Usage Notes
Assay kit is intended for research use only. Not for use in test procedures. Please consult the Safety Data Sheet for information regarding hazards and safe handling practices.
Do not mix or substitute kit reagents or materials from other lots or vendors. Kits are QC tested as a set of components and performance cannot be guaranteed if utilized separately or substituted.
Avoid foaming or bubbles when mixing or reconstituting components.
Avoid cross-contamination, change pipette tips between additions of standards, samples and reagents. Also, use separate reservoirs for each reagent.
Ensure all reagents and equipment are at the appropriate temperature before assay.
96-well UV microplate is needed
Sample preparation and other processes need to be performed on ice, and the enzyme activity must be measured on the same day and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to prevent enzyme inactivation.
LDH must be placed on ice during the measurement process. The reaction temperature has an influence on the results, so please keep it at 25 degree C(general species) or 37 degree C(mammal).

Related Product Information for PK assay kit
Principle of the Assay: Pyruvate Kinase (PK, EC 2.7.1.40) is widely present in animals, plants, microorganisms and cultured cells, and catalyzes the last step reaction in the glycolysis process. It is one of the main rate-limiting enzymes in the glycolysis process and the key to ATP production. It is important to measure PK activity. CheKine™ Micro Pyruvate Kinase (PK) Assay Kit provides a simple method for detecting PK activity in a variety of biological samples such as Serum, Plasma, Animal Tissues, Cells and Bacteria. PK catalyzes phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP reaction into ATP and pyruvate, and lactate dehydrogenase further catalyzes the production of lactic acid and NAD+ by NADH and pyruvate. The rate of NADH decline at 340 nm can reflect PK activity.

Product Notes
The PK (Catalog #AAA332480) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pyruvate Kinase (PK), 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
