L-Lactate dehydrogenase, Microorganism

• CAT Number: I042549
• CAS Number: 9001-60-9
• Purity: ≥95%

L-Lactate dehydrogenase from microorganisms (Cat No.: I042549) is an enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and L-lactate, playing a key role in anaerobic glycolysis. Sourced from bacteria or fungi, it offers advantages such as high stability and ease of production. This enzyme is widely used in clinical diagnostics to measure lactate levels, and in biotechnology for metabolic studies and fermentation processes. Its microbial origin makes it suitable for large-scale applications in research, diagnostics, and industrial biocatalysis.
