Product overview
The L-Arginine Assay Kit (ab241028) provides a quick, specific, and easy method for the measurement of total L-arginine concentrations in a wide variety of samples. In this enzyme-based assay, L-arginine is converted into a series of intermediates, which will further react with a probe producing a stable colorimetric signal (OD: 450 nm).
The kit is simple to use, sensitive and high-throughput adaptable and can detect as low as 1 nmol/well of L-arginine in biological samples.

Specificity of the detection of L-arginine over other amino acids: D-arginine and other L-amino acids were tested at a 2-fold molar excess (each AA: 40 nmol) vs L-arginine (20 nmol).

Estimations of L-arginine in two human serum sample (30 µL) and orange juice (1.6 µL). L-arginine concentrations were 0.278 mM and 0.069 mM in the two human serum samples, and 5.113 mM in orange juice. Assays were performed following the kit protocol.
