How the assay works
In Pyrophosphate Assay Kit (Colorimetric / Fluorometric)assay protocol, PPi produced during biotic processes is detected through a series of reactions which utilize a proprietary enzyme mix and probe, generating a stable product that can be quantified by either colorimetric or fluorometric readout. Generated fluorescence (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm) or color (OD: 570 nm) intensities are directly proportional to the concentrations of pyrophosphate, enabling precise measurements. Monomeric inorganic phosphate (Pi) does not interfere with the assay.
Pyrophosphate Assay Kit (Colorimetric / Fluorometric)protocol summary:
- Prepare samples.
- Prepare standard curve.
- Prepare reaction mix.
- Add samples, controls and standards to wells and incubate plate protected from light.
- Measure absorbance (570 nm) or fluorescence EX/Em = 535/587 nm).
