that image analysis sets that reveal interesting proteins in experiments are used to direct automated spot cutting.

  • visible and fluorescent stain compatible (Coomassie, silver, zinc, SYPRO Ruby)
  • extraction from freestanding, glass/plastic backed gels, PVDF and nitrocellulose membrane blots

Multi-user Net licensing of PDQuest offers powerful comparative analysis and databasing of 2-D gels to customers via a standard internet portal.

  • quantitative and qualitative comparison over large sets of experimental data to discover protein changes
  • powerful auto-matching algorithms quickly and accurately match gels with no manual intervention
