Short Description
Determines aspartate levels.
Development Stage
Research-Grade Protein & Enzyme Assay Development
Description
The ModifiSite™ Aspartate Assay Kit maps amino acid metabolic fluxes to investigate excitatory neurotransmission and cellular nitrogen balance in neurological drug development. High specificity for aspartate prevents cross-reactivity in complex samples, enabling precise neurochemical analysis. This tool is essential for elucidating the mechanisms of action for drugs targeting glutamatergic pathways and metabolic disorders.
