NADP/NADPH Assay Kit

• Cat.No.: Kit-2434
• Product Overview: Pyridine nucleotides play an important role in metabolism and, thus, there is continual interest in monitoring their concentration levels. Quantitative determination of NADP+/NADPH has applications in research pertaining to energy transformation and redox state of cells or tissue. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring NADP+/NADPH concentration are very desirable. NADP+/NADPH assay kit is based on a glucose dehydrogenase cycling reaction, in which the formed NADPH reduces a formazan (MTT) reagent. The intensity of the reduced product color, measured at 565 nm, is proportionate to the NADP+/NADPH concentration in the sample. This assay is highly specific for NADP+/NADPH and is not interfered by NAD+/NADH. Our assay is a convenient method to measure NADP, NADPH and their ratio.
