KIT d ’ANALYSE de l - LACTATE

Non disponible en dehors du Royaume-Uni et de l'Irlande

Features and Benefits

Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.

General description

Lactate is generated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) under hypoxic or anaerobic conditions. Monitoring lactate levels is, therefore, a good indicator of the balance between tissue oxygen demand and utilization and is useful when studying cellular and animal physiology. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring lactate concentration are very desirable.

Principle

The Lactate Assay Kit is based on lactate dehydrogenase catalyzed oxidation of lactate, in which the formed NADH reduces a formazan (MTT) reagent. The intensity of the product color, measured at 565 nm, is proportionate to the lactate concentration in the sample.

Suitability

Suitable for lactate determination in serum, plasma, and cell media samples.
