Kinase profiling
From WikiCover
On August 7, 2007, Caliper Life Sciences launched the Caliper LabChip EZ Reader Series, delivering a complete range of products for in-house kinase profiling. The series, which complements the existing LabChip 3000 system, Caliper's most sophisticated system for drug discovery, includes the new EZ Reader II system, a bench-top reader to use for real-time kinetic analysis with push-button operation, and the EZ Reader system, formerly the DeskTop Profiler system. Each product in the EZ Reader Series utilizes Caliper's LabChip microfluidic-based screening technology to yield high-quality, reproducible data to help pharmaceutical researchers more confidently qualify potential lead candidates.
The EZ Reader Series features innovative systems that rapidly profile compounds against a diverse kinase panel in a timely and cost-effective manner. The series complements Caliper's existing offerings for kinase profiling. The EZ Reader system features a four-sipper Caliper LabChip microfluidic device, while the EZ Reader II system provides a choice of either a 4-sipper or a 12-sipper LabChip device to run assays with up to three times higher throughput. The EZ Reader II system also enables real time kinetic analysis, allowing researchers to study enzyme behavior over time in mechanism-of-action (MOA) studies. Its compact, bench-top size and push-button operation delivers a high level of functionality without a large footprint or the need for highly skilled operators. Caliper's ProfilerPro kinase reagent profiling kit, which allows broad range, rapid kinase profiling in-house, accompanies each system.
