CheKine™ Micro Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase (ALDH) Activity As - 96 T

Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.10, ALDH) is a kind of aldehyde dehydrogenase, which is widely present in various animals, plants and microorganisms. The main effect is the oxidation of acetaldehyde to acetic acid, which plays a major role in alcohol metabolism. In humans and many animals, mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (MDA) can convert alcohols that are harmful to organisms, so it has attracted great attention in the research of cellular detoxification. At the same time, aldehyde dehydrogenase has been widely used in molecular biology and the detection of related diseases. In the presence of coenzymeⅠ, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of acetaldehyde and NAD+ to acetate and NADH, and the absorbance value at 340 nm increases. The activity of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase can be calculated by measuring the absorbance value at 340 nm.
