ApoProbe : Caspase activity assay kit
Caspase is a protease that plays an important role in apoptosis. Active caspase can cleave fluorogenic synthetic peptide substrate. ApoProbe kits provide a simple and sensitive means for measuring caspase activity in apoptosis induced samples by Fluorometic method (exitation 380nm, emission 440nm)
 
 
ApoProbe-1, a caspase-1 activity assay kit includes a substrate (Ac-YVAD-AMC, AMC-labeled 4-mer peptide that can be specifically cleaved by caspase-1) and an inhibitor (Ac-YVAD-CHO, a 4-mer peptide blocked with aldehyde).
 
 
ApoProbe-3, a caspase-3 activity assay kit includes a substrate (Ac-DEVD-AMC, AMC-labeled 4-mer peptide that can be specifically cleaved by caspase-3) and an inhibitor (Ac-DEVD-CHO, a 4-mer peptide blocked with aldehyde).
 
 
ApoProbe-8, a caspase-8 activity assay kit includes a substrate (Ac-IETD-AMC, AMC-labeled 4-mer peptide that can be specifically cleaved by caspase-8) and an inhibitor (Ac-IETD-CHO, a 4-mer peptide blocked with aldehyde).
