Firefly & Renilla Dual Luciferase Single Tube Assay Kit
For an extremely Sensitive, Accurate & Fast measure Firefly and Renilla Luciferase activities in transfected Cell Reporters
Product Overview:
Firefly & Renilla Dual Luciferase Single Tube Assay is an extremely sensitive, accurate and fast Kit for the sequential quantitative measurement of both Luciferase activities in a single Protein extract.
It exploits the differing biochemical requirements for Luminescence of the Firefly (Photinus pyralis) and sea pansy (Renilla reniformis) Luciferase Proteins. Both, have proven to be highly effective as gene reporters.

Specifications
Firefly Luciferase has an apparent molecular weight of 62 kDa, which is active as a monomer and does not require subsequent processing for its activity. The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of reduced luciferin in the presence of ATP-Mg2+ and oxygen to generate CO2, AMP, PPi, oxyluciferin, and produces a flash of light that is proportional to the quantity of Luciferase in the reaction mixture.
Renilla Luciferase (Rluc) is a 36-kDa monomeric protein that is glycosylated in its natural host; however, this posttranslational modification is not required for its activity. The luminescence generated by Renilla Luciferase utilizes O2 and coelenterazine. The dissimilarity in the substrates for the two Luciferases makes it possible to selectively distinguish between the luminescent reactions for each enzyme. The luminescence of the Firefly Luciferase can be measured by addition of the luciferin reagent, and this reaction is subsequently quenched while simultaneously activating the luminescence of the Renilla Luciferase. Thus, one can sequentially measure the luminescence of both reporters in a single reaction tube.

It works perfectly, the lysis step is faster than other well known kits and the results are equally good with almost half the prize.
We have been using it a lot in the past months and, we will not be switching back to the competition.
Fast protocol, very good signal and a very competitive price. We switched last year from a very well known dual luciferase kit to Canvax, and the only thing we regreting is not having tried this kit before.
