N-Hydroxysuccinimide CAS NO.6066-82-6

Acetoxyacetic acid, also called oxaloacetic acid, acetoacetic acid, is the product of fat catabolism. It is produced in the mitochondria of the liver by condensation and cleavage of acetyl-CoA. Under normal circumstances, it is thoroughly oxidized through the tricarboxylic acid cycle. However, when the metabolism of fat and sugar is disturbed, such as diabetes, it cannot be completely oxidized, and it accumulates in the body as one of the components of the ketone body, which can cause acidosis. It can be used to distinguish and monitor the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic ketosis patients.
