Glutathione Peroxidase Activity Kit

 Product Information

Cat #
MBNK-05
CAS No.
Enzyme Commission Number
Product Overview
The Glutathione Peroxidase activity kit provides a simple method for high throughput analysis of glutathione peroxidase activity in a variety of sample matrices. The principle of the assay is based on the oxidation of glutathione (GSH) to glutathione oxide (GSSG) catalyzed by glutathione peroxidase (GPx). The generated GSSG is recycled to its reduced state of GSH by glutathione reductase (GR) and NADPH. the assay base can be performed on a 96-well plate and can be assayed accurately in as little as 30 minutes.

 Description

Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is an enzyme family with peroxidase activity to protect the organism from oxidative damage. GPx plays an important role in reducing organic hydroperoxides such as lipid hydroperoxides to their corresponding alcohols, or reducing free hydrogen peroxide to water. It therefore guards against oxidative damage to the cell membranes and other oxidant-sensitive sites in the cell. It has been noticed that altered GPx levels correlate with lesions caused by many comment and complex diseases. GPx level is measured in biological samples as a potential indicator for the potential treatment of cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases.
