Gold Biotechnology IPTG
IPTG is an analog of galactose that is nonmetabolizable and inactivates the lac repressor to induce synthesis of β-galactosidase inE. coli. The expression of cloned genes under the control of the lac operon is induced by IPTG. IPTG is often used in the induction of recombinant proteins, is a substrate for thigalactoside transacetylase and has been reported to induce penicillinase in bacteria. IPTG is commonly used in cloning procedures that require induction of β-galactosidase and is most often used with X-Gal for blue/white bacterial colony screening. GoldBio’s is most cost effective IPTG on the market, without sacrificing quality or purity. Gold Biotechnology IPTG is Proven and Published™ and is a better way to generate the experimental results you need while focusing your budget on the things that really matter.
Gold Biotechnology LUCIFERIN
Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism. Bioluminescence occurs widely in marine vertebrates and invertebrates, as well as in some fungi, microorganisms and terrestrial invertebrates. Luciferin, the firefly substrate of luciferase, is a common reagent used throughout the biotechnology field. The injection of luciferin allows for the real-time, noninvasive monitoring of disease progression and/or drug efficacy in these model systems through Bioluminescence Imaging (BLI). Coelenterazine is a luminophore is the substrate for many luciferase enzymes, including Renilla reniformis, gaussia, and aequorins. It is commonly used to monitor reporter genes in BRET (Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer), ELISA and HTS methods. Gold Biotechnology’s luciferin and coelenterazine are Proven and Published™ to ensure a quality reagent with optimal potential.

Gold Biotechnology History:
Dr. Paul Gold
During the 1980s, Dr. Paul Gold stepped out from behind the bench believing researchers needed a low-cost, high-quality alternative for chemicals and reagents. Recognizing his knack for business, he began brewing the idea for a company during a time when startup incubators were nearly unheard of, and the Internet, social media and crowdfunding didn’t exist. Armed with a supportive wife, generous family members and helpful people within his network, Dr. Gold established GoldBio in 1986.
The original main office was situated in the former St. Louis Technology Center (now the location for the St. Louis Science Center), while the first lab space was located at St. Louis University. The ambitious startup began its journey selling three products: IPTG, X-Gal and X-Gluc.
Now, after almost 30 years, GoldBio has evolved significantly, expanding its catalog from three products to more than 3000 products. Throughout its history, GoldBio’s success has relied on its commitment to the success of those whom we supply. At GoldBio, we believe that putting our quality products in capable hands leads to discoveries that impact the entire world.
