Product overview
Glycolysis Assay [Extracellular Acidification] (ab197244) is an easy mix-and-measure, 96 well fluorescence plate reader-based approach for the analysis of extracellular acidification (ECA/ECAR). As lactate production is the main contributor to this acidification, ab197244 is a convenient and informative measure of cellular glycolytic flux. Such measurements offer an important insight into the central role played by altered glycolytic activity in a wide array of physiological and pathophysiological processes, including cellular adaptation to hypoxia and ischemia, and the development and progression of tumorigenesis.
The performance of Glycolysis Assay facilitates sensitive robust microtiter-plate based measurements, thereby overcoming many of the problems associated with the more cumbersome potentiometric pH approach. Rates of extracellular acidification are calculated from changes in fluorescence signal over time and, as the measurement is non-destructive and fully reversible (pH-sensitive reagent is not consumed), measurement of time-courses and multiple drug treatments are possible.

Simultaneous quantification of mitochondrial respiration and glycolytic flux
Cellular Energy Flux for HepG2 cells (seeded at 65,000 per well), treated with a combination of drug compounds modulating the ETC (Antimycin A [1 µM] and FCCP [2.5 µM]), shown as a percentage relative to untreated control cells. Comparative measurements were taken with Extracellular Oxygen Consumption Assay (ab197243) (white column) and Glycolysis Assay [Extracellular acidification] (ab197244) (black column) show the shift between mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis and the cellular control of energy (ATP; measured 1h post-treatment using Luminescent ATP Detection Assay kit (ab113849) (striped column)).
