cAMP Cell-Based Assays

Cisbio Bioassays offers a line of three ready-to-use assays for measuring cAMP using HTRF® technology. Each kit is optimized for detecting a specific range of cAMP concentrations to allow fine tuning of assay sensitivity. These kits enable high quality, cell-based assay in 96-well or high throughput screening formats (384- or 1536-well).

Features:
  • Low false positive, false negative results
  • Stable EC50 from 30 minutes to 7 days
  • Miniaturization down to <10µl
  • Compatible with fresh or frozen cells
Applications:
  • Gs or Gi coupled receptor activation
  • Agonist / antagonist screening
  • Phosphodiesterase (PDE) monitoring
  • Adenylate cyclase activity assessment
  •  




Assay Principle:

 

cAMP kits are based on a competitive immunoassay using cryptate-labeled anti-cAMP and d2-labeled cAMP. d2 is our newest HTRF acceptor fluorophore whose small size eliminates EC50 drift.
To also satisfy all the robotics constraints, each kits are supplied with a 1 or 2 dispensing steps protocol after cell stimulation

cAMP cell-based two step protocol

Product Specifications:

 

Three kit groups to cover a broad range of cell-based assays.

With the introduction of Lumi4®-Tb cryptate, cAMP femto, the most sensitive cAMP assay is now available with two cryptates (europium or terbium). Both kits enable the detection of as little as 28 pM cAMP (0.6 fmoles/well in 20µl volume). This allows use of very low cell densities, 100 to 500 cells per well.

The cAMP dynamic 2 - wide range of cAMP concentrations ideal for a broad range of Gi/s assays.

The cAMP HiRange - well suited for HTS with extended signal-to-background ratios (Z' > 0.9) and for use with membrane preparations.
