Product details.

SGOT-L (R1-R2) is a liquid reagent kit for the quantitative estimation of glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (AST) activity in serum or plasma, by the kinetic procedure recommended by the IFCC. AST forms oxaloacetate from L-aspartate and α-ketoglutarate; malate dehydrogenase reduces it while oxidising NADH, and the fall in absorbance at 340 nm is proportional to AST activity. Manufactured at Reckon’s Vadodara facility under ISO 13485:2016 quality management, and released against reference standards before dispatch.

Procedure at a glance5 steps

Pour 1 bottle of R2 into the R1 bottle and wait 2 minutes, or mix 4 parts of R1 with 1 part of R2 as needed.
Add 0.05 ml of sample to 1.0 ml of working reagent (or to 0.8 ml of R1 and 0.2 ml of R2) and mix.
After 60 seconds at 37 °C, read the absorbance at 340 nm every 30 seconds for 2 minutes.
Work out the mean change in absorbance per minute (ΔA/min).
SGOT (IU/L) = ΔA/min × 3376.
