β-Hydroxybutyrate (Ketone Body) Colorimetric Assay Kit

With this kit, β-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase catalyzes the oxidative dehydrogenation of β-HB. Meanwhile, NAD+ is reduced to NADH, which under the action of hydrogen transmitter, transfers electrons to WST-8 to produce a yellow product. The content of β-HB can be calculated by measuring the change of absorbance value at 450 nm. This kit is useful for researchers studying ketone body metabolism and diabetes.
