Summary
Gaithersburg, MD, August 22, 2008 --( Proteins derived from the EHS sarcoma have been found to harbor murine viruses such as LDEV, which may not be detected by MAP testing.Trevigen has been a long-standing provider of quality reagents and kits for researchers investigating programmed cell death and DNA damage and repair.Cell adhesion, migration, growth and differentiation are all studied using mouse laminin I along with other specialized proteins available from Trevigen, Inc.Proteins derived from the EHS sarcoma have been found to harbor murine viruses such as LDEV, which may not be detected by MAP testing.Viruses may be present in low enough concentrations to be beneath the threshold of detection for the standard MAP Assays.To solve these problems Trevigen has developed a new (patent applied for) manufacturing process which preserves both the biochemical integrity and the biological performance of mouse laminin I while eliminating the problem of low concentration viruses.Trevigen has been a long-standing provider of quality reagents and kits for researchers investigating programmed cell death and DNA damage and repair.
