Merck, MAK450-1KT, Glucose Dehydrogenase Assay Kit

General description
Glucose Dehydrogenase (GDH) belongs to the family of oxioreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors. GDH participates in the pentose phosphate pathway.
Application
The Glucose Dehydrogenase Assay Kit may be used for:
Metabolism Research
Drug Discovery

The kit is suitable for the quantitative determination of D-glucose dehydrogenase enzyme activity and drug effects on its metabolism in biological samples (e.g. plasma, serum, tissue and culture media).
Biochem/physiol Actions
The Glucose Dehydrogenase Activity Assay Kit is a non-radioactive, colorimetric GDH assay. It is based on the reduction of the tetrazolium salt MTT in a NADH-coupled enzymatic reaction to a reduced form of MTT which exhibits an absorption maximum at A565 nm. The increase in absorbance at A565 nm is proportional to the enzyme activity.
Features and Benefits
Efficient and Precise: Requires only 20 μL of sample and a short 15-minute reaction time while detecting glucose dehydrogenase levels across a broad range from 0.5 to 200 U/L, 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.
