Application
Sarcosine assay kit provides a reliable, sensitive assay for the quantification of sarcosine in biological samples.

Description
Sarcosine, a natural amino acid, plays important roles as intermediate in the metabolism of choline, methionine, glycine, glutathione, creatine, purine and serine, etc. Detection of sarcosine level has wide applications in research and development. MesGen Biotechnology’s Sarcosine Assay Kit provides an accurate, convenient measure of sarcosine in variety biological samples. In the assay, sarcosine is specifically oxidized to generate a product that converts a colorless probe to a product with intense red color (λmax = 570 nm) and which is also highly fluorescent (Ex/Em = 538/587 nm). Sarcosine is therefore easily detected by either colorimetric or fluorometric methods with detection range 0.5-2500 μM.

Key Features
Sensitive and accurate. Use as little as 20 µL samples. Linear detection range in 96-well plate: 1 to 2500 µM sarcosine for colorimetric assays and 0.5 to 250 µM for fluorimetric assays.
Simple and high-throughput. The procedure involves addition of a single working reagent and incubation for 5-10 min at room temperature.

Samples
Serum, plasma, urine, saliva, cell culture medium, food, tissue extracts, agriculture etc

Storage conditions
The kit is shipped on dry ice. Store all components at -20°C.

Shelf life
6 months after receipt.
