Glucose Assay Kit II
Glucose plays a very important role in carbohydrate metabolism as it is a source of energy as well as starting material for different types of metabolism. Eton's Glucose Assay Kit provides a simple and reliable method for quantifying glucose in biological samples, such as blood(serum and plasma),culture and fermentation media etc. In the assay, glucose is oxidized by enzyme reactions to yield color product, which can be measured at 570nm for colorimetric assay, and the color intensity is proportional to Glucose concentrations, therefore, the sample glucose concentration can be accurately calculated based on the glucose standards.

Reagent Preparation Note: All reagents are frozen. We recommend you spin small vials before opening. 1. Glucose Assay Buffer(10x) Note: Please don’t do dilution in the provided Glucose Assay Buffer bottle itself. The bottle contains 10ml of 10x Glucose Assay Buffer. The assay buffer must be equilibrated to room temperature. Please make appropriate amount of 1xGlucose Assay Buffer for the assay, for example, by diluting 1ml of 10xGlucose Assay Buffer with 9 ml of distilled water. Prepare additional diluted assay buffer if needed. Store at -80?C. 2. Glucose Standard (10x) Note: Please don’t do dilution in the provided Glucose Standard vial itself. The vial contains 100µl of 2mM Glucose Standard. The standard must be equilibrated to room temperature before use. Dilute 100µl of 2mM Glucose Standard with 900µl of diluted Glucose Assay Buffer to prepare a 200μM Glucose Standard. 1ml of diluted Glucose Standard is enough for making 3 standard curves if assayed in duplicate. Store at -80?C. 3. Assay Probe The vial contains 45μl of Assay Probe. The assay probe must be equilibrated to room temperature before use. It is sufficient for 100 wells.Protect from light. Store at -80?C. 4. Glucose Enzyme Mix The vial contains 70μl of Glucose Enzyme Mix. The enzyme mix must be thawed on ice before use. It is sufficient for 100 wells. Store at -80?C. |
Protocol 1.Sample Preparation Blood (serum/plasma), urine, other body fluids can be measured directly by a series of dilutions of the sample (1/2; 1/4; 1/8; …) to ensure the readings are within the standard curve range.Your samples can be diluted with dH2O or diluted Glucose Assay Buffer. Note: |
2.Standard Curve Prepation Add 50μl, 40μl, 30μl, 20μl, 10μl, 5μl, 1μl, and 0μl of diluted Glucose Standard to each well, then adjust volume to 50μl/well with diluted Glucose Assay Buffer. |
3.Reaction Solution Preparation 12µlGlucose Assay Enzyme Mix
8µlAssay Probe
1ml of Reaction Solution is enough for ~20 wells. Prepare appropriate amount of Reaction Solution for the number of assays to be performed. Note:Please do not keep any leftover Reaction Solution as it has to be made fresh right beforeyou run assays. If old Reaction Solution is used, assays will not work. |
4.Perform the assay a. Mix the reaction solution well and add 50μl of the reaction solution to each well containing the Glucose standards and test samples. |
5. Calculation a. Average the OD570 nm values of replicate wells of each Glucose Standard, test samples, and blank. Then, correct background by subtracting the value derived from the blank from all sample readings. Glucose (μM)= [ (Corrected absorbance)-(y-intercept)]/Slope |
