Amino Acid Assay Kits
Cancer cells have altered metabolism and are known for their metabolic abnormalities. One example is the Warburg effect, in which there is increased glycolytic activity even in the presence of oxygen. Cancer cells depend on a high rate of aerobic glycolysis for continued growth and survival.
Because amino acids are the most highly consumed nutrients by cancer cells and biosynthetic pathways, they are always in demand for different cancer subtypes.
BioVision's metabolism assays enable rapid, homogenous and sensitive methods for the detection of a number of amino acids from a wide range of sample types.
Key Features:
• Non-radioactive• Specific, homogeneous assay
• Convenient: minimal sample preparation; fast protocols (1-2 hours )
• Cost effective: 100 assays; High Throughput Screening compatible
• Validated: using mammalian tissues, cells, biological fluids
• The simplest, yet sensitive series of assays in the market!!!!

Description
K552: Aspartate Colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit
In the assay, aspartate is converted to pyruvate which is oxidized with the conversion of a probe into a highly colored and fluorescent species proportional to the amount of aspartate.
K555: Hydroxyproline Colorimetric Assay Kit
BioVision’s Hydroxyproline Assay Kit is designed to measure hydroxyproline in tissue or protein/peptide hydrolysates.
K556: Glutamine Colorimetric Assay Kit
BioVision’s Glutamine Colorimetric Assay kit is a simple and sensitive assay that detects the biologically relevant concentrations of Glutamine (Gln) in various fluids and tissues.
K557: Tryptophan Assay Kit (Fluorometric)
BioVision’s Tryptophan Assay Kit provides a simple, sensitive, and high-throughput adaptable assay that detects tryptophan concentration in biological fluids, including free and bound tryptophan in serum.
