MMP Collagenase Activity Assay Kit - 96 assays
Collagenases (MMP-1, MMP-8, and MMP-13) are members of a family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) which are able to degrade components of the extracellular matrix.The CHEMICON MMP Collagenase Activity Assay Kit provides a quick, efficient and sensitive system for evaluation of collagenase activity in serum, cell lysates, supernatants, and other samples, or collagenase inhibitor screening. The 96-well format of the kit is significantly faster than traditional zymography for evaluation of multiple samples, offers the versatility of 8 x 12 strip well design, can be easily measured with a microplate reader, and contains purified Human MMP-1 as a positive control. Assay `time` is approximately 4 hours. Application: Method: Species: Storage:Store at 2-8°C
