    Product Description

    Cayman’s Uric Acid Assay Kit provides fluorescence- or colorimetric-based methods for detecting uric acid in plasma, serum, and urine. In the assay, uricase catalyzes the conversion of uric acid to allantoin, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and carbon dioxide. H2O2, in the presence of horseradish peroxidase, reacts stoichiometrically with ADHP (10-acetyl-3,7-dihydroxyphenoxazine) to produce the highly fluorescent compound resorufin. Resorufin fluorescence can be analyzed with an excitation wavelength between 530-540 nm and an emission wavelength between 585-595 nm. Alternatively, the absorbance of resorufin can be measured at 570 nm.

    Needed but not supplied: Please download the kit booklet to verify if UltraPure Water (Milli-Q or equivalent) or any other components are needed for this assay.
