Product Introduction
This kit detects the activity of peroxidase (POD) in cells, tissues or other samples through colorimetric reaction. Peroxidase is a common enzyme that plays an important role in redox in organisms and is widely distributed in the liver, kidneys and red blood cells.
Principle
Under conditions where hydrogen peroxide is relatively abundant, peroxidase can catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Hydrogen peroxide can oxidize a chromogenic substrate under the catalysis of peroxidase, resulting in a red product with a maximum absorption wavelength of 532nm. By measuring the absorbance at A532 or a similar wavelength and comparing it with a standard curve made from peroxidase standards, the peroxidase activity in the sample can be calculated.
The figure below shows the A532 readings for peroxidase standards detected by this kit.
