Summary: Collagenase Inhibitor Screening Kit provides a quick and sensitive way for screening, studying and characterizing potential inhibitors of Collagenase. The kit uses Self-Quenched BODIPY conjugate of Gelatin (Type B) as a fluorogenic substrate to monitor the activity of Collagenase. Gelatin consists of a heterogeneous mixture of proteins of high average molecular weight derived from collagen Upon proteolytic digestion of the highly quenched BODIPY-labeled gelatin by Collagenase, the de-quenched BODIPY yields bright green fluorescence that can be assayed using a fluorometer or a fluorescence microplate reader (Ex/Em: 490 nm / 520 nm, 515 nm cutoff). In the presence of a Collagenase inhibitor, the gelatin is not digested, the dequenching of BODIPY does not occur and the fluorescent signal is not produced.
