Cayman’s Protein Determination (BCA) Kit is a quantitative assay that can be used with various buffers, water, plasma, serum, urine, and cell lysates. The assay has a dynamic range of 25 to 2,000 µg/ml and a lower limit detection (LLOD) of approximately 22 µg/ml.

Cayman’s Caspase-4 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit provides a robust and easy-to-use platform for identifying novel inhibitors of human caspase-4, a major upstream effector of non-canonical inflammasome activation. The assay uses a caspase-4-specific fluorogenic substrate, Ac-LEVD-AFC. Caspase-4 cleaves this substrate generating free AFC, which can be easily quantified using a fluorescence plate reader at excitation and emission wavelengths of 400 and 505 nm, respectively. The potent and reversible caspase-4 inhibitor AC-LEVD-CHO is included as a positive control.

Cayman’s Caspase-1 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit provides a robust and easy-to-use platform for identifying novel inhibitors of human caspase-1, the major downstream effector following inflammasome activation. The assay uses a caspase-1-specific fluorogenic substrate, Ac-YVAD-AFC. Caspase-1 cleaves this substrate generating free AFC, which can be easily quantified using a fluorescence plate reader at excitation and emission wavelengths of 400 and 505 nm, respectively. The potent and reversible caspase-1 inhibitor Ac-YVAD-CHO is included as a positive control.
