Short Description
Cycling assay for total NAD and NADH determination.
Development Stage
Research-Grade Metabolic Assay Development
Description
The OXPHOSight™ NAD/NADH Assay Kit uses a cycling enzyme reaction to amplify signals, allowing for the quantification of cofactor ratios in small cell pellets. This assay validates the cellular redox state, which is a central regulator of metabolism and sirtuin activity. It supports research into aging, cancer, and metabolic diseases by measuring the availability of oxidizing equivalents.
