Metabolism Analysis

Metabolism assay kits for substrate-specific pathway analysis in cells and tissue

Profiling a new metabolic pathway often means sourcing a different kit for every analyte, one method for glucose, another for lipids, another for energy metabolites. These kits give you substrate-specific results in standard microplate formats, with no specialised equipment needed. Carbohydrate metabolism kits cover glucose in serum, urine, and cell lysate; amino acid and protein metabolism kits cover branched-chain amino acids, glutamine, proline, and arginine; lipid metabolism kits cover fatty acid uptake, triglycerides, and cholesterol; and energy metabolite and TCA-cycle kits cover ATP, NAD/NADH, NADP/NADPH, CoQ10, succinate, citrate, and malate. The NAD/NADH ratio and total ATP level indicate mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation activity, the lactate/pyruvate ratio reflects cytosolic redox state and glycolytic flux, and CoQ10 measurement addresses electron transport chain integrity.
