FAQ
What is the optimal temperature for using the SensoLyte® 520 TEV Protease Assay Kit?
The TEV protease remains active at temperatures as low as 4 °C, allowing you flexibility in your experimental setup.
Can I use this kit for other proteases?
This assay kit is specifically designed for TEV protease and may not accurately measure the activity of other proteases.
How do I interpret the results from the assay?
The increase in fluorescence signals a successful cleavage event, allowing you to quantify the activity of TEV protease in your samples.
