The enzyme removes acetyl groups attached via an O- group, mainly 9-, 8- and 7-. It can be used for monitoring of diacetylation of sialic acids on products such as erythropoietin (EPO).The Zyme Acetyl Esterase Kit removes 9-, 8- and 7-O-acetyl groups from released sialic acids, released glycans or glycoproteins. It is commonly used for the characterization of highly-sialylated biotherapeutics such as EPO, FSH and blood clotting factors.Molecular Weight76.3 kDContentsAcetyl esterase – PBS pH7.5 buffer containing 10 mM Tris-HClReaction Buffer – 500 mM sodium acetate pH5.5Number of SamplesSufficient for up to 50 samples.Amount of SampleUp to 10 µg glycoprotein, up to 2.5 µg released glycans and up to 1 µg free sialic acid per digestion.Suitable SamplesAcetyl esterase (sialate-O-acetylesterase) can act upon complex glycoprotein samples, such as erythropoietin (EPO), bovine submaxillary mucin and oral epithelial cell-bound glycans, and on N- and O-glycans released from a glycoprotein. Either fluorescently labelled or unlabelled glycans are suitable. It can also be used on released sialic acids.Unit DefinitionOne unit (U) of acetyl esterase is defined as the amount of enzyme required to produce 300 µmole of 4-nitrophenol and acetate in 1 minute at 30°C in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl, 140 mM NaCl, pH 8.5, from 4-nitrophenyl acetate, a chromogenic esterase substrateStorageProtect from sources of heat and light. When stored correctly, the enzyme should be stable for 24 months from date of purchase. Exposure to ambient temperatures (20 – 26°C) over 3 days does not result in a reduction of enzymatic activity.ShippingThe product should be shipped at 4°C.HandlingEnsure that any glass, plastic ware or solvents used with this item are free of environmental carbohydrates. Use powder-free gloves for all sample handling procedures and avoid contamination with environmental carbohydrate.SafetyPlease read the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) for all chemicals used. All processes involving labelling reagents should be performed using appropriate personal safety protection – safety glasses, chemically resistant gloves (e.g. nitrile), lab coat, and when appropriate, in a laboratory fume cupboard.For research use only. Not for human or drug use ApplicationAcetyl esterase (sialate-O-acetylesterase) can be used to remove 9-, 8- and 7-O-acetyl groups from released sialic acids, released glycans or glycoproteins...

Succinic acid (or succinate) is found in all plant and animal materials as a result of the central metabolic role played by this dicarboxylic acid in the Citric Acid Cycle. Succinic acid concentrations are monitored in the manufacture of numerous foodstuffs and beverages, including wine, soy sauce, soy bean flour, fruit juice and dairy products (e.g. cheese).Product Description: Succinic acid is found in all plant and animal materials as a result of the central metabolic role played by this dicarboxylic acid in the Citric Acid Cycle. Succinic acid concentrations are monitored in the manufacture of numerous foodstuffs and beverages, including wine, soy sauce, soy bean flour, fruit juice and dairy products (e.g. cheese). The ripening process of apples can be followed by monitoring the falling levels of succinic acid. The occurrence of > 5 mg/kg of this acid in egg and egg products is indicative of microbial contamination. Apart from use as a flavouring agent in the food and beverage industries, succinic acid finds many other non-food applications, such as in the production of dyes, drugs, perfumes, lacquers, photographic chemicals and coolants. Preparation Instructions:Suitable for succinate determination in food, beverage, agricultural products, and other biological samples.Note for Content:The number of manual tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved. This can be readily accommodated using the MegaQuantTM Wave Spectrophotometer (D-MQWAVE).Browse all of our organic acid assay kits.Principle:The Succinate Assay Kit provides a simple, one step assay for measuring succinate. In this assay succinate is converted to pyruvate which reacts with specific reagents and dye to form a colored product.

It is the only kit that allows users to select and couple their choice of carboxylated particle with their chosen protein.Employing a unique mechanism to immobilise proteins, Anteo′s advantages outweigh those of conventional covalent chemistries such as NHS/EDC or passive binding. This facilitates coupling of antibodies with ease, improved functionality and reproducibility, leading to better uniformity between experiments.Anteo′s Activation Reagent is water-based and replaces the dry chemicals you would use with the traditional NHS/EDC method. Our One-Step-Activation only takes one hour, and improves efficiency in terms of both time and cost. It also provides the ability to either store activated particles up to 12 months for later use, or to immediately couple proteins.Particle-Based Immunoassays, Lateral Flow, Bioseparations and Immunoprecipitation...
