Phosphatase-catalyzed hydrolysis of Sun Red phosphate (SRP) yields the Sun Red fluorophore that can be excited with the 633 nm laser with emission of ~660 nm. Although Sun Red is readily excited at 633 nm with red emission of ~660 nm, SRP has very minimal absorption at 633 nm without red emission, making SRP one of the most sensitive NIR phosphatase sensors. Please do not use DMSO to make stock solution since it significantly increases assay background.

Example protocol


AT A GLANCE

Protocol summary

  1. Prepare and add 10 - 50 µM SunRed™ Phosphate in Tris buffer (50 µL)
  2. Add alkaline phosphatase standards and/or test samples (50 µL)
  3. Incubate at room temperature or 37°C for 30 to 120 minutes
  4. Monitor fluorescence intensity at Ex/Em = 620/660 nm (cut off 640 nm)

Important notes
The following is the recommended protocol for alkaline phosphatase assay in solution. The protocol only provides a guideline, should be modified according to the specific needs.

PREPARATION OF STOCK SOLUTION

Unless otherwise noted, all unused stock solutions should be divided into single-use aliquots and stored at -20 °C after preparation. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

1. SunRed™ Phosphate stock solution:
Prepare a 2 to 10 mM stock solution of SunRed™ Phosphate in sterile water. Note: The stock solution should be used promptly. Note: Do not use DMSO, ETOH or METH to make stock solution since it significantly increases assay background. Note: Protect from light.

PREPARATION OF WORKING SOLUTION

SunRed™ Phosphate working solution (2X):
On the day of the experiment, either dissolve SunRed™ Phosphate solid in sterile H2O or thaw an aliquot of the SunRed™ Phosphate stock solution at room temperature. Prepare a 2X working solution of 10 to 50 µM in 100 mM Tris buffer or buffer of your choice, pH 8 to 9. SunRed™ Phosphate final concentration of 5 to 25 μM is recommended for measuring alkaline phosphatase activity in solution.

SAMPLE EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOL

  1. Add 50 µL of 2X SunRed™ Phosphate working solution into each well of the alkaline phosphatase standard, blank control, and test samples to make the total alkaline phosphatase assay volume of 100 µL/well. For a 384-well plate, add 25 µL of sample and 25 µL of 2X SunRed™ Phosphate working solution into each well.

  2. Incubate the reaction for 30 to 120 minutes at the desired temperature, protected from light.

  3. Monitor the fluorescence increase at Ex/Em = 620/660 nm (cut off at 640 nm) with a fluorescence plate reader.
