General description
Ketone bodies, 3-hydroxybutyric acid (BOH) and acetoacetic acid (AcAc), are produced in the liver primarily from oxidation of fatty acids, and are normally present at low concentrations in urine and blood. Increased ketone concentrations in the blood may lead to metabolic acidosis, which has been associated with diabetes, childhood hypoglycemia, growth hormone deficiency, alcohol or salicylate intoxication, and inborn errors of metabolism.
Application
Ketone Body Assay has been used to measure the release of ketone bodies in the human liver cancer cell line HepG2 culture medium.
Features and Benefits
Compatible with high-throughput handling systems
Suitability
Suitable for the detection of ketone bodies (acetoacetic acid and 3-hydroxybutyric acid) in serum, plasma, urine, and other biological samples.
Principle
In this kit, AcAc and BOH levels are determined using an enzymatic assay based on 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase catalyzed reactions, in which the change in NADH absorbance measured at 340 nm is directly related to either the AcAc and BOH concentrations.
Storage Class
10 - Combustible liquids
