78358-9
LaboratoryAcyl CoA dehydrogenases [Enzymatic activity/mass] in Fibroblast by [9,10-3H] palmitate substrate
Definition
Fatty acid oxidation in medium- or long-chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase deficiencies can be measured by quantifying the release of 3H2O from (9,10-3H) palmitate (this term) and myristate [LOINC: 78360-5] substrates added to cultured fibroblast. [PMID: 2109149] Fatty acid (i.e. palmitate or myristate) oxidation rates by fibroblasts are expressed as nanomole of 3H fatty acid (3H FA) oxidized per hour per milligram of cell protein (nmol 3H FA/h/mg protein).[PMID: 12840153]
