Human Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) ELISA Kit

Coenzyme Q10 is a lipophilic quinone that plays an important role in cellular energy production within the mitochondrial electron transport chain. As a key component of oxidative phosphorylation, CoQ10 supports ATP synthesis and serves as a potent antioxidant, protecting cellular membranes from oxidative damage. This ubiquinone derivative is naturally synthesized in human tissues. Concentrations decline with age and in various pathological conditions, making it an important biomarker for metabolic health and mitochondrial function research.

The Human Coenzyme Q10 ELISA Kit uses a competitive quantitative assay principle to measure CoQ10 levels in serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates. The kit offers a detection range of 3.12 ng/mL to 50 ng/mL with a sensitivity of 1.56 ng/mL, requiring 50-100 μL sample volumes for analysis. Detection occurs at 450 nm wavelength. Assay completion takes 1-5 hours, providing researchers with a reliable tool for CoQ10 quantification in human samples.
