FEATURED MaxDiscovery Assay Kit

MaxDiscovery AST Assays

The MaxDiscovery™ Aspartate Transaminase (AST) Cytotoxicity Kit is a plate-based colorimetric enzymatic assay for the determination of the aspartate transaminase enzyme in cultured cell lines.

Aspartate transaminase (AST) also known as aspartate aminotransferase or (sGOT) is a metabolic enzyme expressed in a host of mammalian cell types. Upon cell damage or lysis the enzyme is released into the cell culture supernatant and is thus a useful tool for the investigation of cytotoxicity effects of experimental drug formulations and cell transfection.

The MaxDiscovery™ Aspartate Transaminase (AST) Cytotoxicity Kit has the capacity for 192 determinations or testing of 84 samples in duplicate (using 12 wells for standards).

Benefits:

• High sensitivity with low detection limit
• Easily integrated into existing cell culture parameters
• User-friendly manual
• High compatibility across a broad range of cell lines
• Can be used with media containing high serum concentrations with confidence
• A robust enzyme-based assay
• Does not require expensive instrumentation
• Highly reproducible results
• Specially formulated BIOO Booster reagent significantly improves assay signal
• Measure absorbance in UV spectrum (340 nm)

Also available: The MaxDiscovery™ Alanine Transaminase (AST) Enzymatic Assay Kit
