Invitrogen™ EnzChek™ Phospholipase A1 Assay Kit
Description
Includes
1 kit; Sufficient material is supplied for 200 reactions in 96-well microplates at 100 μL per well as described in the protocol below or 400 reaction in 384 low volume microplates at a volume of ≤25 μL per well.
This kit takes the stand-alone assay for phospholipase A1, PLA1 and combines the necessary reagents to run 2 to 10 complete 96-well microplate assays that monitor activity in purified enzyme preparations and cell lysates. The importance of phospholipases in cellular signaling, lipid metabolism, inflammatory responses and pathological disorders related to these processes has stimulated demand for fluorescence-based activity monitoring methods. In particular the phospholipases resident in plasma and endothelium can perturb circulating LDL and HDL particles, creating pro-artherogenic forms. Recent evidence is drawing a link between these lipases and the progression of several severe neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's. PLA-1 improves upon two existing reagents in two ways: first it is now PLA-1 specific and secondly it has improved the assay quality by decreasing initial background noise.
