Description:
The Cholesterol/Cholesteryl Ester Quantitation Kit provides a simple method for sensitive quantification of free cholesterol, cholesteryl esters, or both by colorimetric or fluorometric methods. Majority of the cholesterol in blood is in the form of cholesteryl esters which can be hydrolyzed to cholesterol by cholesterol esterase. Cholesterol is then oxidized by cholesterol oxidase to yield H₂O₂which reacts with a sensitive cholesterol probe to produce color (λmax = 570 nm) and fluorescence (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm). The assay detects total cholesterol (cholesterol and cholesteryl esters) in the presence of cholesterol esterase or free cholesterol in the absence of cholesterol esterase in the reaction. Cholesteryl ester can be determined by subtracting the value of free cholesterol from the total (cholesterol plus cholesteryl esters).

• G1P Developer (Lyophilized)
• G1P Substrate Mix (Lyophilized)
• G1P Standard (Lyophilized)
Description:
Glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) is an important carbohydrate intermediate in glucose metabolism and storage. In response to hormonal or neural signals, glycogenolysis occurs in liver and muscle tissues where Glucose-1-phosphate is released as the rate-limiting step in glycogen breakdown. Glucose-1-phosphate is subsequently converted to Glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase and enters glycolysis. In glycogen synthesis, glucose is transferred to glycogen through the actions of Phosphoglucose isomerase (G6P -> G1P), UDPG-pyrophosphorylase (G1P -> UDP-glucose) and glycogen synthase (UDP-glucose + glycogen[n] -> UDP + glycogen[n+1]). Glucose-1-phosphate is found in virtually all organisms from bacteria to higher plants and animals. Measurement of intracellular G1P levels is crucial for analyzing the carbohydrate metabolic pathways and their kinetic properties. In Glucose-1-phosphate assay, G1P is converted to glucose-6-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase in the presence of Glucose 1,6-biphosphate; glucose-6-phosphate is subsequently oxidized by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase to form NADH which reduces a colorless probe to a colored product with strong absorbance at 450 nm. BioVision’s Glucose-1-phosphate assay kit is rapid, sensitive & easy to use & can detect 1µM to 10 mM G1P. This G1P assay kit can be used for a variety of sample types.

Description: Visfatin, an adipocytokine that is highly enriched in the visceral fat of both humans and mice and whose expression level in plasma increases during the development of obesity. Visfatin corresponds to pre-B cell colony-enhancing factor (PBEF), a 52-kD cytokine expressed in lymphocytes. PBEF is an inflammatory cytokine that plays a requisite role in the delayed neutrophil apoptosis of sepsis. Visfatin exerted insulin-mimetic effects in cultured cells and lowered plasma glucose levels in mice. It was found that visfatin binds to and activates the insulin receptor. Plasma level of visfatin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was elevated, suggesting that measurement of plasma visfatin provides a relevant tool for understanding metabolic diseases.
Hydroxyproline (4-hydroxyproline, 4-羥基脯胺酸) is a common nonproteinogenic amino acid. It is found only in collagen and elastin in mammals but exists in a number of other proteins in plants. Hydroxyproline is formed only as a post-translational modification in the peptide chain and proline hydroxylase does not hydroxylate free proline. Hydroxyproline in tissue hydrolysates is a direct measure of the amount of collagen or gelatin present. A variety of disease states are believed to affect collagen turnover and can cause elevated serum or urine hydroxyproline. Such conditions range from neoplastic, inflammatory, renal or bone disease to endocrine and autoimmune disorders. BioVision’s Hydroxyproline Assay Kit is designed to measure hydroxyproline in tissue or protein/peptide hydrolysates. It can be used to measure hydroxyproline from other biological samples such as serum or urine if they have undergone a prior purification process.

Pyruvate is a central molecule in metabolism through which sugars enter the citric acid cycle. Pyruvate can be converted to carbohydrates during gluconeogenesis or to fatty acids via acetyl CoA. High levels of pyruvate are associated with liver disease and genetic disorders. Pyruvate has also been used to stimulate metabolism leading to loss of body weight. BioVision provides a simple, direct and automation-ready procedure for measuring pyruvate concentration in various biological samples such as blood, cells, culture and fermentation media, etc. In the assay, pyruvate is oxidized by pyruvate oxidase via enzyme reactions to generate color (λ= 570 nm) and fluorescence (at Ex/Em = 535/587 nm). Since the color or fluorescence intensity is proportional to pyruvate content, the pyruvate concentration can be accurately measured. The kit detects 1-200 µM pyruvate.
