Nitric oxide (NO) is a reactive radical that plays an important role in many key physiological functions. NO, an oxidation product of arginine by nitric oxide synthase, is involved in host defense and development, activation of regulatory proteins and direct covalent interaction with functional biomolecules.

The Nitric Oxide Assay Kit may be used for:

• Cardiovascular Research
• Neurological Research
• Oxidative Stress Research

The kit is suitable for the quantitative determination of nitric oxide (nitrate/nitrite) and evaluation of drug effects on its metabolism in plasma, serum, urine, tissue, cells and foods.

Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring NO are becoming popular in research and drug discovery. Since NO is oxidized to nitrite and nitrate, it is common practice to quantitate total NO2-/NO3- as a measure for NO level. The Nitric Oxide Assay Kit is designed to accurately measure NO production following reduction of nitrate to nitrite using an improved Griess method. The procedure is simple and the time required for sample pretreatment and assay is reduced to as short as 30 minutes.

High Sensitivity and Accuracy: Detect Nitric Oxide (NO) levels ranging from 0.6 - 200 μM with a short 30 minute procedure, providing both convenience and sensitivity.

Compatibility with High-Throughput Systems: Easily incorporate our kit into high-throughput handling systems, ensuring smooth and accurate processing, enhancing efficiency in your laboratory workflow.
