Cambridge Isotope Laboratories Mouse Express NeuCode

Cambridge Isotope Laboratories has launched Mouse Express NeuCode, a mouse feed with various combinations of labeled Lys isotopologues for MS proteomics studies. The product will increase the multiplexing potential for traditional SILAC quantitative experiments involving neuron encoding. It uses isotopologues of lysine for multiplexed relative quantification of proteins by high-resolution MS. NeuCode also drastically cuts down on labeling time compared to SILAM and allows detection of a greater number of peptides than SILAC, the company said. The product is available in one-week or three-week quantities, and each kit contains enough feed for three mice.
