Biochemicals

Storage: -70°CShipping: Dry Ice

Luciferase catalyzes the oxidation of reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMNH2) and a long chain aldehyde by molecular oxygen to yield FMN, the corresponding acid, H2O and light.

Specific Activity:
2x10e10 Light Units/mg protein

Unit Definition: The light unit value is the light output generated at room temperature over a 10-second period. Light output is measured using a Turner Luminometer Model# TD-20e.
