Only ICN offers you a truly complete line of environmentally safe LSC cocktails. Whether your laboratory requirements call for a general purpose or an application specific cocktail, ICN has a non-toxic formulation custom suited to your work. We are working towards serving the biomedical community while minimizing environmental harm. CytoScin ES is specially formulated to resist the chemiluminescence provoked by samples containing peroxides, alkaline bases and tissue solubilizers such as Hyamine Hydroxide .
Low viscosity allows rapid penetration of most filters, including glass fiber and cellulose acetate.
CytoScint ES has a high counting efficiency and will resist quenching from agents such as alcohol and organic solvents. Samples with high ionic concentrations will count most efficiently in this region. It will accommodate a wide range of aqueous and non-aqueous samples, e.g., deionized water, phosphate buttered salines, PBS with gelatin or BSA, sucrose gradients, salt solutions, 0.1 N HCl, NaOH, urine, serum, alcohols, acetonitrile, steroids, lipids, and more. EcoLume was specially formulated to accommodate moderate to large aqueous samples and samples with a high ionic concentration. It is extremely efficient with 3 H and 14 C samples.
