Invitrogen™ D-Luciferin, Sodium Salt, 25 mg

Part of the luciferin/luciferase light-producing reaction

The ATP-dependent oxidation of luciferin by luciferase produces light, and this system is employed as a reporter in plants, bacteria, and mammalian cells. Because chemiluminescent techniques are virtually background-free, this reporter gene system is ideal for detecting low-level gene expression.

• Exhibits physical properties identical to those of natural luciferin
• Chemiluminescent after oxidation by luciferase
• Lluciferin sodium salt is readily soluble in aqueous buffers
