Product overview
L-Lactate Assay Kit (Colorimetric/Fluorometric) ab65330 provides a convenient means for detecting L(+)-Lactate in biological samples such as blood, cells, culture mediums, fermentation mediums, etc. There is no need for pretreatment or purification of samples.
In the lactate assay protocol, lactate specifically reacts with an enzyme mix to generate a product, which interacts with a lactate probe to produce color (570 nm) and fluorescence (at Ex/Em = 535/587 nm).
Lactate assay protocol summary:
- add samples (deproteinized) 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 K607 Lactate Colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit. K607-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab65330.
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.
Alternative L-Lactate assay kits offer different readout modes/wavelengths and sensitivity/range:
- this kit L-Lactate assay ab65330: colorimetric 570 nm, fluorometric Ex/Em 535/587 nm, range 0.001 mM - 10 mM
- our most popular L-Lactate assay ab65331: colorimetric 450nm, range 0.02 mM - 10 mM
- L-Lactate assay ab169557: fluorometric Ex/Em 535/587 nm, range 0.2 µM - 50 µM.Review our Metabolism Assay Guide to learn about assays for metabolites, metabolic enzymes, mitochondrial function, and oxidative stress, and also about how to assay metabolic function in live cells using your plate reader.

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).
