Datasheet

Product Introduction

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), also known as aspartate aminotransferase (GOT), is an enzyme widely found in animals, plants, microorganisms and cultured cells. It catalyzes the transamination reaction between aspartate and α-ketoglutarate, which is crucial in amino acid metabolism. Clinically, AST/GOT is often used as an auxiliary diagnostic indicator for myocardial infarction and myocarditis. At the same time, its concentration in serum will also increase when the liver is damaged.

 

Detection principle    

AST/GOT can transfer the amino and keto groups of ketoglutaric acid and aspartic acid to generate glutamic acid and oxaloacetic acid. Oxaloacetic acid can decarboxylate to pyruvic acid during the reaction. Pyruvic acid reacts with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine to generate 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone, which is reddish brown in alkaline solution. After colorimetry, the enzyme activity unit can be obtained by checking the standard curve.
