Acetaldehyde Assay Kit

半岛bd体育手机客户端 说明

一般描述

Acetaldehyde (CH₃CHO) is one of the most widely occurring aldehydes in nature and is commonly used in industry. Acetaldehyde, a metabolic byproduct of ethanol in the liver, is toxic to the human body and is rapidly converted to the less harmful acetic acid by the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase. People with a deficiency of aldehyde dehydrogenase accumulate acetaldehyde when consuming alcohol and this accumulation results in facial and body flushing often referred to as “Asian flush syndrome.” Buildup of acetaldehyde has also been associated with the effects of hangovers from alcohol consumption. Although classified as a carcinogen, acetaldehyde is naturally found in many foods and beverages such as ripe fruit, coffee, and wine.

特点和优势

• Linear detection range (20 μL sample): 2 μM to 2mM acetaldehyde in 96-well plate assay.
• Convenient room temperature assay. The procedure involves adding a single working reagent, and reading the absorbance after 30 minutes.
• Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.

适用性

The kit is suitable for acetaldehyde determination in biological samples (e.g. plasma, serum, urine, tissue and culture media) and food/beverage samples (e.g. wine, coffee, and juice).

原理

The Acetaldehyde Assay Kit is based on the aldehyde dehydrogenase catalyzed oxidation of acetaldehyde with the reduction of NAD to NADH. The formed NADH subsequently reduces MTT, producing a colored formazan compound. The intensity of the end product color, measured at 565 nm, is directly proportional to the acetaldehyde concentration in the sample.
