There are several ways to optimize your experiments, and using a Boster Bio optimization guide can help you do just that. These guides can provide a wealth of information and suggestions to help you optimize your experiments and get better results. Every researcher experiences problems during their experiments. Fortunately, proper controls can eliminate many of the possible sources of error. Troubleshooting guides are a great way to identify and eliminate potential troubleshooting problems and ensure a successful experiment.
The PI3 marker is a highly sensitive marker for cell death, a hallmark of cancer. It is part of a family of cysteine proteases that respond to a variety of apoptotic stimuli, including cell surface or mitochondrial stimuli. Some pro-apoptotic stimuli include tumor necrosis factor (TNF), growth factor receptor-bound proteins, granzyme-B DNA damage, calcium channels, and others. In addition to PI3, Boster Bio offers ELISA kits that detect hormones, small molecules, and oxidative stress.
