Description:
This kit contains synthetic D-luciferin, the primary substrate of the firefly luciferase light producing system, as well as a luciferase assay buffer (10 mL, for a 1 mM reagent concentration), and other reagents, enough to perform 1000 assays using a microtiterplate format (100 uL reaction volume, 0.1 mM final reaction concentration).
The synthetic beetle luciferin substrate contained in the kit is also available separately as a lyophilized powder D-Luciferin, Product M0237. Consult the Product information sheet (above) for more details on the assay protocol.
