    Product Description

    Z-DEVD-AFC is a fluorogenic substrate for caspase-3.1 Upon cleavage by caspase-3, 7-amino-7-trifluoromethylcoumarin (AFC) is released and its fluorescence can be used to quantify caspase-3 activity. AFC displays excitation/emission maxima of 400/505 nm, respectively.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
