We will gladly evaluate novel research reagents and software. We will provide written report with specific comments on pros and cons along with suggestions for improvements.We have previously provided beta testing for LI-COR, Promega, and Corning.
Kinetic and endpoint assay for extracellular ATP release from cultured cells with the sensitivity at low nM range.
Many cells release their ATP into extracellular space in response to various triggers, such as microbial toxins, mechanical stimulation, apoptosis, etc. Extracellular ATP (eATP) and its metabolites have profound effects on migration and activation of leukocytes, inflammation, and epithelial and endothelial barriers during infection. Using a luminescence-based assay we can measure eATP in real time for kinetic studies or at predetermined time points. We have shown eATP release from human lung epithelial cells after exposure to a pore-forming toxin from S. aureus (Lizak & Yarovinsky, Cell Host Microbe. 2012 Jan 19; 11(1): 70–80).

"PERFECTLY DONE!!!!!!"
"Dr. Yaronvinsky was very thorough and detailed every step in the way and in the finalization of the experiment. His input and experience helped to address issues that improved the quality and information gathered from the experiment. I was able to gather more information than intended thanks to him. I would recommend him and work with him again."
"Very efficient and communicates well with you every step of the way. Will not continue until he knows you are satisfied with how the experiment should go. Very professional and advice very helpful. Expert advice offered every step of the say."
