Brand
OXPHOSight
Development Stage
Research-Grade Metabolic Assay Development
Description
The OXPHOSight™ Free Fatty Acid Assay Kit quantifies circulating lipids to assess insulin resistance, supporting the discovery of drugs targeting lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation. This non-radioactive method enables safe, high-throughput identification of metabolic syndrome targets. It is widely used to evaluate the efficacy of lipid-modulating therapies and to understand the role of fatty acids in metabolic disorders.
