Application
α-Glucosidase Activity Assay Kit has been used to measure the activity of a-glucosidase.
Features and Benefits
Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.
General description
α-Glucosidase hydrolyzes carbohydrates by acting on terminal, non-reducing a(1→4)-linked D-glucose residues with the release of D-glucose. Defects in α-glucosidase have been implicated in Pompe disease and diabetes.
Principle
In this assay,A-glucosidase activity is determined by a reaction in which A-glucosidase hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl-A-D-glucopyranoside resulting in the formation of a colorimetric (405 nm) product, proportional to the A-glucosidase activity present
Suitability
Suitable for the detection of α-glucosidase activity in biological samples.
