Enzymological determination of free carnitine concentrations in rat tissues
Purified carnitine acetyltransferase was employed to catalyze the reaction:Carnitine+acetylCoA⇌acetylcarnitine+CoA. In the presence of a known excess of acetyl CoA, free CoA released was determined simultaneously in a coupled spectrophotometric assay. CoA formed was shown to be directly related to c...
