Cytochrome c from equine heart

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Germany

Cytochrome c from equine heart is a redox-active protein that functions as an essential component of the electron transport chain in mitochondria. It plays a crucial role in the process of cellular respiration, facilitating the transfer of electrons between Complex III and Complex IV of the respiratory chain. This product is purified from the heart tissue of horses and is commonly used in biochemical research and assays related to electron transport and energy metabolism.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
