Biochemical Assay Kits - LabAssay™

The LabAssay™ Series is a collection of biochemical assay kits for analyzing samples from humans, mice, and other animals. Since analyses are performed in microtiter plates, many samples can be concurrently evaluated, and only small sample amounts are needed.

LabAssay™ Ammonia

Ammonia is mainly produced in the intestine or the kidney. Ammonia produced in the body is converted to urea through a series of reactions known as the urea cycle in the liver and eliminated through urine.

Assay Principle (Modified Fujii-Okuda Method)

Ammonia is converted to Dioxydiphenylamine by the reaction of Phenol and Sodium Pentacyanonitrosyl ferrate(III). A reaction of the Dioxydiphenylamine with Sodium Hypochlorite produces Indophenol ,which pigments blue, under alkaline conditions. LabAssay™ Ammonia is a kit used for the quantitative determination of ammonia nitrogen in samples by measuring absorbance of the blue color.

LabAssay™ Glucose

Sugar is one of the most important sources of energy in biology. It is regulated by various factors within an organism. Glucose converges to a stable ratio of α-form and β-form in solutions.

Assay Principle (Mutarotase・GOD method)

α-D-Glucose is converted to β-D-Glucose by mutarotase. Hydrogen peroxide, which is produced by a reaction between β-D-Glucose and glucose oxidase(GOD), promotes oxidative condensation of phenol with 4-aminoantipyrine quantitatively. LabAssay™ Glucose is a kit used for the quantitative determination of glucose concentrations in samples by measuring absorbance of a red color which is generated by the oxidative condensation reaction.

LabAssay™ NEFA

NEFA (Non‐esterified fatty acid) in the blood is transported complexed with an albumin to peripheral tissues. They are important sources of fuel for the peripheral tissues. The concentration of NEFA in the blood is regulated by a release from the adipose tissues, a consumption in the periphral tissues or a take up from the liver.

Assay Principle (ACS・ACOD method)

NEFA (Non‐esterified fatty acid) forms Acyl-CoA in the presence of Acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS). Hydrogen peroxide, which is produced by a reaction between the Acyl-CoA and Acyl-CoA oxidase (ACOD), promotes oxidative condensation of 3-methyl-N-ethyl-N-(β-hydroxyethyl)-aniline (MEHA) with 4-aminoantipyrine. LabAssay™ NEFA can be used for the quantitative determination of NEFA in samples by measuring absorbance of a blue purple color which is generated by the oxidative condensation reaction.

LabAssay™ Phospholipid

Phospholipids are known as not only as major component of cell membranes but also perform vital functions within the body such as emulsification and absorption of fats or coagulation of blood.

Assay Principle (Choline Oxidase・DAOS method)

Phospholipids are hydrolyzed by Phospholipase D to release hydrogen peroxide. The formed hydrogen peroxide promotes oxidative condensation of N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl)-3,5-dimethoxyaniline sodium salt(DAOS) with 4-aminoantipyrine. LabAssay™ Phospholipid is a kit to determine Phospholipid concentration in samples by measuring absorbance of a blue color which is generated by the oxidative condensation reaction.

LabAssay™ Triglyceride

Triglycerides are neutral fats consisting of three fatty acids esterified to a glycerol backbone. There are triglycerides, cholesterol, phospholipids, free fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins as lipid-soluble substances in the blood.

Assay Principle

Triglycerides are converted to glycerol-3-phosphate by lipoprotein lipase and glycerolkinase. Hydrogen peroxide, which is produced by a reaction between the glycerol-3-phosphate and glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase(GPO), promotes oxidative condensation of N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl)-3,5-dimethoxyaniline sodium salt(DAOS) with 4-aminoantipyrine. LabAssay ™ Triglyceride can be used to detect triglycerides concentration in samples by measuring absorbance of a blue color which is generated by the oxidative condensation reaction.
