Product Description:
Na+K+ -ATPase is distributed widely in plants, animals, microorganisms and cells, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphorus. The activity of ATPase can be detected by measuring the amount of inorganic phosphorus.

Experimental examples:
1. Take 0.1 g of mouse heart and add 1 mL Reagent I for ice bath homogenization. After centrifugation at 4℃, 8000g, for 10 min, the supernatant was put on ice, and then the 96 well plate is used to operate according to the determination steps. The results showed that AT= 0.741, AC = 0.509, AS = 0.280, and AB = 0.043
Na+K+ - ATPase activity (U/g mass) = 7.5 × (AT-AC) ÷W= 73.42 U/g mass.

After centrifugation at 4℃, 8000g, for 10 min, the supernatant was put on ice, and then the 96 well plate was used to operate according to the determination steps. The results showed that AT = 0.275, AC = 0.239, AS = 0.280, and AB = 0.043
Na+K+ - ATPase activity (U/g mass) = 7.5×(AT-AC) ÷ W = 11.39 U/g mass.
