SOD ASSAY KIT* Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

SOD Assay Kit has been used for the determination of superoxide dismutase activity in mammalian cells.

General Description

The kit contains all reagents and solutions required for determining superoxide dismutase activity in an indirect assay method based on xanthine oxidase and a novel color reagent. The chemical and biochemical properties of the color reagent used in this kit guarantee a very convenient application and linearity of test results over a broad range.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Superoxide dismutases are enzymes responsible for the elimination of superoxide radical (O2-), thereby protecting cells from free radicals-associated damages. They catalyze the dismutation of two superoxide radicals to hydrogen peroxide and oxygen.
