CheKine™ Micro Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL) Activity Assay Kit

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an enzyme synthesized by adipocytes, cardiomyocytes, skeletal muscle cells, mammary cells, macrophages and other parenchymal cells. LPL catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglyceride to fatty acids and monophosphate for tissue oxidation for energy supply and storage. Hydrolysis of 4-nitrobenzene palmitate by LPL yields 4-nitrophenol with a characteristic absorption peak at 400 nm.
