Glutamate Assay
Glutamate Assay kit could measure glutamate level of samples from cells, serum, plasma, tissue and food extracts. This product is for research purposes only and not for use in animals, humans, or diagnostic procedures.
Glutamate is a key molecule in cellular metabolism and an important mammalian neurotransmitter that is believed to be involved in a number of neurological diseases such as lateral sclerosis, lathyrism, autism and Alzheimer's disease. Glutamate is also widely used as a flavor enhancer in the food industry. This colorimetric assay is based on glutamate dehydrogenase catalyzed oxidation of glutamate, in which the formed NADH reduces a terazolium salt MTT. The intensity of the product color, which exhibits an absorbance maximum at 570 nm, is proportional to the glutamate concentration in the sample.
