Don't miss any neurotrophin!
Neurotrophins are important biomarkers in Neurobiology, including stem cell development to neural lineages. BDNF and NGF are the ones being studied in most cases. However, it has been found that neurotrophins
How to measure Glycosaminoglycans and Proteoglycans?
Glycosaminoglycans (or mucopolysaccharides) are long un-branched polysaccherides which consist of disaccharide repeats. The repeats usually (with the exception of Keratan sulfate) consist of on amino sugar
Get your ELISA results before lunch!
ELISAs are widely used in biomarker-related studies, especially when a high number of samples is involved, and only a few biomarkers need to be quantified. That said, incubations can be somehow cumbersome,
A simple way to measure Elastin
Recently I reported about methods to measure:
- Collagen - Sircol for soluble and insoluble collagen assays
- Glycosaminoglycans - How to measure Glycosaminoglycans and Proteoglycans?
