PicoProbe™ Free Glycerol Fluorometric Assay Kit
Glycerol is a central backbone for all lipids such as triglycerides and phospholipids, which is a major component in cell membrane. Because of the low toxicity of glycerol, it is widely used in cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical industries.
The PicoProbe™ Free Glycerol Fluorometric Assay Kit provides a sensitive, easy to use and simple way for detection of trace amount glycerol in various samples based on fluorometric method. In the assay, glycerol reacts with Enzyme Mix to yield an intermediate, which is subsequently oxidized with the production of fluorescence that can be detected at Ex/Em = 535/587 nm. The reducing substances contained in the samples may interfere with oxidase-based assays. The fluorescence intensity is directly proportional to the amount of glycerol. The kit can detect glycerol amount less than 40 pmol.
