Datasheet

Product Introduction

Alanine aminotransferase, also known as alanine aminotransferase, is mainly distributed in animal livers, but also exists in plants, microorganisms and cultured cells, and is essential for amino acid metabolism. In the diagnosis of liver diseases, liver cell damage can cause alanine aminotransferase to be released from the cells into the blood, thereby causing an increase in serum alanine aminotransferase activity. Therefore, alanine aminotransferase is a sensitive and commonly used indicator for assessing liver function damage.

 

Detection Principle    

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) acts on substrates composed of alanine and α-ketoglutarate at 37°C and pH 7.4 to generate pyruvate and glutamate. After 30 min of reaction (fixed time), 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) hydrochloric acid solution is added to terminate the reaction. At the same time, DNPH adds to the carbonyl group in ketoacid to generate pyruvate phenylhydrazone. Phenylhydrazone is reddish brown under alkaline conditions. The absorbance is measured at 510 nm and the enzyme activity is calculated.
