Pierce™ Protease Assay Kits are an ideal choice for performing routine assays necessary during the isolation of proteases, or for identifying the presence of contaminating proteases in protein samples
- No corrosive precipitants used
- Entire assay can be run in microplates
- Highly sensitive
- Faster and uses half the sample of unmodified casein-based protease assays
- Measure multiple samples simultaneously in ELISA plate readers
- Time/temperature/pH easily manipulated to optimize sensitivity
Each kit can detect proteases as low as 2ng/mL in less than one hour. Entire assays can be run in microplates and measured in ELISA plate readers. The colorimetric kit uses fully succinylated casein as a substrate. When the substrate is hydrolyzed, peptide fragments are released that will react with trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBSA) to produce a yellow color. The fluorescent kit is based on a FITC-labeled casein and can be used in either FRET or FP modes.
These protease assays are also ideal for studying pH or temperature vs. activity profiles of purified proteases.
