Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers.

How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?
1 answer-
If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

Why would liquid samples need to be diluted to 20-80 ug/mL? I'm hoping to be able to use this kit to measure glucose levels in serum that should be between 5 - 30 mmol/L. Would this work?
1 answer-
Unfortunately, no, this kit is not suitable for concentrations of 5-30 mmol/L, which equates to 900-5400 mg/L. This concentration is far above the detection range and would offer poor results. The detection range of this kit is approximately 10-100 ug/ml and sample dilution is required for accurate, repeatable results. Measuring samples outside of this range is not recommended.

Is it possible to adapt the GAGO20 Glucose (GO) Assay Kit to a 96-well plate?
1 answer-
Researchers have documented an adaptation of the kit to a 96-well assay format as follows.
To prepare glucose standards, 16 µl of 1 mg/ml glucose should be diluted with 84 µl PBS to achieve a 100 µl final volume for a 0.16 mg/ml standard. Four 2-fold serial dilutions into PBS (50 µl 0.16 mg/ml + 50 µl PBS for 0.08 mg/ml standard, etc.) should be done to generate 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, and 0.16 mg/ml glucose standards. These assays are linear from 0.01 to 0.16 mg/ml glucose. Glucose stock solutions can be stored at −20°C or 4°C.
Then, 30 µl of glucose standards and a PBS blank should be added to the first row of a clear-bottom 96 well plate. In the next row, 30 µl of each sample should be added into an individual well after diluting them 1:4–1:8 with PBS.For Glucose Oxidase-based Glucose assay:
• Add 100 µl of GO reagent (Sigma; GAGO-20) to each well with a multichannel pipette.
• Seal the wells with parafilm to prevent evaporation and incubate the plate at 37°C for 30–60 min.
• Stop the reaction by adding 100 µl of 12 N H2SO4 (the samples should visibly change color from yellow/orange to pink).
• Centrifuge the plate in an appropriate swing-bucket rotor to clear condensate from the sides of the wells and to remove any air bubbles present in the samples.
• Use a plate reader to measure absorbance at 540 nm.
• Determine the free glucose concentration by comparing the free glucose measurements for each sample to the glucose standard curve.Helpful?

Can I scale down the reaction volumes 20-25 times lower than what is specified in the protocol? So instead of using 1ml of sample, 2 ml of assay reagent, and 2ml of sulfuric acid, use 50ul, 100ul and 100ul of each step and react?
1 answer-
This kit has been optimized for use at the volumes given in the protocol. The suitability of using smaller volumes in a tube format would have to be determined by the end user and is not recommended. However, other researchers have published an adaptation of the kit to a 96-well assay format which utilizes similar volumes. Please note that this process has not been validated. The 96-well plate protocol can be reviewed below.
Prepare glucose standards: Dilute 16 µl of 1 mg/ml glucose with 84 µl PBS (100 µl final volume) for 0.16 mg/ml standard. Do four 2-fold serial dilutions into PBS (50 µl 0.16 mg/ml + 50 µl PBS for 0.08 mg/ml standard, etc.) to generate 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, and 0.16 mg/ml glucose standards. These assays are linear from 0.01 to 0.16 mg/ml glucose. Glucose stock solutions can be stored at −20°C or 4°C.

How would you deproteinate and decolorize serum sample to be compatible with the GAGO20 assay kit?
1 answer-
There are a number of ways to deproteinize serum. Most classical methods use acids or solvents to precipitate proteins followed by centrifugation. One example is given below:
Use perchloric acid (10% v/v) in a volume equal to the sample, mix well, and centrifuge. Remove the supernatant and neutralize it with KOH (20% w/v). Allow to stand for 10 minutes in an ice bath and centrifuge. The sample (supernatant) can then be run in the assay.Another option is filtration through a 10 kDa MWCO spin filter. The spin filter that can be used for this purpose is SKU UFC5010.
https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/US/en/product/mm/ufc5010Note that high hemoglobin levels (caused by hemolysis upon collection) may also contribute to the colorization of serum and plasma, however upon dilution, it should not be a factor with GAGO20.

How would I decolorize my sample for use in the glucose assay using Product GAGO20, Glucose (GO) Assay Kit?
1 answer-
First, you will need to determine if the color affects the result by reading it as a blank in the assay. The classical method for decolorization of carbohydrate solutions is treatment with charcoal. A small amount of powdered charcoal such as Product C3345 is added to the sample, stirred a few moments, then clarified by filtration or centrifugation. If the color persists, another portion of charcoal is added and the process repeated until there is no more change in color with an addition of charcoal.
