About This Item
Recommended Products
Application
- in the detection of proteolytic activity using casein based protease assay[1]
- for testing the extracellular proteolytic activity of fungal strains[2]
- for quantifying mitochondrial protease activity[3]
- for measuring the protease production from soil solution[4]
Suitability
Quantity
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.

Seeking clarity on step 7 on the procedure. Should the supernatant be collected? How should it be done without capturing any precipitate/pellet? This seems to be affecting themeasurements.

If RIPA lysis buffer is used for cell lysis in cultured cells without isolating the mitochondria, will it have an impact on the protease detection when utilizing the PF0100-1KT Protease Fluorescent Detection Kit?
1 answer-
The QC tests for protease in the R0278 RIPA lysis buffer show no increase in background from the data, indicating no additional breakdown of the FITC-casein substrate when mixed with RIPA buffer. It is recommended that the use of R0278 or an equivalent, as this buffer is protease-free.

I want to use the protease fluorescent detection kit in cultured cells without isolating the mitochondria. If I use RIPA lysis buffer for cell lysis, will it affect the protease detection?
1 answer-
RIPA lysis buffer is compatible with this kit, provided that it is protease free. Please see the link below to review product R0278, a protease free RIPA buffer option:
