Fast and convenient
The fluorometric kit provides a simple two-step process for quantitative measurement of total nitrate/nitrite productions. The assay can be easily done in a 96-well plate.
Shelf Life: 12 months
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in neurotransmission, vascular regulation, immune response and apoptosis. Since NO is rapidly converted to nitrite (NO?) and nitrate (NO??), the total concentration of nitrite and nitrate is used as a quantitative measure of NO production. MyBioSource's Nitric Oxide Fluorometric Assay Kit provides an accurate and convenient measurement of total nitrate/nitrite concentration in a simple two-step process. In the first step nitrate is converted to nitrite by nitrate reductase. In the second step, nitrite reacts with the fluorescent probe DAN (2, 3 diaminonaphthalene). NaOH enhances the fluorescent yield. The fluorescent intensity is proportional to the total nitric oxide production. The kit has been tested with culture media, plasma, and tissue homogenates.
Summary: Detection method- Fluorescence (Ex/Em 380/461 nm)

Product Notes
The Nitric Oxide (Catalog #AAA841654) is an Assay Kit 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 "Nitric Oxide, 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.Precautions
