Functioning at the core of various biological processes, pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) is a key subject of biochemical analysis. It catalyzes critical oxidation-reduction reactions by transferring hydride groups to specific electron acceptors. Moreover, thus, accurate determination using this assay supports advanced exploration in biochemistry and molecular biology.
Application
Tailored for accurate quantification of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) across cell biology, organelle bioenergetics, and intracellular signaling cascades.
Key Features & Advantages
Linear Dynamic Range; Streamlined Workflow; Consistent Batch-to-Batch Performance
Operating Instructions
1. Pre-Centrifugation of Vials: Prior to opening any reagent vials, perform a brief centrifugation to collect all powder or liquids at the bottom of the tubes.
2. Reagent Equilibration & Mixing: Allow all kit reagents and buffers to equilibrate to room temperature (25 °C) before initiating the assay.
3. Sample Storage: If samples are not assayed immediately, please store at -80 °C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
