    Guide (The following is our recommended protocol. This protocol is for reference only and should be modified according to your specific needs).
    Bromobimane (mBBr) labeled reactive thiols in cells[1]
    (1) Prepare a 100 mM mBBr solution with acetonitrile.
    (2) Add 1 mL of 10% cell suspension to 15-25 μL of 100 mM mBBr solution.
    (3) After incubation at 37°C for 30-45 min, fluorescence detection was performed.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
