Used in environmental and agricultural research to assess soil microbial activity and overall soil health. The kit enables quantification of dehydrogenase enzyme levels, which are directly linked to microbial metabolic activity in soil samples. It is widely applied in studies evaluating the impact of pollutants, pesticides, fertilizers, and land management practices on soil ecosystems. Researchers use it to compare microbial activity across different soil types or under various treatment conditions. The ELISA format provides a sensitive and specific method for detecting dehydrogenase, making it suitable for high-throughput analysis in ecological monitoring and bioremediation projects.
