Stable-Isotope Labeled Particles

With years of experience in the pharmaceutical and life science sectors, CD Bioparticles is excited to announce the launch of its new line of Stable-Isotope Labeled Particles to the scientific community, providing scientists and researchers with a powerful tool for a wide range of applications, including regional organ blood flow measurements and particle deposition studies. Polystyrene particles are prepared by emulsion and emulsion-free polymerization processes and provide a flexible platform for diagnostic and bioseparation applications. Several methods are available for attaching biological ligands to polystyrene particles, including adsorption onto plain polystyrene particles, covalent attachment to surface functionalized particles, and adsorption of ligands of interest onto particles precoated with binding proteins (e.g., streptavidin, protein A, or protein G). Polystyrene particles have a wide range of applications in scientific research, diagnostics, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and nanotechnology, including latex agglutination assays, lateral flow detection, purification and separation, ion-exchange, and solid phase immunoassays. To help accelerate research for regional organ blood flow measurements and particle deposition studies, CD Bioparticles now offers a wide range of non-radioactive isotope-labeled polystyrene particles. Stable isotopes are non-radioactive forms of atoms. Although they do not emit radiation, their unique properties allow them to be used in a wide range of applications. CD Bioparticles stable isotope-labeled microspheres are a cost-effective alternative to radioactive and optical microspheres for measuring regional organ blood flow and particle deposition studies. In addition, the high sensitivity of these particles makes them suitable for general applications as well as for measuring low flow states or low flow organs such as skeletal muscle and skin.
