Abcam's Glutathione Peroxidase Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab102530) is an assay where glutathione peroxidase (GPx) reduces the probe Cumene Hydroperoxide while oxidizing GSH to GSSG.The generated GSSG is reduced to GSH with consumption of NADPH by glutathione reductase (GR).he assay can be used to measure all of the glutathione dependent peroxidases in plasma, erythrocyte lysates, tissue homogenates, and cell lysates with a detection sensitivity of ~ 0.5 mU/ml of GPx in samples.

These enzymes increase the level of digestion in the stomach, increasing the amount of food broken down. Therefore, less undigested food is passed into the colon, and food nutrients are more available for absorption.igestive Enzymes. No matter what specific foods we eat, our diets are composed of protein, fat and carbohydrates. Digestive enzymes break down protein, carbohydrates and fats into progressively smaller components. Enzyme supplements normally contain amylase, protease and lipase.
By Steven Hefferon, CMT, PTA, CPRS. Proteolytic enzymes, also referred to as proteases, are enzymes that break down proteins into their smallest elements. If this breakdown of proteins happens in your gut, we call the enzymes digestive, because they help us digest our food.he most important thing that systemic proteolytic enzymes do is to break down excess fibrin in your circulatory system and in other connective tissue, such as your muscles. These enzymes bring nutrients and oxygen-rich blood that remove the metabolic waste produced by inflammation and excess fibrin.
