General description

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is one of the most important antioxidative enzymes. It catalyzes the dismutation of the superoxide anion into hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen.

Features and Benefits

The SOD Activity Kit provides:
  • A simple one-step procedure.
  • Rapid with results in∼ 30 minutes.

Suitability

The kit is suitable for the determination of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in blood, tissue and cell lysates.

Principle

The sensitive SOD assay kit utilizes Water Soluble Tetrazolium Salts-1 that produces a water-soluble formazan dye upon reduction with superoxide anion. The rate of the reduction with a superoxide anion is linearly related to the xanthine oxidase (XO) activity, and is inhibited by SOD. Therefore, the inhibition activity of SOD can be determined by a colorimetric method.
