Product Information: Sphingomyelinase Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit: Simple & convenient assay to measure sphingomyleinase activity in tissue samples such as brain, heart etc. & adhesion or suspension cells. Detection limit: < 10 uU/ml. 100 assay

Background: Sphingomyelinase (SMase) cleaves sphingomyelin to produce phosphocholine and ceramide. The activation of SMase leads to increased production of ceramide, which acts as a lipid second messenger that induces a variety of cell regulatory phenomena such as apoptosis, cell differentiation, cell proliferation and sterol homeostasis. MyBioSource's SMase Fluorometric Assay Kit provides a simple and sensitive method for measuring neutral-SMase enzymatic activity using fluorescence (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm). Neutral sphingomyelinase (N-SMase) is a Mg2+ sensitive enzyme that can be activated by a host of physiologically relevant and structurally diverse molecules. In this assay, SMase converts sphingomyelin substrate to phosphocholine and ceramide, which is then further utilized to produce fluorescence. This high-throughput adaptable assay kit can detect sphingomyelinase activity as low as 10 uU/ml in a variety of samples.

Summary: Detection method- Fluorescence (Ex/Em 535/587 nm)
Applications- Measurement of SMase activity in various tissues/cells extracts

Product Notes

The Sphingomyelinase (Catalog #AAA841694) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Measurement of SMase activity in various tissues/cells extracts. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Sphingomyelinase for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Sphingomyelinase, 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.
