1h 00mProduct overview
ATP Assay Kit (Colorimetric/Fluorometric) (ab83355) use a robust, simple method; the ATP assay protocol relies on the phosphorylation of glycerol to generate a product that is easily quantified by colorimetric (ODmax = 570 nm) or fluorometric (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm) methods.
This kit can detect as low as 1 µM of ATP in various samples.
ATP assay protocol summary:
- add samples (deproteinized) and standards to wells
- add reaction mix and incubate for 30 min at room temp
- analyze with microplate readerChinese protocol available. See protocols section below.
If you require a more sensitive product, we recommend Luminescent ATP Detection Assay Kit (ab113849), which can detect as low as 1 pM of ATP.

ATP levels in Pancreatic Islet Image courtesy of Mrs. Fotini Mouth
Ab83355 was used to determin ATP levels in rat pancreas islets as an ischemic marker to predict transplantation outcomes. We extracted ATP from fresh pancreas that have undergo different time of cold ischemia : 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10h and in situ. ATP were extracted in Perchloric acid (PCA-2M) and grind using a Polytron. PCA were removed using potassium hydroxide (KOH – 2M) and pH was adjust around 7-8. Samples were conserved at -80°C before utilization.
