Lactic Acid (LA) Assay Kit

Lactic Acid (LA) Assay Kit

Product Introduction

Lactic acid plays a role in energy metabolism, pH regulation, and signal transmission in the human body. Lactic acid is effectively cleared by the body under normal circumstances, but in some cases, lactate levels may increase, leading to lactic acidosis. Lactic acidosis can be caused by a variety of reasons, including hypoxia, liver dysfunction, metabolic disorders, etc. In clinical practice, the degree of lactic acidosis can be assessed and treatment can be guided by measuring the lactate concentration in the blood.


Product Features

Easy to use, high sensitivity and wide linear range.

 

Principle          

With oxidized coenzyme I (NAD+) as hydrogen acceptor, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) catalyzes lactate dehydrogenation to produce pyruvate, converting NAD+ into reduced coenzyme I (NADH). Among them, N-methylphenazine methylsulfate (PMS) transfers hydrogen to reduce WST-8 to an orange coloring substance, and the absorbance of the coloring substance produces an absorption peak under the 470nm band, and the absorbance is linearly related to the lactic acid content.
