Cell Biolabs Inc OxiSelect™ Catalase Activity Assay Kit (Colorimetric), 100 assays
Supplier: Cell Biolabs Inc STA341
Hydrogen peroxide is a reactive oxygen species that is a toxic product of normal aerobic metabolism and pathogenic ROS production. Hydrogen peroxide is poisonous to eukaryotic cells and in high doses can initiate oxidation of DNA, lipids, and proteins, which can lead to mutagenesis and cell death. Catalase is an antioxidant enzyme omnipresent in mammalian and non-mammalian cells that destroys hydrogen peroxide by dismutation. The OxiSelect™ Catalase Activity Assay is a fast and reliable kit for the direct measurement of catalase activity from cell lysate, plasma, serum, whole blood, and tissue homogenates. Direct spectrophotometric detection of catalase activity with ultraviolet light can cause interference from proteins and other biological components. The assay utilizes visible light (520 nm), which reduces sample interference. Each kit provides sufficient reagents to perform up to 96 assays in a microtiter plate including blanks, catalase standards and unknown samples.
