Glucose-6-Phosphate Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab83426) is a simple, sensitive and rapid test to quantify glucose-6-phospate (G6P) in a variety of samples. In the assay, glucose-6-phosphate is oxidized into an intermediate product which in turn converts the probe into an intensely colored product with an absorbance at OD=450 nm. This product can detect G6P in the range of 1-30 nmoles with a detection sensitivity ~10 μM G6P.

For higher sensitivity, we recommend our fluorometric assay Glucose-6-Phosphate Assay Kit - High Sensitivity (Fluorometric) (ab107923).

This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K657 Glucose-6-Phosphate Colorimetric Assay Kit. K657-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab83426.

Glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is a key sugar intermediate for glucose to get into cells, and then enter either metabolic pathways or storage. G6P can enter the glycolytic pathway, the pentose phosphate shunt or be stored as glycogen or starch. G6P is transformed by G6PDH to generate reducing equivalents in the form of NADPH. This is particularly important in red blood cells where a G6PDH deficiency leads to hemolytic anemia.

The quality of HiYield™ Plasmid Mini Kit is test on a lot-to-lot basis. The kits are tested by isolation of plasmid DNA from 3ml culture of E.coli DH5 transformed with the plasmid pUC19(A600>2units/ml). More than 20μg of plasmid DNA was quantified with spectrophotometer.
