Description

For quantitative determination of acetic acid or acetate and evaluation of drug effects on acetate metabolism. Key Features: Sensitive. Use as little as 10 µL samples. Detection range: 0.20 to 20 mM acetate for colorimetric assays and 0.13 to 2 mM for fluorimetric assays. Simple. The assay involves adding a single working reagent, incubation for 30 min at room temperature and read. Convenient and high-throughput. Homogeneous “mix-incubate-measure” type assay. Can be readily automated on HTS liquid handling systems for processing thousands of samples per day. Method: OD570nm, or FL530/585nm. Samples: Serum, plasma, food, agriculture and environment. Species: All. Procedure: Assay takes 30 min. Kit size: 100 tests. Detection limit: 0.13 mM.
