Application

  • Semiconducting polymer dots based L-lactate sensor: This study outlines the development of a semiconducting polymer dots-based L-lactate sensor utilizing an enzymatic cascade reaction system including pyruvic acid, illustrating its application in biochemical assays (He et al., 2024).
  • Antioxidant activity and metabolomic analysis: Research on Streptococcus alactolyticus included pyruvic acid in its metabolomic profiling to assess antioxidant activities, showcasing its importance in microbial metabolism studies (Gu et al., 2024).
  • Sodium alginate hydrogelation mediated paper-based POCT sensor: This paper introduces a sodium alginate hydrogelation-mediated sensor for dual-signal determination of L-lactate, incorporating pyruvic acid as a key reactant, suitable for point-of-care testing applications (Wang et al., 2024).
