MoBiTec to Offer ProteoGREEN™-gGlu, a Fluorogenic Probe for Specific Detection of Cancer Cells

Goettingen, Germany, September 18, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Next to the quickly established state-of-the-art molecular diagnostic products manufactured by AmoyDx, MoBiTec GmbH, Germany, is offering a unique cancer cell detection probe: ProteoGREEN™-gGlu

Developed and manufactured by Japan's Goryo Chemicals, Inc., (http://goryochemical.com), the fluorogenic probe ProteoGREEN™-gGlu constitutes one of the easiest means to detect and image cancer cells by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

ProteoGREEN™-gGlu is rapidly activated by g-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT), which is known to be a tumor-associated enzyme, to give a highly fluorescent compound. The membrane-permeable ProteoGREEN™-gGlu is applicable to live cells or in vivo imaging of cancer cells.

Features:

• Specific for cancer cells
• High signal-to-noise ratio
• GGT-activatable fluorescent probe
• ProteoGREEN™-gGlu is almost non-fluorescent in the absence of GGT
