Rat Carnitine Acetyltransferase (CRAT) ELISA Kit

CRAT (carnitine acetyltransferase) is a mitochondrial matrix enzyme that catalyzes the reversible transfer of acetyl groups between carnitine and acetyl-CoA, a process central to fatty acid oxidation and cellular energy homeostasis. Assay Genie offers this quantitative immunoassay for measuring rat CRAT protein concentrations, enabling studies in metabolic biochemistry and mitochondrial bioenergetics research.

The kit is intended for in vitro research applications and accommodates tissue homogenates and cell lysates from rat specimens. Configured for 96 assays per kit, the product provides sufficient reagent volume for moderate-throughput experimental designs. Reagents require refrigerated storage to maintain antibody binding activity and standard stability across the shelf life.

Researchers investigating metabolic syndrome, cardiac energetics, exercise physiology, or mitochondrial dysfunction can employ this Assay Genie reagent to compare CRAT expression across treatment groups, dietary interventions, or genetic models. The assay complements western blot and PCR approaches by delivering quantitative protein-level readouts in a microplate format.
