Sialic Acid Assay Kit can be used to detect Sialic Acid in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, saliva, urine and hydrothorax using a microplate reader. Sialic acid forms a purplish red complex with methyl resorcinol in the presence of an oxidizing reagent. The concentration of sialic acid can be calculated by measuring the absorbance at 560 nm.
