General description

Alkaline phosphatase, a metalloenzyme is a member of ectonucleotidases family. It is present in bile ducts, bone, intestine, placenta and tumors.

Application

Alkaline Phosphatase Blue Membrane Substrate Solution has been used:
  • to analyse direct alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity
  • to perform alkaline phosphatase assays with colorimetric system
  • to analyse direct alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity of the induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) line LND554SV.3

Prior to reaction with alkaline phosphatase, the BCIP® reagent is colorless to faint blue and the Nitro BT reagent is yellow. The two-component mixture develops a bluish-purple product with alkaline phosphatase in membrane-type assays. This substrate is not recommended for ELISA assays.

Physical form

A 2 component kit sufficient for preparing 400 mL of working substrate.
Supplied as a two-component buffered alkaline phosphatase substrate containing bromochloroindolyl phosphate (BCIP®) and Nitro Blue Tetrazolium (NBT/Thiazolyl Blue/Nitro BT)

Legal Information

BCIP is a registered trademark of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany

Colorimetric Alkaline Phosphatase and Peroxidase Substrate Detection Systems

Nitroblue Tetrazolium (NBT) is used with the alkaline phosphatase substrate 5-Bromo- 4-Chloro-3-Indolyl Phosphate (BCIP) in western blotting and immunohistological staining procedures. These substrate systems produce an insoluble NBT diformazan end product that is blue to purple in color and can be observed visually.

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