Descriptions
Lactate 2-monooxygenase (Lactate oxidase) is a member of the flavoprotein family. It oxidizes lactate to form pyruvate. Since this reaction does not require an exogenous coenzyme as an electron acceptor, it holds great promise for practical applications.
Applications
Lactate 2-monooxygenase is applied as a core biorecognition element in enzymatic lactate diagnostic kits for accurate lactate quantification in clinical specimens, supporting diagnosis of lactic acidosis, tissue hypoperfusion and systemic metabolic disorders.
