Analysis of Tyrosine in pathological conditions
Urine or other body fluids
The assay can detect as low as 50 uM of Tyr in a variety of biological samples.
Shelf Life: 12 months
Background: Tyrosine (Tyr) is one of the four standard amino acids containing an aromatic group as a side chain. Its hydrophobicity is one of the main characteristics of this uncharged polar amino acid. In addition to being an essential amino acid Tyr is important in number of biological processes such as the synthesis of neurotransmitters, thyroid hormones, melanine, fumarate and acetoacetate. The pathology of abnormal concentrations of Tyr is well known in diseases including phenylketonuria, hypothyroidism, tyrosinemia, albinism, and alkaptonuria. MyBioSource's Tyrosine Assay kit is a simple, yet sensitive assay that is able to detect normal and abnormal concentrations of Tyr in biological fluids. The assay is based on the enzymatic oxidation of Tyr producing a stable signal (OD 492 nm), which is directly proportional to the amount of Tyr. Sample preparation is minimal and does not require strenuous or complicated procedures. The assay can detect as low as 50 uM of Tyr in a variety of biological samples.

Product Notes
The Tyrosine (Catalog #AAA841668) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Measurement of Tyrosine in various biological samples Analysis of Tyrosine in pathological conditions. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Tyrosine 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 "Tyrosine, 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
