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.
Digestive enzymes are a group of enzymes that break down polymeric macromolecules into their smaller building blocks, in order to facilitate their absorption by the body. Digestive enzymes are found in the digestive tracts of animals and in the traps of carnivorous plants, where they aid in the digestion of food, as well as inside cells, especially in their lysosomes, where they function to maintain cellular survival. Digestive enzymes of diverse specificities are found in the saliva secreted by
