Application

The Cytochrome c Oxidase Assay Kit uses an optimized colorimetric assay based on observation of the decrease in absorbance of ferrocytochrome c measured at 550 nm, which is caused by its oxidation to ferricytochrome c by cytochrome c oxidase.[1] This kit is suitable for the detection of mitochondrial outer membrane integrity/mitochondrial stress and for the detection of mitochondria in subcellular fractions.[2]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cytochrome c oxidase [EC 1.9.3.1] is located on the inner mitochondrial membrane dividing the mitochondrial matrix from the intermembrane space, and has traditionally been used as a marker for this membrane. It is also located in the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria. Cytochrome c oxidase provides energy for the cell by coupling electron transport through the cytochrome chain with the process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Features and Benefits

  • Simple, optimized protocol - Obtain reproducible results without special training needs
  • Useful for determining cytochrome c activity from any mitchondrial source - The enzyme is present in all mitochondria regardless of species
  • Useful for detecting the presence of mitochondria in subcellular fraction - Save time and increase confidence in the quality of organelle preparations
  • May be used in conjunction with the MITOISO1 Mitochondrial Isolation Kit - Standardized mitochondrial preparation and analysis ensures reproducibility
  • Use to analyze the intactness of mitochondrial membranes
  • Simple colorimetric measurement of solution

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
