Lactate Assay Kit-WST

Lactate Assay Kit-WST can quantify lactate (the lower limit: 0.02 mmol/l), one of the glycolysis metabolites. Because the Lactate Assay Kit-WST corresponds to 96 well micro-plates, it allows for multiple samples to be measured at once. Lactate quantification has been widely used as a marker for monitoring changes in intracellular metabolic pathway in many different areas of cancer research. In recent years, there have been an increasing number of reports on using lactate as an indicator of stem cell differentiation or as an indicator in diabetic research.
The kit is used to detect lactate in cell culture medium by measuring the absorbance of WST formazan produced according to quantities of lactate. The kit includes a “Lactate Standard” which can be used to quantify the concentration of lactate found within samples by creating standard curve

Technical info


The kit is used to detect lactate in cell culture medium by measuring the absorbance of WST formazan produced according to quantities of lactate. The kit includes a “Lactate Standard” which can be used to quantify the concentration of lactate found within samples by creating standard curve.







Simple Assay Procedure







Stability


Dojindo’s stock solution is stable for 4 months under refrigerator. Your assay can be done anytime without the need freeze the product and wait for defrosting.







Standard curve


Standard curve can be prepared by using Lactate Standard included in the kit. The concentration of lactate can be measured. The concentration of lactate can be evaluated by diluting the samples if the concentration is over 1 mmol/l.
