QuantiChrom™ Carbonyl Assay Kit | DCAR-100

Application: Quantification of carbonyl groups or protein carbonyls in biological samples.

Key Features:

• Fast and sensitive. Use of 100 µL sample. Linear detection range from 12 to 250 µM carbonyl in 96-well plate assay.
• Convenient. The procedure involves adding a single working reagent, and reading the absorbance after 30 min.
• High-throughput. Homogeneous "mix-incubate-measure" type assay. Can be readily automated on HTS liquid handling systems for processing thousands of samples per day.

Method: OD375nm

Samples: Chemicals with carbonyl groups (e.g. ketones, aldehydes) or protein carbonyls in biological samples (e.g. oxidized BSA, etc.)

Species: All

Size: 100 tests

Detection Limit: 12 µM

Shelf Life: 12 months

More Details:

CARBONYL groups, such as ketones and aldehydes, are a commonindicator of protein oxidation. Protein oxidation is caused as a result of exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is a common marker in various diseases as well as aging. Gentaur Genprice' Carbonyl Assay Kit is based on an improved method, where 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) reacts with carbonyl groups to produce a colored compound at 375 nm. The intensity of this colored compound is directly proportional to the carbonyl groups in the sample.
