Human Acetyl Coenzyme A Acetyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) ELISA Kit

The ACAT1 gene encodes a mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase essential to ketone body biosynthesis and isoleucine catabolism, making it a key target for studies on hepatic ketogenesis, fatty acid oxidation, and disorders of mitochondrial energy metabolism.

This colorimetric immunoassay from Assay Genie quantifies human ACAT1 protein in tissue homogenates and cell lysates, providing a research-use-only tool for cell biologists and biochemists working with hepatic cell lines, myotubes, or patient-derived fibroblast cultures.

Configured for 96 assays, the kit supports medium-throughput comparisons of disease versus control samples in a single-use microplate format, with reagents supplied in sealed vials. Refrigerated storage of unopened components is recommended prior to first use to preserve calibration of the chromogenic readout.
