Application

Lumi-Light Western Blotting Substrate has been used in western blotting.

Lumi-Light Western Blotting Substrate is a chemiluminescent POD substrate for western blots. Routine detection of any antigen blotted on a PVDF or nitrocellulose membrane. It is suited for high-sensitivity routine western blotting, especially when quantification is required. The chemiluminescent signal persists for more than 3 hours, allowing multiple exposures to be taken.

Features and Benefits

Detect rare proteins: Lumi-Light substrate detects antigen in the range of 10 - 50pg. Multiple exposures possible: The signal is stable for more than three hours after substrate addition. Save sample material: Lumi-Light substrate detects less than 50-pg amounts of antigen. Save primary antibody: Due to the strong signal of the Lumi-Light substrate, primary antibody can be diluted up to 10-fold more than with colorimetric detection systems. Easy preparation of substrate solution: Just mix the two Lumi-Light components in a ratio of 1:1.ContentsLumi-Light Luminol/Enhancer Solution, 2 x 100mlLumi-Light Stable Peroxide Solution, 2 x 100ml

General description

As the technology for quantifying chemiluminescence advances, the substrates for chemiluminescence must also advance. For instance, the light emission of conventional enhanced luminol substrates substantially decreases within 30 minutes. In contrast, the chemiluminescence signal of the Lumi-Light substrate persists for more than three hours, and since exposures of only a few minutes are necessary, multiple exposures can be taken. The emission wavelength of the Lumi-Light substrate is 425nm.
