Citrate Synthase (CS) Activity Assay Kit

• Target:

  CS

• Type:

  Colorimetric method

• Field of Research:

  Mitochondria Function; Tricarboxylic Acid (TCA) Cycle

• Assay Principle:

  Citrate synthetase (CS) catalyzes acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to produce limonyl-CoA, which can further produce CoA. The yellow product generated by this reaction has a characteristic absorption peak at 412 nm. The activity of CS can be calculated by measuring the change of absorbance value at 412 nm.
