Lightning-Link™ Lightning-Link
is the easiest and quickest method
available for preparing Glucose
Oxidase conjugated antibodies
or other proteins, requiring just
30 seconds hands-on time, regardless
of scale. GOx is covalently attached
in a controlled process at near-neutral
pH. Absence of desalting/dialysis
steps means that conjugations
can be carried out even at microgram
scale without losses.
Glucose Oxidase Glucose
oxidase is an enzyme produced and purified
from Aspergillus niger which catalyses
the oxidation of glucose with the release
of hydrogen peroxide. It's molecular weight
is 80kDa, but it exists as a dimer of
160kDa Measurement of glucose by GOx is
used in the food industry, in fermentation
and, most importantly, as the basis of
biosensors for the diagnosis of diabetes.
