Click here to browse a well organized list of products for Bone, Collagen, and Extracellular Matrix research.The TRAP Staining Kit (Cat.No.PMC-AK04F-COS) is used for the staining of Tartrate-Resistant Acid Phosphatase in osteoclasts. Bone mass is controlled by the balance between the activity of osteoblasts bone formation and the activity of osteoclasts. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP: ALP staining kit, Cat.No.PMC-AK20-COS) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphate are used as markers for osteoblasts and osteoclasts, respectively.Kit Components Tartrate-containing Buffer 50ml Chromogenic Substrate 10 Vials Note: Store at 4°CProtocol (96-well plate format):
    Remove culture medium. Wash each well once with 100 ul of PBS. Add 50 ul of the 10% Formalin Neutral Buffer Solution to each well and fix for 5 minutes at room temperature. Wash each well with 250 ul of deionized water. (x 3 times) Dissolve 1 vial of Chromogenic Substrate with 5 ml of Tartrate-containing Buffer. Add 50 ul of Chromogenic Substrates to each well. Incubate at 37°C for 20-60 minutes. Adjust incubation time until stained TRAP is clearly showing the result in figure 1. Wash with deionized water to stop the reaction.
Note: Excess incubation will be cause of over staining.References1) Sunao Takesita, Keisuke Kaji, Akira Kudo.
