Pierce™ D-Luciferin, Monopotassium Salt

Thermo Scientific Pierce D-Luciferin, Monopotassium Salt is formulated at greater than 99% purity to provide convenience and high performance at a low cost in reporter assays involving firefly luciferase.

Features of D-Luciferin, Monopotassium Salt:

• Molecular mass = 318.42 g/mol
• High purity, typically greater than 99.7%, as verified by HPLC and FTIR
• Great performance with in vitro applications
• Suitable for in vivo imaging

Luciferin is the substrate for bioluminescence reactions with firefly luciferase enzyme. Lyophilized potassium salt of firefly luciferin is stable and easily soluble, and is compatible with a wide variety of luciferase-based in vivo imaging and in vitro bioluminescent assays. Applications include ATP assays, gene reporter assays, high-throughput sequencing and various contamination assays throughout the biotechnology field. For in vivo imaging, the injection of luciferin in model systems enables real-time, non-invasive monitoring of disease progression and/or drug efficacy through bioluminescence.

Applications:
• Gene reporter assays
• ATP assays
• High throughput sequencing
• Contamination assays
• Bioluminescent in vivo imaging
• Drug screening
• Multiplexed assays to study off-target effects
• Signal transduction pathway analysis
