An assay is an investigative procedure in laboratory medicine, pharmacology, environmental biology, and molecular biology for qualitatively assessing or quantitatively measuring the presence or functional activity of the analyte, or the entity being targeted by the assay. Generally, assays involve biological materials or phenomena which tend to be intrinsically more complex in composition or in behavior than what can be handled by traditional chemical analysis and titration.

Protein quantitation assay kits, CB™ Protein assay
Supplier: G-Biosciences
CB™ Protein Assay, a Coomassie dye based protein assay based on the Bradford Protein Assay, is suitable for the simple and rapid estimation of protein concentration. The binding of protein to the dye results in a colour change from brown to blue. The change in colour density is proportional to protein concentration. Protein estimation can be performed using as little as 0,5 µg protein.

Fluorescent protease assay, Fluoro™
Supplier: G-Biosciences
The Fluoro™ Protease Assay Kit is designed for the quantitative determination of proteases present in a protein sample. The assay uses fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labelled casein as a general protease substrate. The fluorescein label on the FITC-casein is highly quenched. When the proteases present in the sample of interest digest the FITC-casein substrate into smaller peptides, the quenching of the fluorescence label is relieved and the fluorescence of the substrate is increased. The fluorescence of the FITC-labeled peptide is measured with excitation at 485 nm and emission at 530 nm to determine protease activity. The kit detects picogram level of proteases present in the sample.
