Application

This kit is for the quantitative, enzymatic determination of glucose in food and other material. Glucose is phosphorylated by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the reaction catalyzed by hexokinase. Glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is then oxidized to 6-phospho-gluconate in the presence of oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) in a reaction catalyzed by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH). During this oxidation, an equimolar amount of NAD is reduced to NADH. The consequent increase in absorbance at 340 nm is directly proportional to glucose concentration.

Questions

11–13 of 13 Questions  
  1. If my sample for the Glucose (HK) Assay Kit, Product GAHK20, has a lot of protein, how do I deproteinize it?

    1 answer
    1. You can deproteinize by using barium hydroxide, B4059, and zinc sulfate, Z2876, by adding 0.2 ml of sample to 1.8 ml of water, swirl and mix, then 1.0 ml of barium hydroxide, swirl and mix, then 1.0 ml of zinc sulfate, swirl and mix thoroughly by shaking, and then filter or centrifuge to obtain clear filtrate.
