FLEXYTE® Assays

Almac and Edinburgh Instruments join forces to present FLEXYTE® assays. FLEXYTE® assays harness the power and potential of fluorescence lifetime technology (FLT) to provide a robust, efficient and economical platform for screening protein kinases.

Benefits of FLT:

  1. Robust and reliable
  2. Homogenous antibody free assays
  3. Avoids use of  radioactivity
  4. Allows miniaturisation
  5. Minimises interference from problem compounds
  6. Enables multiplexing

Fluorescence Lifetime assays already developed for 11 different representative kinases and 3 proteases.

Generic substrates enable FLEXYTE® assays to be configured for a broad panel of Ser / Thr protein kinases in a rapid fashion (covering > 100 different kinases) and proteases in a rapid fashion.

FLEXYTE®approach applicable to any protein kinase with appropriate peptide substrates.

Custom assay development service available.
