Heparanase and Hyaluronidase Activity Kits

Effectively measure enzyme activity

AMSBIO supplies Razie assay kits (Heparanase and Hyaluronidase Activity Assay Kits) to measure enzyme activity of heparanase and hyaluronidase, respectively, in cell culture supernatants, human plasma, biological fluids and tissue samples. Our kits have been used for research into anti-inflammatory responses, kidney disease and cancer research. Heparanase and hyaluranidase enzymes both play an important role in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Our kits provide a solution to the performance and standardization problems found with traditional measurement techniques used for these types of enzymes.
