    The Blyscan™ Assay is a quantitative dye-binding method for the analysis of sulfated proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans.

    Sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) forms that can be measured; soluble salt extracts from:

    1. in vitro studies where extracellular matrix components are released by live cells into the cell culture medium;
    2. elastic, fibrous and hyaline cartilages;
    3. arteries, lung, skin and other material containing extracellular matrix (connective tissue);
    4. solid tumour specimens;
    5. cell and tissue extracts;
    6. aliquots from protein chromatography fractions
    7. sulfated glycosaminoglycans in amniotic fluid and urine samples can be measured;
    8. the assay may be adopted to detect and/or measure sulfated glycosaminoglycan degradative enzymes, and;
    9. the N- and O-sulfated glycosaminoglycan ratio can be measured
