PathSpecific™ Glucose Uptake Assay Kit-Fluorimetric (CAT#: ZL-0725-WR22)

Overview
DescriptionCreative Biolabs' PathSpecific™ Glucose Uptake Assay Kit-Fluorimetric offers a sensitive and non-radioactive test for assessing the uptake of glucose in cultured cells.
FeaturesNon-radioactive, sensitive
ApplicationsTo quantify glucose uptake in cells.
Molecular Mechanism of ActionIn this assay, 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) is internalized via glucose transporters and converted to 2-DG-6-phosphate (2-DG6P). The intracellular accumulation of the non-metabolizable 2-DG6P directly correlates with cellular glucose uptake. Subsequently, 2-DG6P is enzymatically oxidized, producing NADPH, which is then quantitatively detected using a fluorogenic NADPH sensor and measured with a fluorescence microplate reader.
