Testing Data
Related Product Information for Choline Oxidase assay kit
Choline Oxidase (E.C. 1.1.3.17) belongs to the oxidoreductase family and is present in plants, bacteria, fungi and mammals. It is a catabolic enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction of choline and oxygen into betaine glycine and hydrogen peroxide with betaine aldehyde as an intermediate. The enzyme participates in glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism and is commonly used as a tool for the enzymatic determination of acetylcholinesterase, phospholipase D, phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, sphingomyelinase etc. Betaine glycine is a well known osmoprotectant and can help plants and bacteria to survive dry, cold and salt stresses. As a result, choline oxidase has been engineered genetically to produce transgenic plants such as tomato, rice and tobacco with increased stress tolerance and productivity. Additionally, accumulation of betaine glycine has been observed in bacteria such as Staphylocccus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Listeria monocytogenes thereby suggesting that drugs capable of inhibiting choline oxidase activity will have potential anti-bacterial activity. Choline Oxidase Activity Assay Kit is the first, commercially available kit to determine the activity of choline oxidase in samples. In this assay, choline oxidase oxidizes choline to generate hydrogen peroxide, which then reacts with the probe to generate a strong fluorescent signal measured at Ex/Em = 535/587nM. The fluorescent signal is directly proportional to the choline oxidase activity in the samples. The assay is simple, fast, reproducible and is high throughput adaptable. The kit can detect as low as 0.2 mU of choline oxidase activity under assay conditions.

Product Notes

The Bacteria Choline Oxidase (Catalog #AAA8400633) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA8400633 Assay Kit recognizes Bacteria Choline Oxidase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Choline Oxidase, Assay Kit" 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.
