NADP-dependent Isopropanol Dehydrogenase, while of some importance as a detoxification mechanism for isopropanol poisoning, has much greater impact in industrial biotech applications as an NADPH regeneration tool. Given that many bio industrial chemicals of importance are rather hydrophobic, isopropanol serves a dual role, both as a cosubstrate and as a solubility enhancer. AkrivisBio’s Isopropanol Dehydrogenase Activity Assay is a simple sensitive way to measure enzyme activity in a variety of samples with a sensitivity below 1 µUnit.
