Product Name ATP Viability Luminescence Assay System
Catalog No. CATR-HMM-0038
Description A bioluminescence-based ATP detection reagent that provides a rapid and ultra-sensitive method for quantifying viable cells. The assay utilizes recombinant firefly luciferase to generate light proportional to intracellular ATP concentration, which correlates directly with the number of metabolically active cells.
Intended Use High-sensitivity cell viability and proliferation measurement in low-cell-number applications such as stem cell culture, primary cell analysis, drug potency testing, and high-throughput screening.
Principle / Technology ATP released from lysed cells reacts with luciferin and oxygen in the presence of firefly luciferase and Mg2+ to produce oxyluciferin, AMP, CO2, and light (560 nm); luminescence intensity is proportional to ATP concentration under saturating substrate conditions.
Detection Method Bioluminescence measured in relative light units (RLU) using a luminometer or multi-mode plate reader with luminescence detection capability
Sample Type Mammalian cells, insect cells, primary cells, stem cells, bacteria; adherent or suspension cultures in 96-well, 384-well, or 1536-well microplates
Performance Range / Specifications Linear detection range: 10–100,000 cells per well for most mammalian cells; luminescence signal half-life >2 hours
Sensitivity / LOD Detection of fewer than 10 viable cells per well for most transformed cell lines
Specificity Luciferase-luciferin reaction is highly specific for ATP; ADP, AMP, and other nucleotide phosphates produce negligible signal; luminescence background from spent medium is typically very low
Reaction Conditions / Protocol Equilibrate cell plate and reagent to room temperature; add equal volume of reagent to culture medium (e.g., 100 μL reagent to 100 μL medium); mix for 2 minutes on orbital shaker to ensure cell lysis; equilibrate 10 minutes for signal stabilization; read luminescence
Components / Formulation Lyophilized luciferin substrate and recombinant luciferase with buffer salts and stabilizers; reconstitution buffer included; supplied as single-component reagent after reconstitution
Storage Conditions Lyophilized: -20°C protected from light; reconstituted reagent: 2–8°C for 1 week or -20°C for up to 3 months (single freeze-thaw recommended)
Shelf Life 12 months for lyophilized reagent
Package Specifications 10 mL (100 assays in 96-well format), 100 mL (1,000 assays), 10 × 100 mL bulk format
Product Form Lyophilized reagent requiring reconstitution
Quality Control Each lot standardized against known ATP concentrations (0.01 nM–1 μM range); linearity confirmed (R2 ≥0.99); luciferase activity verified to exceed 1 × 10^8 RLU/μL/min
Key Features Homogeneous add-mix-read format; signal half-life >2 hours enabling batch processing; linear response across four orders of magnitude of cell number; compatible with automated liquid handling systems
