It is the first key enzyme in the glucose degradation pathway, catalyzing the conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate, which serves as the intersection point of glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway.Assay PrincipleHK catalyzes the synthesis of Glucose-6-Phosphate (G6P) from Glucose. Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PDH) then further catalyzes the dehydrogenation of G6P, generating NADPH. NADPH has a characteristic absorption peak at 340 nm.Component48T96TStorageExtraction Buffer60 mL60 mL×22-8℃Reagent Ⅰ14 mL28 mL2-8℃Reagent Ⅱ1EA1EA-20℃. Store in the dark.Reagent Ⅲ1EA1EA-20℃.

What should I do if the measured ΔA is too high or too low?If ΔA > 0.5, the sample HK activity is too high. Dilute the supernatant appropriately with Extraction Buffer (include the dilution factor *n* in the calculation) or shorten the reaction time to 5 min.If ΔA < 0.005, the sample HK activity is too low. Increase the sample volume (keep the Working Solution volume constant and adjust the variable in the formula accordingly) or extend the reaction time (e.g., to 15 or 30 min).2. Can multiple samples be assayed simultaneously for high-throughput detection?The initial reaction rate is fast. It is not recommended to run a large number of samples simultaneously. If a multichannel pipette is unavailable, it is best for two individuals to perform the experiment together—one person timing and the other measuring the absorbance—to ensure the accuracy of the results...
