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.

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.

Protein quantitation assay kits, CB-X™ Protein assay
Supplier: G-Biosciences
CB-X™ Protein Assay is a Coomassie dye based protein assay based on the Bradford Protein Assay. For protein samples in simple, uncomplicated aqueous buffers CB-X™ is a highly sensitive, single reagent assay that can be performed in 5 minutes. For complicated protein samples, CB-X™ Protein Assay is supplied with reagents to clean up the samples and remove all reagents and chemicals that interfere with accurate protein estimation in a single step. These reagents include detergents, chaotropes, reducing agents, alkylating agents, sugars, high salt concentrations, buffering agents and chelating agents. The clean up stage and subsequent protein assay is performed in a single tube to ensure no protein loss and to maintain the accuracy of the assay.

Cell viability assay kits
Supplier: Biotium
MTT, XTT, and resazurin are reduced by mitochondrial metabolic activity to yield coloured or fluorescent products, and thus are useful for and assaying cell viability and quantitating cell number. MTT and XTT are reduced to coloured formazin salts that can be measured by absorbance. MTT generates an insoluble formazin salt, requiring cell lysis before the absorbance can be measured, while XTT does not require cell lysis for measurement. Resazurin is a non-fluorescent blue dye that is reduced to the pink fluorescent compound resorufin, which can be measured by fluorescence or absorbance.

Calcein-AM cell viability assay kits
Supplier: Biotium
Calcein-AM is a non-fluorescent, membrane permeable compound. Esterase activity in the cytoplasm of viable cells converts calcein-AM to the green fluorescent, membrane impermeant compound calcein, which is retained in viable cells with intact plasma membranes. The Viability/Cytotoxicity Assay kit for Animal Live & Dead Cells pairs calcein-AM with the vital dye ethidium homodimer III for quantitation of live and dead cells.
