Used GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore 2000 #162844 for sale

GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore 2000 is a highly advanced laboratory instrument designed to facilitate the binding analysis of biomolecular interactions. It is an ideal tool for biochemical and biophysical studies of biomolecular interactions, such as protein-protein, DNA-protein, and ligand-receptor interactions. Biacore 2000 enables scientists to accurately quantify the interaction between two different molecules. The interaction is measured using surface plasmon resonance (SPR), a technique where ligands are immobilized on a sensor chip; the chip is then placed in the instrument and a receptor solution is passed over the chip. As the receptor binds to the immobilized ligand, a signal is generated which is used to quantify the strength of the interaction. GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore 2000 has an integrated equipment that allows researchers to perform a variety of experiments. To begin with, researchers can use the system to identify and qualify binding interaction between a target and a ligand. Once the interaction is identified, scientists can determine the kinetic parameters of the interaction, such as the on- and off-rate constants, affinity, and the concentration of the interacting molecules. The unit can also be used to study a variety of biochemical and biophysical properties. For instance, the instrument can be used to measure the pH-dependence of binding of two different molecules, or to assess the effect of temperature or specific ligands on binding affinity. The machine is designed for ease of operation, with an intuitive user interface and user-friendly software to facilitate set-up and data analysis. Additionally, the tool is customizable and compatible with a wide range of platforms, making it ideal for a variety of laboratory settings. Biacore 2000 is a powerful and versatile asset that has become the standard for quantitative binding analysis in life science laboratories. It offers a cost effective and reliable platform, allowing researchers to maximize their understanding of biochemical and biophysical interactions.
