Lipid Metabolism Assays
Lipids fuel energy storage, membranes and signalling. Quantify cholesterol and lipoproteins, triglyceride, fatty acid uptake and oxidation, and lipase activity on a standard plate reader.
Total cholesterol, HDL and LDL/VLDL, triglyceride and phospholipid.
Fatty acid uptake, fatty acid oxidation, free fatty acids, glycerol and adipolysis.
Lipase, acetyl-CoA carboxylase and phospholipase D activity.
Lipid metabolism is how cells and tissues break down and build fats for energy, membranes and signalling. It spans cholesterol and lipoprotein handling, fatty acid uptake and oxidation, and the enzymes that process lipids.
Profiling these together helps dissect metabolic health, disease models and drug effects.
Yes. The HDL and LDL/VLDL assay kits allow separation and quantitation of the lipoprotein fractions.
It measures the rate at which cells or tissues oxidise fatty acids for energy, a key read-out in metabolism, mitochondrial function and metabolic disease research.
Both formats are available across the range. The product name states the read-out.
