More Details
Nitric oxide (NO) is a reactive radical that plays an important role in many key physiological functions. NO, an oxidation product of arginine by nitric oxide synthase, is involved in host defense and development, activation of regulatory proteins, and direct covalent interaction with functional biomolecules. Simple, direct, and automation-ready procedures for measuring NO are becoming popular in Research and Drug Discovery. Since NO is oxidized to nitrite and nitrate, it is common practice to quantitate total NO2-/NO3- as a measure of NO level. BioAssay Systems QuantiChrom™ Nitric Oxide Assay Kit is designed to accurately measure NO production following the reduction of nitrate to nitrite using improved Griess method. The procedure is simple and the time required for sample pretreatment and assay is reduced to as short as 30 min.No frequently asked questions for this new product. Please check back later.
