The following are two alternatives to the GeneBLAzer In Vivo Detection Kit:
- LiveBLAzer FRET-B/G Loading Kit with CCF2-AM (Cat. No. K1032, K1025)
- LiveBLAzer FRET-B/G Loading Kit with CCF4-AM (Cat. No. K1095, K1096, K1030)
Concerning CCF2-AM and CCF4-AM, these molecules differ by two carbons in the bridge that links the coumarin moiety to the lactam ring. Both are in the membrane-permeable, esterified forms, and can be used for assays in intact cells. CCF4-AM has better solubility properties than CCF2-AM and is thus best suited for screening applications. In addition, CCF4-AM has slightly better FRET and thus slightly lower background than CCF2-AM.
Note: We also offer the loading solutions as a separate kit, Loading Solutions (Cat. No. K1026), and CCF2-AM is also available as a standalone product (Cat. No. K1023).
