The Pyruvate-Glo™ Assay is a bioluminescent assay for rapid and sensitive detection of pyruvate. Pyruvate is a key energy metabolite that is an intermediate in various cell biochemical pathways, including the TCA cycle and glycolysis. The Pyruvate-Glo™ Assay is a two-step assay that involves an initial incubation with pyruvate oxidase and H2O2 Substrate, followed by addition of Pyruvate -Glo™ detection reagent. Results are available in less than 90 minutes. The assay is linear to 50μM pyruvate and sensitive to <800nM The result is a light signal proportional to the starting pyruvate concentration in the sample.
