Merck, MAK433-1KT, Adenosine Quantification Assay Kit

General description
Adenosine is a purine nucleoside base, which is the precursor of adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, and is utilized thoroughly throughout the entire body in general metabolism. Extracellular adenosine acts as a local modulator with a generally cytoprotective function in the body. Its effects on tissue protection and repair fall into four categories: increasing the ratio of oxygen supply to demand; protecting against ischaemic damage by cell conditioning; triggering anti-inflammatory responses; and the promotion of angiogenesis.
Application
The Adenosine Quantification Assay Kit may be used for:
Cancer Research
Cardiovascular Disease Research
Neurological Disease Research

The kit is suitable for the quantification of adenosine in plasma.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The Adenosine Quantification Assay Kit provides a simple and quick fluorometric method for the detection of adenosine. The kit is based on a multi-step enzymatic approach, resulting in the formation of fluorescent product that is measured at λEx = 550 nm/λEm = 585. The kit has a linear range of 0 to 20 μM.
