General description

Succinate (succinic acid) is a citric acid cycle intermediate and functions in the transport of electrons to the mitochondrial electron transport chain. It also functions in innate immune signaling and induces IL-1β production during inflammation. Succinates have been often used for the treatment of hypertension. Succinate measurements can be useful for studying its metabolic, immunological, and therapeutic activities.

Application

Succinate Colorimetric Assay Kit has been used to measure the concentration of succinate.

Suitability

Suitable for the detection of succinate in a variety of samples such as cell and tissue culture supernatants and in liquid samples such as wine.

Principle

The Succinate Colorimetric Assay Kit is a highly sensitive assay for determining succinate levels (ranging from 2-10 nmole/well) in a variety of samples. Succinate concentration is determined by a coupled enzyme reaction, which results in a colorimetric (450 nm) product proportional to the succinate present.

Previous studies showed that human cell line HEK293 lacking mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) exhibited decreased succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity, and mice lacking MnSOD displayed significant reductions in SDH and aconitase activities. Since MnSOD has significant effects on SDH activity, and
