Rat Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, mitochondrial (Acat1) ELISA Kit

Assay Genie supplies a sandwich ELISA kit developed for the accurate and reliable detection of rat Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, mitochondrial (ACAT1) levels across a range of sample types. The assay is reactive with rat samples and shows specificity for natural and recombinant rat ACAT1, a mitochondrial enzyme that plays a major role in ketone body metabolism. It is suitable for research in the cardiovascular area and accepts serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates, and other biological fluids.

Reported performance characteristics include a sensitivity of 7.88 pg/mL and a detection range of 15.6–1000 pg/mL. ACAT1 functions as a homotetramer located in the mitochondrion and is also known by the synonym acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (UniProt P17764). The product is intended for research use only.
