Description générale

Acetaldehyde is one of the most widely occurring aldehydes in nature and commonly used in industry. The metabolic byproduct of ethanol in the liver, acetaldehyde is toxic to the human body and rapidly converted to the less harmful acetic acid by the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase. People with a deficiency of aldehyde dehydrogenase accumulate acetaldehyde when consuming alcohol and this accumulation results in facial and body flushing known as alcohol flush reaction. Build up of acetaldehyde has also been associated with the effects of hangovers from alcohol consumption. Although classified as a carcinogen, acetaldehyde is naturally found in many foods and beverages such as ripe fruit, coffee, and wine.

Application

The Acetaldehyde Assay Kit may be used for:
  • Food and Beverage Testing
  • Gastrointestinal Disease Research

Caractéristiques et avantages

Enhanced Detection Range: Detect Acetaldehyde levels accurately across a wide range, from 0.5 µM to 60 µM, using only 50 μL of sample in a 96-well plate setup, ensuring comprehensive analysis with minimal sample requirement.

Simplified Process: Experience a streamlined process with the addition of only a single working reagent and a 30 minute room temperature reaction, reducing complexity and saving valuable time and effort.

Compatibility with High-Throughput Systems: Easily incorporate our kit into high-throughput handling systems, ensuring smooth and accurate processing, enhancing efficiency in your laboratory workflow.

Adéquation

Suitable for biological samples (e.g. plasma, serum, urine, tissue and culture media) and food/beverage samples (e.g. wine, coffee, and juice)

Principe

The fluorimetric acetaldehyde assay is based on aldehyde dehydrogenase catalyzed oxidation of acetaldehyde, in which the generated NADH reduces a probe making it fluorescent. The fluorescence intensity of the product measured at λex/em = 530/585 nm is directly proportional to acetaldehyde concentration in the sample.

Chronic ethanol consumption is a strong risk factor for the development of certain types of cancer including those of the upper aerodigestive tract, the liver, the large intestine and the female breast. Multiple mechanisms are involved in alcohol-mediated carcinogenesis. Among

Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) gene polymorphisms associating with enhanced acetaldehyde exposure and markedly increased cancer risk in alcohol drinkers provide undisputable evidence for acetaldehyde being a local carcinogen not only in esophageal but also in gastric cancer.
Dirk W Lachenmeier et al.
Addiction (Abingdon, England), 104(4), 533-550 (2009-04-02)
In addition to being produced in ethanol metabolism, acetaldehyde occurs naturally in alcoholic beverages. Limited epidemiological evidence points to acetaldehyde as an independent risk factor for cancer during alcohol consumption, in addition to the effects of ethanol. This study aims

Questions

  1. Hi, I want to ask a question regarding the fluorometric acetaldehyde assay kit (MAK321). Is it suitable for determining acetaldehyde levels in cell culture pellets, and what is the detection range if cell culture supernatant is used?

    1 answer
    1. We have not tested the product in the above mentioned application. The product has been tested to be suitable for a variety of biological samples (e.g., plasma, serum, urine, tissue, and culture media.) or food/beverage samples (e.g., wine, coffee, and juice). The cell pellet may not be suitable. To discuss this further, we kindly ask you to navigate to the link https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/techservice, click on "Report Product Issues" under the Products Section with all the required information so that a member of our team can reach out to you to assist further. Thank you.
