The Cell Culture Contamination Detection Kit is a simple and effective procedure for screening tissue cultures for contamination by microorganisms. The kit not only detects contaminants, but it also identifies the contaminant type.
The MycoFluor™ Mycoplasma Detection Kit provides an ultrasensitive, rapid, and simple fluorescence microscopic assay for the visual identification of mycoplasma infection in laboratory cell cultures. In order to detect mycoplasma, the fluorescent MycoFluor™ reagent is added directly to the culture...
Pierce™ β-Glucan Blocker Thermo Scientific™
Pierce β-Glucan-Blocker is added to samples suspected of β-1,3-glucans contamination, preventing the occurrence of false positive results in endotoxin detection (LAL) assays. β-1,3-glucans contamination may arise from the presence of yeast and cellulosic materials.
