D-Lactate, typically present in the bloodstream at nanomolar concentrations, is produced by an intestinal source or via the methylglyoxal pathway. In mammals, D-Lactate metabolism requires D-Lactate hydrogenase and is metabolized slowly, thus an increase in blood concentration levels can lead to acidemia and acidosis. The severity of this D-lactic acidosis can be associated with neurotoxic symptoms. Significant D-Lactate accumulations in the body can also be related to impaired metabolism and excretion.
Aplicación
D-Lactate Colorimetric Assay kit has been used to determine the stereospecificity of lactate produced.[1]
Idoneidad
Suitable for use with samples of serum, plasma, cells, culture and fermentation media.
Principio
In this assay, D-Lactate is specifically oxidized by D-Lactate hydrogenase and generates a proportional colorimetric product measured at 450 nm. The useful concentration range in samples is 0.1-10 mM D-Lactate.
Purpose: Microbiological investigations of vitreous fluid have often failed to detect the causative agent in infectious endophthalmitis resulting in a clinical dilemma. D-Lactate is a byproduct of bacterial metabolism, and its accumulation in sterile body fluids indicates bacterial infection. The

Childhood obesity is associated with insulin resistance (IR), increased levels of small dense low-density lipoprotein (sd-LDL) as well as with augmented hepatic de novo lipogenesis, which implies increased triose phosphate fluxes that may lead to increased methylglyoxal (MG) and its
