5.1.3
Glow Type Luminescence
The specifications only apply to 96 well plates.
Luminescence can only be measured in 96 well plates.
Parameters Characteristics
Sensitivity
< 0.4 10-6 DEA activity units/well of molecular biology
grade alkaline phosphatase (20 µl/well) using
CDP-Star (Tropix) chemiluminescent substrate mix with
Emerald-II enhancer (100 µl/well) in a Greiner 96 well
white plate. Use of the provide cover plate greatly
reduces the cross-talk.
0.4 10-6 DEA activity units/well correspond to 200
fg/well of alkaline phosphatase when using a lot of 2000
DEA activity units/mg protein.
