| Product Introduction | Catalase is a ubiquitous enzyme that decomposes hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) into water and oxygen. In soil, it is produced by a wide range of microorganisms and its activity correlates strongly with general microbial abundance and aerobic metabolism. It is a classic and robust indicator of soil biological activity and is often used to assess the impact of contaminants, management practices, or environmental stress. This kit is optimized for microplate readers and measures catalase activity by quantifying the residual H₂O₂ after a fixed reaction time with soil, using a peroxidase-coupled colorimetric reaction. |
| Product Application | • General bioindicator of soil microbial activity and health. • Toxicity assessment of heavy metals, pesticides, or other pollutants on soil ecosystems. • Evaluation of the impact of farming practices (organic amendments, tillage), land use changes, or restoration efforts. • Basic research in soil ecology and biogeochemistry. |
| Product Advantages | • High-Throughput Microplate Format: The 110T/50S configuration allows efficient analysis of many soil samples and replicates in parallel. • Optimized for Soil: The procedure includes steps to handle soil particles and minimize turbidity interference in the reading. • Simple & Rapid: The reaction is straightforward, and the plate-based format significantly speeds up analysis time compared to traditional titration methods. • Widely Accepted Method: Based on a standard and well-referenced methodology in soil enzymology. |
