  • Scientific Description
    ISOCITRATE (ISOCITRIC ACID) is a substrate in the citric acid (TCA) cycle. Isocitrate is formed by the isomerization of citrate catalyzed by the enzyme aconitase. Isocitrate is oxidized by isocitrate dehydrogenase producing Alpha-ketoglutarate and generating NADPH. Isocitrate is commonly found in many fruits and vegetables and their processed products. Industrially, isocitrate is used as a marker to identify the quality and purity of fruit juices. This isocitrate assay measures the NADPH generated from the oxidation of isocitrate. The NADPH reduces a probe into a highly fluorescent product. The fluorescence intensity of this product, measured at lambda ex/em = 530/585 nm, is proportional to the isocitrate concentration in the sample.
