Short Description
Measures uricase activity via uric acid oxidation.
Development Stage
Research-Grade Protein & Enzyme Assay Development
Description
The ModifiSite™ Uricase Assay Kit employs a UV kinetic assay to validate recombinant uricase potency for the treatment of refractory gout. This assay measures the enzymatic degradation of uric acid, supporting the development of biologics for hyperuricemia. It ensures the specific activity and stability of therapeutic enzymes in pharmaceutical formulations.
