More Details:

GLUCOSE DEHYDROGENASE (GDH) belongs to the family of oxioreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors. GDH participates in the pentose phosphate pathway. Gentaur Genprice' non-radioactive, colorimetric GDH assay is based on the reduction of the tetrazolium salt MTT in a NADH-coupled enzymatic reaction to a reduced form of MTT which exhibits an absorption maximum at 565 nm. The increase in absorbance at 565 nm is proportional to the enzyme activity.
