Application

Fluorescent Protease Detection Kit Video Protocol
Protease Fluorescent Detection Kit has been used:
  • in the detection of proteolytic activity using casein based protease assay
  • for testing the extracellular proteolytic activity of fungal strains
  • for quantifying mitochondrial protease activity
  • for measuring the protease production from soil solution

Suitability

Detection limit: approx. 50 ng trypsin

Quantity

Supplied with sufficient reagents for up to 200 one mL assays.
Supplied with sufficient reagents for up to 200 one mL assays.

The trichloroacetic acid (TCA) component is provided as 6.1 N TCA solution. 0.6 N TCA Solutions may be prepared by a 10-fold dilution of the desired volume of T0699 with ultrapure water. It is not necessary to dilute the entire volume of T0699 for immediate use of the kit.

Analysis Note

Tested for detection of all four proteolytic classes (serine, apartic, cysteine and metalloproteinases).

Use of the Protease Fluorescent Detection Kit to Determine Protease Activity

The Protease Fluorescent Detection Kit provides ready-to-use reagents for detecting the presence of protease activity. This simple assay to detect protease activity uses casein labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) as the substrate.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
