General description

The kit contains all reagents and solutions required for determining superoxide dismutase activity in an indirect assay method based on xanthine oxidase and a novel color reagent. The chemical and biochemical properties of the color reagent used in this kit guarantee a very convenient application and linearity of test results over a broad range.

Application

SOD Assay Kit has been used for the determination of superoxide dismutase activity in mammalian cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Superoxide dismutases are enzymes responsible for the elimination of superoxide radical (O2-), thereby protecting cells from free radicals-associated damages. They catalyze the dismutation of two superoxide radicals to hydrogen peroxide and oxygen.
