Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Firefly Luciferase Flash Assay Kit, 1000 Reactions

Thermo Scientific™ Pierce™ Firefly Luciferase Flash Assay Kit, 1000 Reactions

The Thermo Scientific Pierce Firefly Luciferase Flash Assay Kit provides reagents to measure Red firefly luciferase activity in whole cell producing a very strong flash signal which decays rapidly.

Thermo Scientific Pierce Firefly Luciferase Flash Assay Kit contains reagents to measure the activity of firefly luciferase in mammalian whole cell lysates. Containing a convenient lysis buffer, assay buffer and firefly substrate, this kit provides a complete reagent system for the intracellular detection of promoter or pathway activity. Light output resulting from the luciferase reaction is captured using a luminometer and can be correlated with the amount of firefly luciferase protein produced and used to determine the activity of the promoter driving firefly expression. These reagents are optimized to work with Thermo Scientific Firefly Luc Plasmids; however, the Flash Assay Kit may be used to detect the activity of other firefly or ATP-dependent luciferases utilizing D-luciferin as a substrate.

For use with: Luminometer (Microplate)
