Alpha Ketoglutarate (alpha KG) Assay Kit provides a simple, sensitive and rapid means for quantifying alpha KG.
In the alpha KG assay protocol, alpha-ketoglutarate is transaminated with the generation of pyruvate, which is used to convert a nearly colorless probe to a colored (λmax = 570 nm) and fluorescent (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm) product.
Alpha Ketoglutarate assay protocol summary:
- add reaction mix to standard and sample wells
- incubate for 30 min
- analyze with a microplate reader
This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K677 Alpha-Ketoglutarate Colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit. K677-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab83431.
