Description
The CelluTest™ Indican Assay Kit provides a simple colorimetric method for assessing gut microbiome dysbiosis and protein putrefaction. This assay validates metabolic indicators of intestinal health, supporting research into the gut-brain axis and malabsorption disorders. By quantifying urinary indican, it aids in the evaluation of dietary interventions and probiotics in pharmaceutical studies.
