CheKine™ Mirco Pectin Lyase (PL) Activity Assay Kit - 96 T

Pectin lyase (EC4.2.2.10) is an important component of pectinases, which is a depolymerase that can degrade plant cell walls,leading to the softening or even death of plant tissues. It has a wide range of sources, mainly from microorganisms. It can be used for clarification of fruit juice and wine, improving the yield of fruit juice, purification of plant viruses, bleaching of pulp, and biorefining of textiles. It has potential application value in reducing environmental pollution and lowering energy consumption. The CheKine™ Mirco Pectin Lyase Activity Assay Kit offers a simple, convenient, and rapid method for detecting PL activity, suitable for samples such as plant tissues, bacteria, fungi, and culture media. Its principle involves pectin lyase acting on the α-1,4-glycosidic bonds in pectin to produce unsaturated oligogalacturonic acids with an unsaturated bond between C4 and C5 at the reducing end, which have a characteristic absorption peak at 235 nm.
