Description

Overview
Neutral protease (NP) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes peptide bonds under neutral conditions to yield peptides and free amino acids. Its substrate specificity and mild reaction conditions make it suitable for analytical activity measurement in laboratory workflows.

Principle
The reagent enables measurement of NP activity by catalyzing the hydrolysis of casein to release tyrosine under neutral conditions. Tyrosine reduces phosphomolybdate compounds to form a tungsten-blue complex in alkaline medium. The chromophore has a characteristic absorbance at 680 nm; NP activity is determined by the change in absorbance (ΔA) using the Folin detection method and a tyrosine standard curve.

Product details

  • Reference standard equation: y = 0.8108x + 0.0072 (R2 = 0.9999)
  • Standard linear range: 0.05–1.2 μmol/mL


Technical specifications
  • Sample throughput: designed for batch processing of up to 50 samples per kit using a 96-well plate
  • Sensitivity: linear response within the specified tyrosine range
  • Readout: absorbance at 680 nm
  • Compatibility: standard microplate readers that measure 680 nm


Procedure notes
  • If the measured ΔA is small, extend the first reaction step to 15–25 minutes and adjust calculations accordingly
  • Prepare standard curve with provided tyrosine standard; verify linearity before sample measurement
  • Run appropriate blanks and controls to account for matrix effects


Storage and safety
  • Store reagents according to manufacturer instructions (refer to label) and avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles
  • For in vitro laboratory use only; follow institutional biosafety and waste‑disposal procedures
  • Observe standard handling precautions for biochemical reagents
