The Promega App provides reference information and tools for life scientists. It combines tools for use at the bench, such as calculators and annotatable protocols, with in-depth reference materials covering key topics in molecular and cell biology.

Features:

Quick Protocols (iPad only): Easily view, run and annotate Promega protocols. Run timers directly from the relevant steps, and when complete, email the annotated protocols for printing.

Biomath Calculators: Quickly calculate melting temperature, molarity, dilution, DNA and protein concentration, and more.

Restriction Enzyme Tools: Find an enzyme by name, recognition sequence or overhang and identify compatible buffers for double digests.

Protocols & Applications Guide: Use this section to learn more about molecular and cell biology, or to find example protocols for common molecular, cell biology and DNA analysis procedures.

Multimedia: Includes video protocols and animated demos. Can be viewed from within the Protocols & Applications Guide, or easily accessed via a separate menu.

Interactive Cell Signaling Pathways (iPad only): Explore two signaling pathways, MAPK/ERK and PI3K/mTOR, through interactive diagrams that link to further online resources, peer-reviewed literature and available products to aid in cell signaling research.
