More Details
- AMMONIA (NH3) or its ion form ammonium (NH4+) is an important source of nitrogen for living systems and is ubiquitously present in the nature. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring NH3 are very desirable. BioAssay Systems’ updated ammonia/ammonium assay is based on an improved o-phthalaldehyde method. This reagent reacts with ammonia/ ammonium and forms a fluorescent product. The fluorescence intensity (λex/em = 415/475nm) is proportional to the ammonia concentration in the sample.
Do primary amine-containing buffers and chemicals interfere with the detection of NH3?
Buffers and chemicals such as Tris, Hepes, MOPS, EDTA, and various Amino Acids have been tested with this reagent. Their concentrations should be kept below 10 mM, but if they can’t be avoided, make certain to include a blank sample with just the chemical.
Do I need to dilute serum, plasma, or urine before testing?
Yes, serum and plasma should be diluted at least 10:1 with water prior to testing. Urine should be diluted 50:1 with water prior to assay.
