Caspase 9 Substrate 1, chromogenic

pNA (4-nitroaniline)-derived caspase substrates are widely used for the colorimetric detection of various caspase activities. Cleavage of pNA peptides by caspases generates pNA that is monitored colorimetrically at ~405 nm. pNA has maximum absorption around 408 nm.

Designed for biological research and industrial applications, not intended for individual clinical or medical purposes.
