Galactose (C6H12O6 FW: 180.16) is one the major naturally occurring sugars, involved in many biological processes. The Galactose Assay Kit provides a simple, convenient means for direct measurement of galactose levels in various biological samples (serum, plasma, other body fluids, food, growth media, etc.). In the assay kit, Galactose is specifically oxidized generating a product that produces color (O.D 570nm) and fluorescence (Ex/Em 535/587nm). Liquid samples can be tested directly without purification. The assay is fast, convenient and sensitive. It can also be used as a high throughput assay. Kit Components: Galactose *Assay Buffer 1x25ml Galactose Probe (DMSO solution) 1x0.2ml Galactose **Enzyme Mix (Lyophilized) 1x1vial HRP (Lyophilized) 1x1vial Galactose Standard (100nmol/ul) 1x100ul.
