Amplite® Colorimetric Glucose Oxidase Assay Kit
The glucose oxidase is a dimeric protein that catalyzes the oxidation of beta-D-glucose into hydrogen peroxide and D-glucono-1,5-lactone, which is hydrolyzed to gluconic acid. It is widely used for the determination of glucose in body fluids and in removing residual glucose and oxygen from beverages, food and other agricultural products. Furthermore, Glucose oxidase is commonly used in biosensors to detect glucose. The Amplite® Glucose Oxidase Assay Kit provides a quick and sensitive method for the measurement of glucose oxidase in solution. It can be performed in a convenient 96-well or 384-well microtiter plate format and readily adapted to automation without a separation step. The kit uses our Amplite® Red substrate which can be monitored using an absorbance microplate reader at 570 nm.
Example protocol
AT A GLANCE
Protocol Summary
- Prepare glucose oxidase standards or test samples (50 µL)
- Add working solution (50 µL)
- Incubate at 37 °C for 10 - 30 minutes
- Monitor absorbance at OD = 570 nm
PREPARATION OF STOCK SOLUTIONS
Unless otherwise noted, all unused stock solutions should be divided into single-use aliquots and stored at -20 °C after preparation. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Note The Amplite™ Red is unstable in the presence of thiols such as dithiothreitol (DTT) and 2-mercaptoethanol. The final concentration of DTT or 2-mercaptoethanol in the reaction should be no higher than 10 µM. The Amplite™ Red is also unstable at high pH (>8.5). Therefore, the reaction should be performed at pH 7 – 8. The provided assay buffer (pH 7.4) is recommended.
1. Amplite™ Red stock solution (250X)
Add 100 µL of DMSO (Component E) into the vial of Amplite™ Red (Component A). Note The Amplite™ Red is unstable in the presence of thiols such as dithiothreitol (DTT) and 2-mercaptoethanol. The final concentration of DTT or 2-mercaptoethanol in the reaction should be no higher than 10 µM. The Amplite™ Red is also unstable at high pH (>8.5). Therefore, the reaction should be performed at pH 7 – 8. The provided assay buffer (pH 7.4) is recommended.
2. HRP stock solution (50X)
Add 1 mL of Assay Buffer (Component B) into the vial of Horseradish Peroxidase (Component C).3. Glucose oxidase stock solution (100 U/mL)
Add 1 mL of Assay Buffer (Component B) into the vial of Glucose Oxidase (Component D).4. Glucose stock solution (10X)
Add 5 mL of Assay Buffer (Component B) into the vial of Glucose (Component F).PREPARATION OF STANDARD SOLUTION

Glucose Oxidase standard
Prepare a glucose oxidase standard by diluting 2 µL of the 100 U/mL Glucose Oxidase stock solution into 200 µL of Assay Buffer (Component B) to have 1000 mU/mL glucose oxidase standard solution. Then perform 1:100 serial dilution followed by 1:2 serial dilutions to get serially diluted glucose oxidase standards from 10 mU/mL to 0.156 mU/mL (GOS1 - GOS7).PREPARATION OF WORKING SOLUTION
Add 20 µL of Amplite™ Red stock solution (250X), 100 µL of HRP stock solution (50X), and 500 µL of Glucose stock solution (10X) into 4.4 mL of Assay Buffer (Component B) to make 5 mL of working solution.
SAMPLE EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOL
Table 1. Layout of glucose oxidase standards and test samples in a clear bottom 96-well microplate. GOS = Glucose Oxidase Standards (GOS1 - GOS7, 0.156 to 10 mU/mL), BL = Blank Control, TS = Test Samples.

| Well | Volume | Reagent |
| GOS1 - GOS7 | 50 µL | Serial Dilution (0.156 to 10 mU/mL) |
| BL | 50 µL | Assay Buffer (Component B) |
| TS | 50 µL | test sample |
- Prepare glucose oxidase standards (GOS), blank controls (BL), and test samples (TS) according to the layout provided in Tables 1 and 2. For a 384-well plate, use 25 µL of reagent per well instead of 50 µL.
- Add 50 µL of working solution to each well of glucose oxidase standard, blank control, and test samples to make the total assay volume of 100 µL/well. For a 384-well plate, add 25 µL of GO working solution into each well instead, for a total volume of 50 µL/well.
- Incubate the reaction for 10 to 30 minutes at 37 °C, protected from light.
- Monitor the absorbance increase with an absorbance plate reader at OD = 570 nm.
