General description

Methanol is a simple alcohol, comprised of a hydroxyl group and a methyl group. It is typically used in antifreeze, fuel, and other products. Methanol is often used as a solvent or building block for chemical synthesis. Many anaerobic bacteria produce methanol.
Methanol is found at very low levels in alcoholic beverages. Small amounts of methanol are present in normal, healthy human individuals. However, higher levels of methanol are toxic. Methanol poisoning typically occurs following ingestion of a methanol-containing product. The basis of the toxic effects of methanol is attributed to format, to which methanol is eventually converted. Elevated format levels can lead to confusion, blindness, and death. Due to its high toxicity, methanol is used as an additive in many industrial alcohol products, to prevent human consumption.

The Methanol Quantification Assay Kit provides simple and sensitive procedure for measuring methanol in various sample types. Methanol concentration is determined via a coupled enzymatic reaction. The fluorescence intensity, measured at λex=535nm/λem= 590nm, is proportional to the amount of methanol present in the sample. The linear ranges of this kit are 0.5–10nmol.Our Methanol quantification assay kit can be used to quantify methanol in biological samples such as serum and plasma, and in beverages (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages). The methanol quantification assay kit is highly specific to methanol, with less than 10% cross reactivity towards 100 nmol ethanol over 10 nmol methanol (i.e., over 100-fold specificity). The detection is fast: Only 15 min. Detection can be done at room temperature.

Our economical methanol quantification assay kit also saves your time and efforts:

  • Highly sensitive, simple and high-throughput assay for measuring methanol in a variety of samples
  • User friendly: No need to weigh or calculate needed amounts of reagents on your own
  • Supportive calculator (Click here to download a calculator excel file): Will calculate the reagents needed according to your experimental needs, and analyze your results based on your experimental data!
  • Quick instruction bench card - to assure your experimental success
  • More experiments in one kit - contains sufficient reagents for 200 fluorometric tests.
  • Detection time: only 15 minutes
  • Detection can be done at room temperature.
