Fatty Acid Synthase

Fatty Acid Synthase; FAS; Fatty Acid Synthetase

Research highlights fatty acid synthase (FAS) as a significant participant in key metabolic and regulatory cascades. By catalyzing the covalent linkage of its substrates, it supports intracellular synthesis requirements. In addition, thus, accurate determination using this assay supports advanced exploration in biochemistry and molecular biology.

Optimized for high-throughput profiling of fatty acid synthase (FAS) in functional metabolomics, secondary metabolite profiling, and environmental adaptation research.

Robust Assay Design; Easy-to-Follow Protocol; Versatile Application Range

1. Pre-Centrifugation of Vials: Prior to opening any reagent vials, perform a brief centrifugation to collect all powder or liquids at the bottom of the tubes.

2. Reagent Equilibration & Mixing: Allow all kit reagents and buffers to equilibrate to room temperature (25 °C) before initiating the assay.

3. Sample Storage: If samples are not assayed immediately, please store at -80 °C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
