For the measurement of catalase activity in plasma, serum, erythrocyte lysates, tissue homogenates, and cell lysates.

• Assay 40 samples in duplicate
• Measure catalase activity down to 2 U/ml
• Plate-based colorimetric measurement (540 nm)

Catalase is an ubiquitous antioxidant enzyme that is present in most aerobic cells. It is involved in the detoxification of H₂O₂, a ROS that is a toxic product of both normal aerobic metabolism and pathogenic ROS production. Cayman’s Catalase Assay utilises the peroxidatic function of catalase for determination of enzyme activity.
