Applied Biosystems has introduced an 8plex version to its line of iTRAQ® labelling reagents, to double the existing capacity for biomarker discovery and comparing protein levels between samples.
The increased capacity of the new iTRAQ reagents enables researchers to obtain higher throughput and greater efficiency than label-free methods or other approaches with limited multiplexing capacity, so experiments that might otherwise take months can be completed, with better
accuracy, in a matter of days or weeks.
The original 4plex version of iTRAQ reagents has been highlighted in more than 100 peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals and, with the introduction of 8plex reagents, researchers can efficiently expand their quantitative proteomic experiments by simultaneously analysing eight samples within a single experiment.
The new reagents should make the process of biomarker discovery more productive by increasing the scale of experiments conducted by research laboratories.
