Related Product Information for Methylglyoxal assay kit
Methylglyoxal (MG, 2-oxopropanal, pyruvic aldehyde), a by-product of glycolysis, is a highly toxic, reactive dicarbonyl compound. It causes non-enzymatic glycation of proteins which yields irreversible advanced glycation end products (AGEs), leading to cross-linking or degradation of proteins. MG is associated with several pathologies including diabetes, aging and neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, recent studies have suggested that MG may induce carbonyl stress-type schizophrenia. PicoProbe Methylglyoxal Assay Kit (Fluorometric) can detect MG using an enzyme-coupled reaction which reduces the fluorogenic probe. The reduced fluorophore produces a stable signal (Ex/Em= 535/587nm), which is directly proportional to the amount of MG in samples. The assay is simple, reproducible and can specifically detect as low as 6 pmol of MG in a 100 ul reaction.

Product Notes
The Eukaryotes Methylglyoxal (Catalog #AAA849683) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA849683 Assay Kit recognizes Eukaryotes Methylglyoxal. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Methylglyoxal, 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
