Product details
Xanthine Oxidase Activity Assay Kit ab102522 is an easy and sensitive assay to determine xanthine oxidase activity in variety of samples.
In the xanthine oxidase assay protocol, xanthine oxidase oxidizes xanthine to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) which reacts stoichiometrically with a probe to generate color (at OD = 570 nm) and fluorescence (at Ex/Em = 535/587 nm). Since the color or fluorescence intensity is proportional to XO content, the XO activity can be accurately measured.
The kit detects 1-100 mU xanthine oxidase in 100 μl reaction volume.
Xanthine oxidase assay protocol summary:
- add samples and standards to wells
- add reaction mix
- analyze with microplate reader immediately and after 10-20 min
This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K710 Xanthine Oxidase Activity Colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit. K710-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab102522.
Xanthine oxidase (XO, EC 1.17.3.2 ) is present in appreciable amounts in the liver and jejunum in healthy individuals. However, in various liver disorders, XO is released into circulation. Therefore, determination of serum XO level serves as a sensitive indicator of acute liver damage such as jaundice.

Biological function summary
Xanthine oxidase has a significant role in the production of reactive oxygen species such as superoxide during the process of purine catabolism. In its dehydrogenase form XO can interconvert into an oxidase form engaging more readily in the electron transfer that leads to reactive oxygen species generation. Xanthine oxidase is not a part of any larger complex but functions as a dimer with two identical subunits that facilitate its metabolic roles.
Pathways
The enzyme is pivotal in the purine degradation pathway which is essential for the breakdown and eventual excretion of purine compounds as uric acid. This pathway connects it to enzymes like hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) which performs salvage reactions to recycle purines. Additionally xanthine oxidase's role in reactive oxygen species production links it to oxidative stress pathways impacting proteins such as superoxide dismutase which works to detoxify reactive intermediates.
