<h3>Overview</h3>
<p>J&K D-Lactic dehydrogenase is a <strong>oxidoreductase</strong> (EC 1.1.1.28) catalyzing the reversible oxidation of D-lactate to pyruvate using NAD<sup>+</sup>. This solid enzyme, standardized at 50 U/mg, facilitates chiral synthesis in pharmaceutical processes. Molecular formula: C<sub>x</sub>H<sub>y</sub>N<sub>z</sub>O<sub>w</sub>P<sub>v</sub>; CAS: Not applicable for the enzyme protein itself.</p>
<h3>Application</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Pharmaceutical Manufacturing:</strong> Synthesis of optically active D-lactic acid precursors for biodegradable polymers.</li>
<li><strong>Diagnostics:</strong> Component in enzymatic assay kits for quantifying D-lactate levels in clinical samples.</li>
<li><strong>Biochemical Research:</strong> Study of metabolic pathways involving lactate metabolism and energy production.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Precautions</h3>
<p>Store at -20°C to maintain stability; avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Wear appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection during handling. Do not administer directly as a therapeutic agent; strictly for industrial or laboratory use only.</p>
