Product Introduction

MeOSuc-AAPV-AMC is a fluorogenic substrate for human leukocyte and porcine pancreatic elastase. The methoxy succinyl (MeO-Suc) peptide AAPV is hydrolyzed by these elastases but not by cathepsin G. The addition of 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (AMC) generates a peptide of low fluorescence (excitation: 355-380 nm; emission 440-460 nm) that demonstrates a linear increase in fluorescence intensity in the presence of elastase.
