## Abstract Tubulin is an attractive and established target for anticancer therapy. To date, the only method to determine the binding of inhibitor to tubulin has been competitive radioligand binding assays. We developed a nonβradioactive mass spectrometry (MS) binding assay to study the tubulin bin

Abstract
A single step, separation free competitive binding reaction between the fluorescent antibiotic mithramycin and actinomycinβD for common binding sites on DNA coated 10 ΞΌm diameter microspheres is described. The fluorescence of the microspheres is measured with a flowcytometer. In the presence of a constant amount of mithramycin, the microsphere fluorescence is inversely proportional to actinomycinβD concentration.

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) and thrombosis are serious complications of heparin therapy. Recently, we have reported a practical and rapid functional flow cytometric assay (FCA) for the diagnosis of HIT with high specificity and sensitivity compared with the radioactive serotonin-release a
Glycoprotein VI (GPVI) is the major signaling receptor for collagen on platelets. Recent studies suggest that the surface density of GPVI is related to the activation of platelets by collagen. To measure the level of GPVI on platelets, a mouse polyclonal antibody BJ010 was prepared using an amplifie
Background: The therapeutic option of prophylactic platelet (PLT) transfusion in cases of severe thrombocytopenia critically depends on the availability of accurate and precise counts because clinical decisions are widely based on decision or trigger points. Although often applied in current practic
