Purpose
|
Fluorometer calibration: The fluorometer is calibrated using known concentrations of free AFC (Excitation = 400 nm, Emission = 505 nm) to generate a calibration curve of fluorescence versus μ-moles AFC. Samples: Can be either purified or partially purified enzyme preparations. Application to crude cell lysates has not been confirmed. If crude cell lysates are to be assayed, the non- specific protease background must be determined using our Caspase-8/FLICE Inhibitor, Z-IETD-FMK.
