Assay Principle
Diazyme's Glycated Serum Protein Assay uses proteinase K to digest GSP into low molecular weight glycated protein fragments (GPF), and uses Diazyme's specific fructosaminase™, a microorganism originated amadoriase to catalyze the oxidative degradation of Amadori product GPF to yield PF or amino acids, glucosone and H2O2. The H2O2 released is measured by a colorimetric Trinder end-point reaction. The absorbance at 546-600 nm is proportional to the concentration of glycated serum proteins.
Intended use
Diazyme Glycated Serum Protein Assay in conjunction with Diazyme Glycated Serum Protein single calibrator is intended for the quantitative determination of glycated serum proteins (GSP; glycated albumins; fructosamine) in serum. The measurement of glycated serum proteins is useful for monitoring diabetic patients. For in vitro diagnostic use only.
