Product datasheet Acetate Assay Kit (Colorimetric) ab204719 2 Images Overview Product name Acetate Assay Kit (Colorimetric) Detection method Colorimetric Sample type Serum, Plasma, Tissue, Adherent cells, Suspension cells Assay type Quantitative Sensitivity < 20 µM Species reactivity Reacts with: Human Product overview Acetate Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab204719) acetate is an assay where free acetate is converted to an intermediate in the presence of Acetate Enzyme Mix and Acetate Substrate Mix. The intermediate reduces the probe to a colored product with strong absorbance at OD=450 nm. This kit is rapid, simple and sensitive. It can detect less than 20 µM free acetate in various samples. Notes Acetate is an important component for biosynthesis. In living organisms, acetylation/deacetylation of proteins is critical for posttranslational regulation of their functions. When bound to CoA, Acetyl-CoA is central to metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. It is also involved in the synthesis of biogenic compounds such as neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
