Why India Is Emerging as a Global Hub for ELISA Kit Manufacturing?

Image
ELISA kits (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) are used to detect proteins, antibodies, and hormones. Labs and hospitals use them to diagnose diseases, track infections, and monitor health. With rising awareness & need for fast, accurate testing, the market for these kits is growing across the world. As demand grows worldwide, more countries now rely on India for ELISA kits. Here's why India is becoming a leading source for ELISA kit manufacturing. Skilled Workforce and R&D Focus India has a large pool of trained scientists and lab technicians. Many of them have studied or trained abroad. This skilled talent helps local companies match global standards. Top universities and research centers also support innovation in diagnostics. Private firms are investing in research and development. They’re working on improving test accuracy and reducing time to results. Some are even creating kits that can be used outside of labs, in smaller clinics or rural settings. This mix of talent...

How to Read and Interpret Prestained Protein Ladders Correctly?

Image
Regardless of whether you are conducting SDS-PAGE for the very first time or are an ongoing user within your laboratory, understanding how to correctly read your protein ladders is crucial in proper protein sizing. These dye-marked molecular weight markers serve as a method through which you can estimate your target proteins' molecular weight, as much as an eye marker as your gel is running. Let’s break it down without the fluff. What Are Prestained Protein Ladders? Prestained protein ladders are molecular weight markers that contain an added dye. This means you can actually see the bands moving up the gel during electrophoresis! This is very handy when you speed up electrophoresis, to see how far everything has moved, and to confirm that your electrophoresis is functioning as expected. Unlike unstained ladders that require post-run staining, prestained ones are visible right off the bat—no extra steps needed. These ladders include some proteins of known molecular weights, and the...
