Unitika provides thermostable enzymes derived from thermophilic organisms.

These enzymes are useful for in vitro diagnostic reagents for clinical chemistry and other enzymatic analyses.

Among them, our DIAPHORASE I is one of the most versatile enzymes.

As the DIAPHORASE I catalyzes the reduction of pigments to dye and oxidation of NADH or NADPH, the DIAPHORASE I is the key component of dry chemistry especially for POCT (point of care testing) devices.

Coupled with Glucose dehydrogenase, the DIAPHORASE I produces dye in proportion to Glucose. In the same manner, many other substrates can be measured with the respective dehydrogenases.
