iCE3 Kits and Cartridges
iCE consumables make operating your system fast and easy—and get you consistent data at the same time. Our kits help you develop methods and run system qualifications, and include all the reagents you need to simplify day-to-day operation. GMP/GLP needs? All consumables are tested and validated to meet these requirements.
iCE Method Development Kit
The iCE Method Development Kit is a one-stop shop for all your method development needs, including a test mix to make sure your system is ready to go. It includes a Method Development Guide plus all sample preparation reagents and a wide range of ampholytes, pI markers and additives that'll let you tackle any protein. The kit can be used with both the FC and HT cartridges. Order yours today!
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 042-848 | Method Development Kit. This kit includes a test mix, anolyte, catholyte, methyl cellulose, five types of ampholytes (Pharmalyte pH ranges 3-10, 2.5-5, 5-8 and 8-10.5 and Servalyt pH range 2-9), eight pI markers (3.21, 5.12, 6.14, 7.05, 7.65, 8.18, 9.46 and 10.10) and additives (urea and arginine). |
Cartridges
The new HT Cartridge cuts your run times down to 10 minutes, gives you comparable results to the FC Cartridge, and you don't need methyl cellulose in your sample mixtures. With the original FC Cartridge, you'll need methyl cellulose in both the rinse and sample solutions.
| Part # | Description | Qty/Amt |
|---|---|---|
| 101701 | FC Cartridge (original cIEF cartridge). This cartridge has a 50 mm, 100 µm (I.D.) fluorocarbon-coated capillary and built-in electrolyte tanks. | 2/pkg |
Note: The HT Cartridge was developed and validated for the iCE3 only; we don't recommend using it on the iCE280.
Chemical Test Kits
These kits let you confirm the overall performance of your iCE system, and you can use the kit three different times. Test kits are available for both the FC and HT cartridges.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 101801 | FC Cartridge Chemical Test Kit. This kit includes anolyte, catholyte, 0.5% methyl cellulose, a hemoglobin stock solution and three vials of a standard solution (carrier ampholytes and pI markers in 0.35% methyl cellulose). |
Electrolyte Kit
Simplify your system setup with our pre-made analytical grade electrolyte solutions. You can use this kit with either the FC or the HT Cartridge.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 102506 | Electrolyte Kit. This kit includes 1 x 100 mL bottle of 0.08 M phosphoric acid in 0.1% methyl cellulose and 1 x 100 mL bottle of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide in 0.1% methyl cellulose. |
0.5% Methyl Cellulose Kit
0.5% methyl cellulose is needed to rinse the capillary between injections and minimize electroosmotic flow. You can use this kit with either the FC or the HT Cartridge.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 102505 | 0.5% Methyl Cellulose Kit. This kit includes 2 x 100 mL bottles, which are viscosity tested so your runs are consistent every time. |
1% Methyl Cellulose Kit
1% methyl cellulose is needed to maintain the viscosity of your samples on the FC Cartridge only.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 101876 | 1% Methyl Cellulose Kit. This kit includes a 100 mL bottle, which are viscosity tested so your runs are consistent every time. |
System Suitability Kits
These kits give you a handy way to check the performance of your iCE system up to 10 different times. Once you've prepared the test solutions, they're good for three days. Kits are available for both the FC and HT cartridges.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 102093 | FC Cartridge System Suitability Kit. This kit includes a hemoglobin stock solution and 10 vials of a standard solution (carrier ampholytes and pI markers in 0.35% methyl cellulose). |
TTM Solution Kits
Accurate transfer time measurements just give you more reproducible data, and reduce the amount of sample that you use too. Use the kit for approximately 150 measurements. TTM kits are available for both the FC and HT cartridges.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 102672 | FC Cartridge Transfer Time Measurement Kit. This kit includes 2 x 8 mL bottles of TTM solution for the FC Cartridge. |
| P-0000037-00 | HT Cartridge Transfer Time Measurement Kit. This kit includes 2 x 8 mL bottles of TTM solution for the HT Cartridge. |
Cartridge Wash Kit
This kit lets you wash and store your FC or HT Cartridge the right way.
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 045-207 | Cartridge Wash Kit. Includes 5 mL syringe with fittings and step-by-step instructions on how to rinse and store your cartridges. |
Individual Reagents
| Part # | Description |
|---|---|
| 046-575 | SimpleSol Protein Solubilizer for cIEF SimpleSol Protein Solubilizer, 200 mL. For use with Maurice, Maurice C. and iCE3 systems. |
pI Markers
We have a wide range of markers for pI determination that will give you both consistent and accurate measurement of isoelectric point on your iCE system. They can be used for whole-column and single-point capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF) detection to measure your sample protein's isoelectric point, and for quality control of sample analysis. You'll get 200 µL of pI marker stock solution in every vial.
