Description

D-Lactate Oxidase is a highly specific oxidoreductase enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of D-lactate to pyruvate and hydrogen peroxide. This precise catalytic activity makes it an indispensable reagent for the selective detection and quantification of D-lactate in complex matrices. It is a critical component for manufacturers and researchers in the diagnostic, food safety, and biotechnology sectors, where accurate measurement of lactate isomers is essential for quality control, clinical analysis, and metabolic studies.

Application

• Clinical Diagnostic Kits: Core enzyme in biosensors and test strips for measuring D-lactate levels in blood, serum, and other biological fluids, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions like D-lactic acidosis.
• Food & Beverage Analysis: Used in enzymatic assay kits to determine D-lactate concentration in fermented products (yogurt, cheese, pickles, beer, wine) for quality assurance and process monitoring.
• Biotechnological Research: Essential tool in enzymology and metabolic pathway studies, particularly for investigating microbial fermentation and mammalian lactate metabolism.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Employed in purity testing and stability studies of chiral pharmaceutical compounds where D-lactate is a precursor or metabolite.
• Veterinary Diagnostics: Applied in assays to diagnose ruminal acidosis and other digestive disorders in livestock by monitoring D-lactate in rumen fluid.
• Industrial Bioprocess Monitoring: Integrated into online sensor systems to monitor and control fermentation processes in real-time, optimizing yield and efficiency.

Quality Control

Our D-Lactate Oxidase is produced and tested under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high specific activity, purity, and stability. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing parameters such as activity units, protein content, and purity. We support compliance with relevant industry standards for diagnostic and research use.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Allow the vial to equilibrate to room temperature in a desiccator before opening to prevent condensation and moisture uptake. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
