Description
The Neonatal G6PD Screening Assay is a colorimetric enzymatic test for screening glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in newborn blood samples dried on filter paper.
G6PD Deficiency
The test is based on the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) contained in the sample. This reaction generates NADPH, the presence of which is quantified by colorimetry using a tetrazolium salt. The signal intensity obtained by measuring absorbance is directly proportional to the G-6-PD activity present in the sample.
