Amplite® Fluorimetric Lead (II) Ion Quantitation Kit

Lead is a highly poisonous metal to human beings, especially young children. Lead interferes with cell signaling and gene expression, causing severe damages to the brain, liver, kidney, and even death. Because of its long history in mining and smelting, as well as widespread use in battery, paint and gasoline, lead pollution in soil and groundwater has been one of the most serious environmental problems. Amplite® Fluorimetric Lead (II) Ion Quantitation Kit provides a robust method for detecting lead (II) ion in solution. It uses Lead Green™, a selective and sensitive green fluorescence probe that can be easily monitored with a fluorescence microplate reader (Ex/Em = 490/530 nm). The Amplite® Fluorimetric Lead (II) Ion Quantitation Kit can be performed in a convenient 96-well or 384-well microplate format and easily adapted to automation with no separation steps required. The assay can be completed within 30 minutes. With the Amplite® Fluorimetric Lead (II) Ion Quantitation Kit, as little as 4µM lead (II) ion was detected.
