Non esterified free fatty acids

Manufactured by Fujifilm

Non-esterified free fatty acids are a type of lab equipment used to measure the concentration of unbound fatty acids in biological samples. This product provides a quantitative assessment of the free fatty acids present, which can be used as a indicator of various metabolic processes.

Colorimetric Assays for Hepatocyte Lipid Metabolism

After primary hepatocytes were treated with OA, OA+BBR and OA+ROT for 24 h, we collected the supernatant of each group and assessed the non-esterified free fatty acids (Wako). And the results were normalized to the NEFA amounts of OA-treated blank well (cell free) to evaluate the fatty acid uptake with a colorimetric assay.
For cellular triglyceride assay, we incubated primary hepatocytes with different treatment for 24 h, followed by lysing the cells in 5 % NP-40. The samples were heated to 95 °C for 5 min and cooled down to room temperature. After being centrifuged, the collected supernatant was used to determine the triglyceride level (BioVision).

Comprehensive Blood Biomarker Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood glucose was determined by whole blood obtained by tail vein prick and measured using a glucometer (OneTouch). For other tests, whole blood was harvested from mice by retro-orbital bleeding, and plasma was isolated using lithium heparin coated plasma separator tubes (BD). Plasma Troponin-I concentration (Life Diagnostics), alanine aminotransferase activity (Cayman Chemical), β-hydroxybutyrate (Cayman Chemical), Adiponectin (Abcam), nonesterified free fatty acids (Wako Diagnostics), FGF21 (R&D Systems and BioVendor), corticosterone (Enzo), thyroid-stimulating hormone, free T4 (LSBio), and lipase and amylase activity (Sigma-Aldrich) were assayed using kits according to manufacturers’ protocols. Venous blood gas and lactate levels were measured using the i-STAT1 Handheld Analyzer (Abaxis; cartridges CG4+ and CG8+). Plasma creatinine was assayed using HPLC at the George M. O’Brien Kidney Center at Yale.

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.
