Product overview
L-Lactate Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab65331) uses an assay protocol where lactate is oxidized by lactate dehydrogenase to generate a product which interacts with a probe to produce a color (λmax = 450 nm).
The kit detects L(+)-Lactate in biological samples such as serum or plasma, cells, tissues, cell culture and fermentation media.
Lactate assay protocol summary:
- add samples and standards to wells
- add reaction mix and incubate for 30 min at room temp
- analyze with microplate reader -
Notes
This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K627 Lactate Colorimetric Assay Kit II. K627-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab65331.
L(+)-Lactate is the major stereo-isomer of lactate formed in human intermediary metabolism and is present in blood. D(-)-Lactate is also present (see D-Lactate assay kits) but only at about 1-5% of the concentration of L(+)-Lactate.
L-Lactate assay kit ab65331 is our most popular L-Lactate assay kit (colorimetric 450nm, range 0.02 mM - 10 mM). Alternative L-Lactate assay kits offer different readout modes/wavelengths and sensitivity/range:
- L-Lactate assay ab65330: colorimetric 570 nm, fluorometric Ex/Em 535/587 nm, range 0.001 mM - 10 mM
- L-Lactate assay ab169557: fluorometric Ex/Em 535/587 nm, range 0.2 µM - 50 µM

Relevance
Lactate (CH3CH(OH)COO-) plays important roles in many biological processes. Abnormal high concentration of lactate has been related to disease states such as diabetes and lactate acidosis, etc. L(+)-Lactate is the major stereoisomer of lactate formed in human intermediary metabolism and is present in blood. The lactate to pyruvate ratio reflects the redox state of the cell and describes the balance beween NAD+ and NADH, which is dependent on the interconversion of lactate and pyruvate via lactate dehydrogenase (LDH).
