Coelenterazine-utilizing luciferase detection reagent
QUANTI-Luc™ is a ready-to-use bioluminescent assay reagent to measure the activity of Lucia luciferase and other coelenterazine-utilizing luciferases, specifically the secreted Gaussia and intracellular Renilla. In order to meet your practical needs, InvivoGen has developed different QUANTI-Luc™ formulations:
– QUANTI-Luc™: powder formulation for Flash detection
– QUANTI-Luc™ Gold: powder formulation for Flash or Glow detection
– QUANTI-Luc™ 4 Lucia/Gaussia: liquid formulation for Flash or Glow detection of Lucia and Gaussia luciferases — NEW !
QUANTI-Luc™, QUANTI-Luc™ Gold, and QUANTI-Luc™ 4 Lucia/Gaussia contain the coelenterazine substrate and stabilizing agents for the luciferase reaction. The light signal produced correlates to the amount of luciferase protein expressed. It is quantified using a luminometer and expressed as relative light units (RLUs). The luminescence can be detected as a "flash" or a "glow" signal. The type of detection depends on the processing workflow:
► Flash luminescence emits light with high intensity for a few seconds. It is ideal for end-point detection in small sample numbers, or when using microplate readers with reagent injectors.
► Glow luminescence emits light with stable intensity for over 10 minutes. It is ideal for high-throughput screening (HTS) (i.e. the typical duration to read a 1536-well plate is ~7 minutes) or when using a luminometer without injectors.
QUANTI-Luc™
- All-in-one powder: QUANTI-Luc™ (coelenterazine substrate + working buffer).
- One-step reagent: just add water to prepare the working solution.
- Flash detection
QUANTI-Luc™ Gold
- Two-component kit: QUANTI-Luc™ Plus (powder) and QLC stabilizer (liquid)
- Flash detection: without stabilizer. This option is ideal for monitoring the cellular response to weak agonists.
- Glow detection: with stabilizer.

QUANTI-Luc™ 4 Lucia/Gaussia — NEW !
|
- Two-component kit: QUANTI-Luc™ 4 Reagent (liquid) and QUANTI-Luc™ 4 Stabilizer (liquid),
-
Flash detection: without stabilizer. This option is ideal for monitoring the cellular response to weak agonists.
Equally effective than QUANTI-Luc™ Gold, and QUANTI-Luc™ (see figures). -
Glow detection: with stabilizer.
Equally effective than QUANTI-Luc™ Gold (see figures). - Secreted luciferase detection: assess the activity of Lucia and Gaussia secreted luciferases.
- Convenient liquid formulation: allows extemporaneous dilution; no need for storing a working solution.
➔ QUANTI-Luc™ 4 Lucia/Gaussia has the same detection profile as competitors' reagents
(see Figures and data not shown).
Each lot is thoroughly tested using InvivoGen's Lucia reporter cell lines.
