Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Scintillation Proximity Assay
Description:  [3H]-Ketanserin binding experiments are carried out in SPA 96-well format. Membranes used in this assay are prepared from AV-12 cells stably expressing recombinant 5-HT2A receptor (human). The incubation is initiated by the addition of a mixture of WGA YSi SPA beads (1 mg/well, Perkin Elmer (MA, USA), RPNQ0011) and 2 μg membranes to assay buffer (67 mM Tris, 0.5 mM EDTA; pH 7.6) containing 3.1 nM [3H]-Ketanserin and varying concentrations of the test compound (10 point concentration response curves). Non-specific binding is determined in the presence of 20 μM 1-(1-Naphthyl) piperazine. Samples are incubated for 4 hr. at room temperature (22° C.) and then read in a Microbeta Trilux.
