Related Product Information for Methylglyoxal assay kit
Methylglyoxal (MG, 2-oxopropanal, pyruvic aldehyde) is a highly reactive dicarbonyl compound formed during glycolysis and sugar fermentation. It is an important precursor of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Endogenous MG is present in many food items and beverages. For example, high levels of MG have been reported in Manuka Honey and some soft drinks. Additionally, cooking and some storage techniques can induce the synthesis of MG, such as coffee brewing, and bread toasting. It has been shown that MG has antimicrobial activity against some bacterial strains, including Streptococcus, H. pylori, E Coli and other bacteria resistant to standard antibiotic treatments. Methylglyoxal Assay Kit (Colorimetric) enables the detection of MG using a set of engineered enzymes and a chromophore. The reduced chromophore, final product of the assay, produces a stable signal, which can be easily quantified at 450 nm using a microplate reader and its signal is directly proportional to the amount of MG in samples. The assay is simple, specific, reproducible, and can detect as low as 0.5 nmol/well of MG in a 100 ul reaction.

Product Notes
The Eukaryotes Methylglyoxal (Catalog #AAA849712) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA849712 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
