Sigma Aldrich Fine Chemicals Biosciences Urea Assay Kit sufficient
Urea is the major end product of nitrogen metabolism in most animals and is produced in a series of reactions in the liver called the urea cycle. In the urea cycle ammonia is converted to urea which is carried by blood to the kidneys for elimination from the body. High levels of urea in the blood may indicate renal failure. Urea levels may also be elevated in response to treatment with certain drugs such as corticosteroids or in response to decreased kidney filtration due to dehydration or congestive heart failure. Decreased blood urea levels can occur in response to liver disease or malnutrition.

Cayman Chemical Glutathione Peroxidase Assay Kit, 480 wells
GPX catalyzes the reduction of hydroperoxides, including H2O2, using reduced glutathione and thereby functions to protect the cell from oxidative damage. Cayman’s Glutathione Peroxidase Assay measures GPX activity indirectly by a coupled reaction with GR. Oxidized GSSG, produced upon reduction of an organic hydroperoxide by GPX, is recycled to its reduced state by GR and NADPH. The oxidation of NADPH to NADP+ is accompanied by a decrease in absorbance at 340 nm. The rate of decrease in the absorbance at 340 nm is directly proportional to the GPX activity in the sample. Cayman’s GPX Assay can be used to measure all of the glutathione-dependent peroxidases in plasma, erythrocyte lysates, tissue homogenates, and cell lysates.
