Product Description: Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD) (CAS: 84366-81-4)
Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD) is an adenine-containing redox cofactor. It plays a vital role as an electron transporter in cellular respiration and energy production. Known as a flavin cofactor, FAD is involved in critical processes like the Krebs cycle and beta-oxidation. Additionally, it serves as a fluorophore, used to study unstained eosinophils, which show autofluorescence unlike other leucocytes.
Key Features:
- Redox Cofactor: Transports electrons in key metabolic pathways.
- Fluorescent Properties: Used for studying eosinophils through autofluorescence.
- Metabolic Functions: Supports energy production in the Krebs cycle and beta-oxidation.
Applications:
- Biochemical Research: Perfect for studying redox reactions and energy metabolism.
- Fluorescence Studies: Ideal for investigating eosinophil autofluorescence in microscopy.
- Enzyme Analysis: Helps examine FAD-dependent enzymes in metabolic studies.
Advantages:
- Essential Electron Transporter: Drives energy production in cells.
- Highly Versatile: Useful in both metabolic and fluorescence research.
- Reagent Grade: Available for research purposes; GMP-grade inquiries are also accepted.
