Merck, MAK335-1KT, Succinate Assay Kit

General description
Succinate, or succinic acid, can be found in all plants and animal tissues. It is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle and plays an important role in intracellular energy generation. Succinate is widely used as a flavoring agent in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries due to its low toxicity.
Application
Suitable for succinate determination in food, beverage, agricultural products, and other biological samples.
The Succinate Assay Kit may be used for:
Diabetes Research
Food and Beverage Testing
Mitochondrial Disorder Research

Biochem/physiol Actions
The Succinate Assay Kit provides a simple, one step assay for measuring succinate. In this assay succinate is converted to pyruvate which reacts with specific reagents and dye to form a colored product. The color intensity at 570 nm or fluorescence at λex/em = 530/585 nm of the reaction product is directly proportional to succinate concentration in the sample. Linear detection range 10 μM to 400 μM for colorimetric assays and 2 to 40 μM for fluorimetric assays.
Features and Benefits
Efficient and Precise: Detect Succinate levels ranging from 10 to 400 μM (colorimetric) and 2 to 40 μM (fluorimetric) in a 30 minute room temperature reaction, providing both convenience and sensitivity.

Compatibility with High-Throughput Systems: Easily incorporate our kit into high-throughput handling systems, ensuring smooth and accurate processing, enhancing efficiency in your laboratory workflow.
