Beschreibung

General description

Alcoholic drinks are among the daily consumed beverages. Studies have shown that heavy alcohol consumption may lead to various forms of liver diseases and to increased mortality rates.

Application

The kit is suitable for the quantitative determination of ethanol in serum, plasma, urine, and saliva samples, as well as studying the effects of drugs on alcohol metabolism.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The Ethanol Assay Kit is based on the alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed oxidation of ethanol, in which the formed NADH is coupled to the formazan (MTT) chromogen. The intensity of the product color, measured at 565 nm, is proportionate to the ethanol concentration in the sample.

Features and Benefits

• The linear detection range of the kit is 0.0008% (v/v) (140 µM or 8 ppm) to 0.1% (v/v).
• Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.
