Supporting SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 Research
Better Cell Separation
At Akadeum Life Sciences, we have developed an innovative isolation technology that uses buoyant microbubbles to separate and isolate various targets, including cells. This is a groundbreaking approach to cell separation, because it relies solely on the power of gravity (the bubbles float) and requires no additional equipment or harsh chemicals. Our microbubble workflow is fast, easy, gentle on cells, and can performed on any volume in any container. Some of our most popular off-the-shelf kits are helpful for ongoing research into the COVID-19 pandemic, and these products continue to be readily available.
Human T Cell Isolation Kits
Generally speaking, T cells play a critical role in developing long-term immunity to any number of pathogens. The role that T cells play in COVID-19 is currently undefined, but this is under rigorous investigation within the scientific community. Our Human T Cell Isolation Kits, including our Human T Cell Isolation Kit and our Human CD4+ T Cell Isolation Kit, functionalize our innovative cell isolation technology by using microbubbles to quickly and gently enrich a sample for downstream processing in only 30 minutes. This can be done right in your sample container without the need for any additional equipment. If you have any questions or would like to talk to one of our scientific team members, please get in touch with us! Feel free to schedule a call for a time that is convenient for you. We’d love to hear about your research and to learn if there’s a way for us to help.
Human RBC Depletion Kit
It’s a common frustration – so many samples can have residual RBC contamination, which complicates downstream processing. Have you ever wished for a magic wand that would lift the RBCs out of your sample and out of your way? Akadeum has made it happen… Only it’s not magic, it’s microbubbles! Our RBC Depletion Kit is incredibly fast, easy, and gentle on your sample. The entire workflow uses only 3 steps and takes only 10 minutes. Let our microbubbles solve your RBC headaches for you! We’re here to help, and we would love to hear more about your research and whether our microbubbles could be of benefit to you. Schedule a call with one of our scientists for a time that is convenient for you, we’d love to connect.
Streptavidin Kit
Streptavidin microbubbles can be used for a wide range of custom applications. Our Streptavidin bubbles can bring you all the benefits of our technology plus the flexibility to adapt to your specific application. We want you to be successful in your research; our scientific team is here to help you develop a protocol that will set you up for success. As with all of our microbubble products, our Streptavidin Kit is fast, easy, and gentle on your sample and can be used with any sample of any volume, in any container. If you’re interested in using our Streptavidin bubbles for your project and want to learn more, please schedule a call with one of our scientists! We’d love the opportunity to hear about your research and to see if we could be of any assistance.
As a whole, the scientific community continues to advance our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 and the progression of COVID-19. This will undoubtedly lead to better therapeutic treatments and, with any luck, the development of effective vaccines. Our innovative cell isolation technology can be used for a variety of applications, including critical work in COVID-19 / SARS-CoV-2 research. In particular, our RBC Depletion kit can be used to quickly and gently clean up a sample for downstream processing, and our T Cell Isolation kits offer a fast, easy, and gentle workflow for isolating and enriching samples for research into these critical immune cells. Our products continue to be in-stock and readily available, and we are prepared to continue supporting researchers through these challenging times.
