ABSTRACT:
Methods are provided for sensitive detection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in samples using the luciferin-luciferase reaction. Aspects include using a pH composition that maximizes a signal to noise ratio. The maximum signal to noise ratio can be particularly useful with recombinant luciferase including recombinant Coleoptera luciferase.
