Applications For the determination of fructosyl-peptide and fructosyl-L-amino acid. Also it is useful for the determination of HbA1c by using protease together. (HbA1c is used as a test makar to diagnose diabetes. HbA1c can also be quantified by measuring the fructosyl peptide or fructosyl-L-amino acid excised by the protease from HbA1c.)
Appearance Yellow lyophilizate
Molecular Weight ca. 60 kDa (Gel filtration)
Notes Stable at 37 °C for at least one month
