TESTIMONIAL

One of our issues was that we could obtain only a limited number of cells, which is not enough for canonical ChIP-seq protocols. To solve this issue, we used the Diagenode ChIPmentation solution composed of iDeal ChIP-seq Kit for Transcription Factor, TAG Kit for ChIPmentation, and 24 SI for ChIPmentation. We performed ChIPmentation with IP-Star automated system for GATA6 in 2 million GATA6-overxpressing iPS cells. The result showed clear signal/noise ratio and was highly reproducible. This solution also worked in vitro differentiated definitive endoderm cells (data not shown).

  •  Testimonials

    We were very happy with the method.  It gave good results in the end, and required much smaller samples than we need to reliably perform conventional ChIP-seq.
    In our view, the main advantages of the ChIPmentation kit compared to our conventional ChIP-seq protocol are (most important first):

    • smaller sample requirement,
    • simpler workflow with less that can go wrong,
    • slightly higher resolution and signal: noise ratio.

    Researcher from University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis, Nice, France

    I have been using Diagenode products to perform ChIP-seq during the last three years and I am very satisfied, with the Bioruptor, the kits and the antibodies. I have used the iDeal ChIP-seq kit for Histones and the iDeal ChIP-seq kit for Transcription Factors with very successful and reproducible results. Once I tried to ChIP histones with a home-made protocol and it worked much worse in comparison with Diagenode kits. In other occasion, I tried a non-Diagenode antibody for a transcription factor and I also got much poor results, however with the Diagenode antibody I always got very nice results. I strongly recommend the use of Diagenode products.

    Dr. Francisca Martinez Real - Development and Disease Research Group - Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin, Germany

    There are so many ChIP-related products on the market, but I feel so lucky that I have been using the ones from Diagenode since I started my CHIP-seq project. I have used their iDeal CHIP-seq Kit for Transcription Factors and MicroPlex Library Prep Kit v2. Both of them are fantastic and very reproducible. With the very-well written protocols, you will just be home and dry. Particularly, I want to thank the technical support, who is very patient, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend my colleagues to use the CHIP products from Diagenode.
