Biochemical and cell-based assays
Experience the flexibility, speed, and simplicity to design at any scale or throughput.
Metabolism assay kits
Explore metabolism assay kits for live cells, lysates, and biofluids.
Cell health assays
Find cell health assay kits for apoptosis, viability, and cytotoxicity analysis.
Explore our extensive range of assay kits, including metabolism assays, enzyme activity assays, and cell health and other cell-based assays. We manufacture over 40,000 ready-to-use, QC-validated biochemical and cell-based assay kits each year to save you time in in-house assay development.
Our assay kits are designed for use with colorimetric, fluorometric, and luminescent microplate readers, with samples such as plasma, urine, cell lysates, tissue extracts, and cultured cells.
Metabolism assays
Our metabolism assay kits are used to:
- Quantify the levels of metabolites, such as glycogen, glucose, and fatty acids
- Quantify the amount of enzyme activity for enzymes such as LDH and ATP synthase
- Analyze the state and throughput of metabolic processes and pathways, such as by measuring mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP levels
- Quantify enzyme activity and the levels of chemicals associated with oxidative stress, such as by measuring lipid peroxidation
Enzyme activity assays
In addition to a wide array of enzyme activity assay kits for metabolic enzymes, we also manufacture and supply assay kits for:
- Kinases
- Histone modification enzymes involved in epigenetics
- Cathepsins and caspases
and many other enzymes.
Our enzyme activity assay kits are based on substrates that, either directly after action by the enzyme or indirectly following action by a cascade of enzymes, produce a fluorometric or colorimetric readout.
Cell health assays
Our cell health assays are designed to allow you to study cell viability, proliferation, cytotoxicity, and other fundamental cellular processes.
When treating cells or animals with experimental treatments, it's important to run cell health assays while measuring the levels of individual proteins and other cellular markers.
Our cell health assays include:
- Apoptosis assays
- Cytotoxicity assays and cell viability assays
- Cell proliferation assays
- Senescence assays
- Cell cycle assays
- Comet assays
- Live dead assays
