LabAssay (TM) ALP

※For research purposes only with animal serum/plasma, Not for Diagnostic Use.

Introduction

Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is distributed in a variety of tissues such as liver, bone, and small intestine in animals. The change of the enzyme activity in tissues is an important hallmark for physiological phenomena as osteogenesis and so on. This kit is for Alkaline Phosphatase assay in a simultaneous multi-sample assay format with a microplate using p-Nitrophenylphosphate as a substrate.

Assay principle

p-Nitrophenylphosphate is hydrolyzed into p-Nitrophenol and Phosphoric Acid in the carbonate buffer (pH 9.8) in the presence of Alkaline Phosphatase in sample. Released p-Nitrophenol showing yellow color is optically measured at 405 nm wavelength as the enzyme activity.
