Superoxide Dismutase Cu,Zn, Bovine Active Protein | Sod active protein
Superoxide Dismutase Cu,Zn, Bovine (SOD)
Extinction Coefficient (A259/A680): ~30. The protein does not show an absorption maximum at 280nm.
Stability: SOD is an unusually stable enzyme and retains its activity for up to a year at 5 degree C. The apoenzyme is very unstable.
SOD protects hyaluronate against depolymerization by free-radicals and indicated that exogenous SOD might have an anti-inflammatory effect. The O2-ion, which has been considered important in aging, lipid peroxidation and the peroxidative hemolysis of red blood cells, is formed by the univalent reduction of O2 during various enzymatic reactions or by ionizing radiation. There is also superoxide radical formation during leukocyte phagocytosis. SOD deficiency might lead to Heinz body hemolytic anemia.

Product Notes
The Sod sod (Catalog #AAA635155) is an Active Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Superoxide Dismutase Cu,Zn, Bovine, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
