Description

Glucose 1-Dehydrogenase (FAD, Quinone) is a highly specific oxidoreductase enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of D-glucose to D-glucono-1,5-lactone, utilizing FAD as a cofactor and quinones as electron acceptors. This specificity makes it a critical reagent for the precise and selective quantification of glucose in complex matrices. It is essential for manufacturers and researchers in the diagnostic, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage industries who require reliable enzymatic components for biosensors, assay kits, and quality control processes.

Application

• Diagnostic Biosensors & Test Strips: Core enzymatic component for blood glucose monitoring systems and point-of-care testing devices.
• Clinical & Food Chemistry Assay Kits: Used in enzymatic, colorimetric, or electrochemical methods for the accurate determination of glucose concentration in serum, plasma, and food products.
• Biocatalysis & Synthetic Biology: Employed in enzymatic synthesis and bioelectrochemical systems for cofactor regeneration and specific oxidation reactions.
• Pharmaceutical R&D: Utilized in research for studying carbohydrate metabolism and developing novel therapeutic monitoring tools.
• Beverage & Fermentation Analysis: Applied in quality control labs to monitor sugar content during fermentation processes in beer, wine, and biofuel production.
• Academic & Industrial Research: Serves as a model enzyme in biochemistry studies of dehydrogenase mechanisms and electron transfer pathways.
