Find answers to common questions about our enzyme activity assay services.
We characterize all major enzyme classes including hydrolases, transferases, oxidoreductases, lyases, isomerases, and ligases. Our platform handles proteases, lipases, kinases, phosphatases, glycosidases, and many more enzyme types from various sources.
We offer continuous monitoring assays (fluorescence/absorbance), endpoint assays (HPLC/LC-MS), and discontinuous time-point assays. High-throughput 96-well and 384-well formats are available for rapid screening applications.
All assays include appropriate positive and negative controls, replicate measurements, and statistical analysis. We follow strict SOPs and can accommodate GLP documentation requirements for regulatory studies.
Standard kinetics profiling completes in 1-2 weeks. Comprehensive characterization studies typically require 3-4 weeks. Rush services are available upon request for time-critical projects.
Yes, we offer inhibitor screening against your target enzyme including FDA-approved drug libraries, custom compound collections, and natural product extracts. IC50 determination and selectivity profiling against off-target enzymes are included.
