NOTE: Malachite Green is a highly sensitive phosphate detection solution. Make sure any reagent used in the assay is free of inorganic phosphates, as this will greatly increase the background absorbance of the assay. Enzyme reactions should be performed in a final volume of 25 µl (the same volume as that used for the standard curve). Before proceeding, confirm that your enzyme samples are free of contaminating inorganic phosphate. To determine phosphate contamination, add Malachite Green Reagent (100 µl) to 2-5 µl of sample. Any phosphate contamination will result in a color change to green. Measure absorbance at 620-660 nm and compare to standard curve to determine amount of contaminating inorganic phosphate. If required, contaminating inorganic phosphate can be removed using a desalting column or dialysis.

All Species Expected
The Malachite Green Phosphate Detection Kit is designed for the in vitro measurement of phosphatase activity. Protein phosphatase enzymatic activity results in the release into solution of free inorganic phosphate from protein-phosphatase substrates. This free inorganic phosphate then forms a green molybdophosphoric acid complex. Formation of this complex is monitored and quantified by measuring the absorbance at 630 nm. This absorbance is proportional to free-inorganic phosphate in solution and correlates with the activity of phosphatase (1,2).
