Osteogenesis Assay Kit                                                                                                                                                                                Price

Product Description: The osteogenesis assay kit is based on the alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-mediated conversion of p-nitrophenol phosphate
to nitrophenol in an alkaline buffer. Nitrophenol exhibits an absorption maximum at 405-415 nm. The assay can also be used to examine cell
differentiation such as osteogenesis, which is associated with increased expression of ALP. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles of the assay solution
should be avoided. The enzyme assay system can be completed in as short as 10 minutes. The method is adaptable to automation.

Kit Components:

10x Cell Lysis Solution: 25 ml, store at RT
ALP Assay Solution: 50 ml, store in aliquots at -20ºC

MSDS: p-nitrophenol phosphate, Tris

                   & Clinical Application
Measuring the activities of alkaline
phosphatase (Alk) and beta-galactosidase
(Gal) in crude cell extracts. Early and late
passage bone marrow mesenchymal
stem cells were solubilized in a lysis
buffer, and cell lysates were mixed with
Alk and Gal assay solutions. The assays
demonstrate differential changes in
enzyme activities associated with adult
stem cell senescence in culture.
