NanoLuc® and NanoBiT® Luciferase Substrate for Animal Imaging Studies​

It can be challenging to purify sufficient high-quality protein from mammalian cells. Boost protein recovery 30-60% with an optimized covalent protein tag, called HaloTag®. This complete kit offers strong improvements in recovery, purity, cost and protein functionality over historical FLAG® and poly-His tag purification strategies.

The DPPIV-Glo™ Protease Assay is a homogeneous, luminescent assay that measures dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) activity. DPPIV is a serine protease that cleaves N-terminal dipeptides from polypeptides with L-proline or L-alanine at the penultimate position. The DPPIV-Glo™ Assay provides a proluminescent DPPIV substrate, Gly-Pro-aminoluciferin, in a buffer system optimized for DPPIV and luciferase activities. The addition of a…

Universal, HTS Kinase Screening Assays Use higher ATP concentrations: Linear response up to 500μM ATP. Use any kinase and kinase-substrate combination, including peptide, protein, lipid, and sugar substrates. Perform the assay without substrate modifications. Obtain reliable results: Z´-factor values routinely >0.7. Reduce false hits: Luminescence is much less susceptible to interference from library compounds t…

The ONE-Glo™ Luciferase Assay System provides a highly sensitive, robust, homogeneous assay for detection of firefly luciferase reporter gene expression in mammalian cells. Ideally suited for high- and ultrahigh-throughput applications, the ONE-Glo™ Assay contains a new luciferase substrate, resulting in a reagent that is more stable, more tolerant to sample components, and has less odor than standard luciferase assay reagents…

The ApoTox-Glo™ Triplex Assay combines three assay chemistries to easily assess viability, cytotoxicity and apoptosis events in the same cell-based assay well. First, viability and cytotoxicity are determined by measuring two differential protease biomarkers simultaneously with the addition of a single nonlytic reagent containing two peptide substrates. The live-cell protease activity is restricted to intact viable cells and i…

The ECL Western Blotting Substrate is a highly sensitive non-radioactive, enhanced luminol-based chemiluminescent substrate for the detection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on immunoblots.

The ECL Western Blotting Substrate is a highly sensitive non-radioactive,…

The ONE-Glo™ + Tox Assay combines luciferase assay chemistry with a cell viability marker to better understand reporter gene expression in the context of cell health. The assay uses a two-step, addition-only process to make these measurements in a single well of a plate, negating the need to run parallel assays. The first part of the assay is a nonlytic fluorescence assay (CellTiter-Fluor™ Cell Viability Assay) that measure…

The Griess Reagent System measures nitrite (NO2–), which is one of two primary stable and nonvolatile breakdown products of nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide is an important physiological messenger and effector molecule in many biological systems, including immunological, neuronal and cardiovascular tissues.
