Product Information
Product Name	CD Urea Assay Kit II
Applications	For quantitative enzymatic determination of urea.
Features	Fast and sensitive. Linear detection range (20 µL sample): 1 mg/mL (0.17 mM) to 100 mg/mL (17 mM) urea in a 96-well plate assay. Convenient. The procedure involves adding a single working reagent and reading the absorbance after 5 minutes. Room temperature assay. No 37°C heater is needed. High-throughput. Homogeneous “mix-incubate-measure” type assay.Can be readily automated as a high-throughput 96-well plate assay for thousands of samples per day.
Detection Method	OD557nm
Sample Type	Urea in biological samples (e.g. plasma, serum, urine) and food/beverage samples (e.g. milk)
Species	All
Assay Time	5 min
Limit of Detection	1 mg/mL (0.17 mM)
Expiration Date	6 months
Description	UREA, the major end product of protein catabolism in animals, is primarily produced in the liver and secreted by the kidneys. It is the primary vehicle for the removal of toxic ammonia from the body. Urea determination is very useful for medical clinicians to assess the kidney function of patients. In general, increased urea levels are associated with nephritis, renal ischemia, urinary tract obstruction, and certain extrarenal diseases (e.g. congestive heart failure, liver diseases, and diabetes). Decreased levels often indicate acute hepatic insufficiency, but may also result from over-vigorous parenteral fluid therapy.CD colorimetric urea (BUN) assay is based on urease catalyzed conversion of urea to ammonium and carbon dioxide. The pH of the reaction medium is monitored by a chromogen and the intensity of the reaction product at 557 nm is directly proportional to the urea concentration in the sample.
Shipping Conditions	Shipping: RT
Storage	Storage: -20°C upon receipt
