Amplite® Fluorimetric Alkaline Phosphatase Assay Kit *Blue Fluorescence*

Alkaline phosphatase dose response was measured with Amplite® Fluorimetric Alkaline Phosphatase Assay Kit in a solid black 96-well plate using a Gemini microplate reader (Molecular Devices). As low as 0.01 mU/well of alkaline phosphatase can be detected with 30 minutes incubation (n=3). RFU read at Ex/Em = 360/450 nm (Cutoff = 435 nm).

Alkaline phosphatase is a highly sensitive enzyme for ELISA, immuno-histochemical, Northern, Southern and Western blot applications. It is widely used in various biological assays (in particular, immunoassays) and ELISA-based diagnostics. This Amplite® Alkaline Phosphatase Assay Kit uses MUP, a fluorogenic phosphatase substrate, to quantify alkaline phosphatase activity in solutions, in cell extracts as well as on solid surfaces (such as PVDF membranes). The kit provides all the essential components with our optimized 'mix and read' assay protocol that is compatible with HTS liquid handling instruments.

Protocol summary

  1. Prepare Alkaline Phosphatase working solution (50 µL)
  2. Add Alkaline Phosphatase standards and/or test samples (50 µL)
  3. Incubate at RT or 37 °C for 10 - 30 minutes
  4. Monitor fluorescence intensity at Ex/Em = 360/450 nm (Cutoff = 435 nm)

Important notes
Thaw all the kit components at room temperature before starting the experiment.

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. MUP Plus™ stock solution (250X):
Add 100 µL of sterile H2O into the vial of MUP Plus™ (Component A) to make 250X MUP Plus™ stock solution. The MUP Plus™ stock solution should be used promptly.

2. Alkaline Phosphatase standard solution (100 mU/mL):
Add 100 µL of distilled H2O with 0.1% BSA (H2O-0.1% BSA) to Alkaline Phosphatase Standard (Component C, 10 units) to generate 100 units/mL Alkaline Phosphatase standard solution.

PREPARATION OF STANDARD SOLUTION

Alkaline Phosphatase standard

For convenience, use the Serial Dilution Planner: https://www.aatbio.com/tools/serial-dilution/11952

Add 10 μL of 100 units/mL Alkaline Phosphatase standard solution into 990 μL of H2O-0.1% BSA to generate 1,000 mU/mL Alkaline Phosphatase standard solution. Take 1,000 mU/mL standard solution to perform 1:10 in H2O-0.1% BSA to get 100 mU/mL standard solution (AS7). Then take 100 mU/mL standard solution (AS7) and perform 1:3 serial dilutions in H2O-0.1% BSA to get serially diluted Alkaline Phosphatase standards (AS6 - AS1). Note: Unused portion of diluted Alkaline Phosphatase standard solution should be discarded.

PREPARATION OF WORKING SOLUTION

Add 20 μL of 250X MUP Plus™ stock solution into 5 mL  Assay Buffer (Component B) to make Alkaline Phosphatase working solution. Note: Keep from light. Prepare fresh Alkaline Phosphatase working solution for each experiment.

Run alkaline phosphate assay in supernatants:

  1. Prepare Alkaline Phosphatase standards (AS), blank controls (BL), and test samples (TS) according to the layout provided in Tables 1 and 2. For a 384-well plate, use 25 µL of reagent per well instead of 50 µL.

  2. Add 50 µL of Alkaline Phosphatase working solution to each well of 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 Alkaline Phosphatase working solution into each well instead, for a total volume of 50 µL/well.

  3. Incubate the reaction at the desired temperature for 10 to 30 minutes, protected from light.

  4. Monitor the fluorescence increase with a fluorescence plate reader at Excitation = 360 ± 10 nm, Emission = 450 ± 10 nm (Cutoff = 435 nm).

Run alkaline phosphatase assay in cells:

  1. Treat the cells as desired.

  2. Add equal volume of Alkaline Phosphatase working solution into each cell well (such as 100 µL/96-well plate, or 50 µL/384-well plate). Note: Alternatively, remove the growth medium from the cell plate, and make 1:1 dilution of the 5 mL Alkaline Phosphatase working solution with 5 mL distilled H2O. Then add 100 µL (for a 96-well plate) or 50 uL (for a 384-well plate) of 1:1 diluted working solution into the cell wells.

  3. Incubate the reaction at the desired temperature for 30 to 60 minutes, protected from light.

  4. Monitor the fluorescence increase with a fluorescence plate reader at Excitation = 360 ± 10 nm, Emission = 450 ± 10 nm (Cutoff = 435 nm).
