General description

Acid Sphingomyelinase (ASMase) is a key enzyme in the sphingolipid pathway that hydrolyzes sphingomyelin to phosphorylcholine and ceramide. Ceramide acts as a lipid second messenger and plays a crucial role in diseases such as cystic fibrosis, diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer′s disease.

The Acid Sphingomyelinase Activity Colorimetric Assay Kit is a simple and high throughput adaptable assay for measuring ASMase activity in a variety of tissues and cells. ASMase activity is determined by measuring a colorimetric product with absorbance at 570 nm (A570) proportional to the enzymatic activity present. One unit of acid sphingomyelinase is the amount of enzyme required to generate 1.0 μmole of choline per minute at pH 5.0 at 37 °C.

Application

This kit is suitable for the detection of ASMase activity in samples such as animal tissue, cell culture, and serum samples.

Features and Benefits

Compatible with high-throughput liquid handling systems.
