PathSpecific™ Glucose Uptake Assay Kit-Colorimetric (CAT#: ZL-0725-WR23)
| Overview | |
|---|---|
| Description | Creative Biolabs' PathSpecific™ Glucose Uptake Assay Kit-Colorimetric offers a sensitive and non-radioactive test for assessing the uptake of glucose in tissue or cultured cells. |
| Applications | To quantify glucose uptake in tissue or cultured cells. |
| Molecular Mechanism of Action | In this assay, 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) is internalized by glucose transporters and phosphorylated to 2-deoxyglucose-6-phosphate (2-DG6P). This non-metabolizable product then accumulates within the cells, providing a direct measure of glucose uptake. The accumulated 2-DG6P is subsequently oxidized by an enzyme, producing NADPH, which is then quantified using a chromogenic sensor. The resulting signal can be detected by an absorbance microplate reader, by calculating the optical density ratio at 570 nm to 610 nm. |
