• Homogenous assay for active caspase 3/7.
• Breakthrough in cell lysis buffer and preservation of caspase activity.
• Results in a no-wash, one-step assay.
• No need to wash out media from cell samples, just add the reagent directly to your experimental samples.
• Easy to Use: No need to make cell lysates or run Western blots.
• Works with suspension and adherent cells.

Cell Technology’s APO 3/7 HTS Assay utilizes the quenched (z-DEVD)₂-R110 peptide substrate for caspase 3/7 detection. The absorption and emission properties of the R110 dye are suppressed when attached to the z-DEVD peptide sequence. When R110 is cleaved away, by active caspase3/7, form the quenching DEVD sequence, the free dye excites at 488nm and emits at 515-530 nm. As a result of a novel and proprietary Lysis Buffer System, the APO 3/7 HTS Assay is a homogenous platform that can be utilized for high throughput fluorescence plate reader applications. The reagent is directly added to the samples thus eliminating any wash steps.
