NADP (nicotinamide dinucleotide) is a major electron donor for anabolic reactions such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis. The reduced form, NADPH is a cofactor for many redox enzymes. It is of increasing interest to be able to measure low level of intracellular NADPH. The New NADPH Quantitation Assay kit ab287848 (Previously known as PicoProbe NADPH Quantitation Fluorometric Assay Kit) provides a highly sensitive method to detect intracellular NADPH. NADH is not detected as the NADPH Recycling Enzyme Mix specifically recognizes NADPH in the enzyme recycling reaction. The assay is rapid, simple and does not require purifying NADPH from samples. The kit can measure less than 40 nM NADPH in a variety of samples.
This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K349 PicoProbe™ NADPH Quantitation Fluorometric Assay Kit. K349-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab287848.
