Cell Biolabs Inc OxiSelect™ Oxidative DNA Damage Quantitation Kit (AP Sites), 50 assays
Supplier: Cell Biolabs Inc STA324
Among numerous types of oxidative DNA damage, apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP or abasic) site is one of the prevalent lesions of oxidative DNA damage. Abasic sites arise in DNA at a significant rate by spontaneous base loss as in depurination, by DNA oxidation, or by the action of DNA glycosylases. The OxiSelect™ Oxidative DNA Damage Quantitation Kit (AP sites) uses an Aldehyde Reactive Probe (ARP) to react specifically with an aldehyde group on the open ring form of AP sites. This allows for the AP sites to be tagged with biotin which is later detected with Streptavidin-Enzyme conjugate. The quantity of AP sites in unknown DNA sample is determined by comparing its absorbance with a standard curve generated from the provided DNA standard containing predetermined AP sites. The kit has a detection sensitivity range of 4 to 40 AP sites per 1 x 105 bp. Each kit provides sufficient reagents to perform up to 50 assays for unknown samples, excluding the standard curve.
