Description
ATP is the primary energy currency of living systems. Virtually all energy dependent processes utilize the chemical energy stored in the phosphate bond of ATP. ATP is formed exclusively in mitochondria and a variety of genetic diseases affect ATP formation in the mitochondria. There are many commercially available ATP assays which detect femtomoles or less of ATP using luminescence, but these kits require specialized instrumentation and utilize luciferase which can be difficult to maintain in active form. The ATP Assay kit is designed to be a robust, simple method that determines ATP concentration by phosphorylating glycerol (Glycero-6 phosphate) resulting in a colorimetric (OD = 570 nm) or fluorometric (Ex/Em = 535/590 nm) product proportional to the amount of ATP present.
