AMPLEX RED HYDROGEN PE 1 KIT，A22188，Invitrogen

The Amplex® Red Hydrogen Peroxide/Peroxidase Assay Kit contains a sensitive, one-step assay that uses the Amplex® Red reagent (10-acetyl-3,7-dihydroxyphenoxazine) to detect hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) or peroxidase activity. The Amplex® Red reagent, in combination with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), has been used to detect H₂O₂ released from biological samples, including cells, or generated in enzyme-coupled reactions. Furthermore, Amplex® Red reagent can be used as an ultrasensitive assay for peroxidase activity when H₂O₂ is in excess. In the presence of peroxidase, the Amplex® Red reagent reacts with H₂O₂ in a 1:1 stoichiometry to produce the red-fluorescent oxidation product, resorufin. Resorufin has excitation and emission maxima of approximately 571 nm and 585 nm, respectively, and because the extinction coefficient is high (58,000 ± 5,000 cm–¹M–¹), you can perform the assay fluorometrically or spectrophotometrically. This reaction has been used to detect as little as 10 picomoles of H₂O₂ in a 100 µL volume or 1 x 10–5 U/mL of HRP.

Amplex® Red Hydrogen Peroxide/Peroxidase Assay Kit Specifications:
• Ex/Em of reaction product resorufin: ~571/585 nm
• Sensitive one-step assay to detect hydrogen peroxide or peroxidase in vitro
• Can detect as little as 10 picomoles of hydrogen peroxide or 10 µU/mL of horseradish peroxidase activity in a 100 µL assay volume
• Provides sufficient reagents for approximately 500 assays using reaction volumes of 100 µL per assay
• Designed for a 96-well fluorescence or absorbance microplate reader, but can be easily adapted for other volumes, for fluorimeters, and for spectrophotometers
