Blood Urea Nitrogen Enzymatic Kit is a microplate-based colorimetric assay for the determination of urea in serum samples produced from blood. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) is an important marker for normal kidney and liver function. Elevation of BUN levels is often an indication of intestinal and kidney obstruction and cardiac failure. Decreased BUN levels are often associated with kidney and liver damage. BUN is also a very useful tool for preclinical investigation of experimental drug formulations and BUN levels are commonly used to monitor and attenuate the toxic effects of experimental drug formulations in rodents.
Blood Urea Nitrogen Enzymatic Kit uses an enzyme-based assay to determine urea in liquid samples such as serum. The test is based on a highly proven method for urea determination. The Blood Urea Nitrogen Enzymatic Kit contains sufficient materials to test 42 samples in duplicate. The assay utilizes urease, a metabolic enzyme, to specifically detect urea in serum. The Blood Urea Nitrogen Enzymatic Kit provides rapid, accurate, proven results even in complex liquid mixtures. The limit of detection for the test is 8 ppm urea for serum. The linear range of the assay is 8 – 200 ppm analyte.

Product Info
N-(Amine-PEG8)-N-bis(PEG8-Propargyl) is a trifunctional linker containing an amino group and two terminal alkynes. These alkynes are frequently used in copper (I) click reactions with azides to form stable triazole linkages, while the primary amine is reactive towards carboxylic acids and other carbonyl compounds such as NHS esters, aldehydes or ketones.

Method recognition:
Improved method
The Acetic Acid (Acetate Kinase Manual Format) test kit is suitable for the measurement and analysis of acetic acid in food and beverages.
This rapid and reliable manual acetic acid kit is simple to perform (only two absorbance readings required), and because a true end-point is measured, does not involve complicated calculations like other kits. This product is very stable both during storage and use (> 2 years), has extended linearity (compared to ACS based kits), contains PVP to prevent tannin inhibition, and is performed at a relatively low pH (7.4), thus minimising ester hydrolysis related interference. This method is suitable for the measurement of acetic acid/acetate in foods, beverages and other materials.
Note for Content: The number of manual tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved. This can be readily accommodated using the MegaQuantTM Wave Spectrophotometer (D-MQWAVE).
