  • Cellular Biology
  • Animal Research

Background:

  • Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is crucial for cellular energy.
  • Accurate measurement of hepatic ATP is vital for understanding metabolic states.
  • Existing methods for ATP extraction can be complex or time-consuming.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and present a simple, one-step method for simultaneous fixation and ATP extraction from rat liver samples.
  • To validate the efficacy of this method for quantifying hepatic ATP content.

Main Methods:

  • A single-step protocol was employed for the fixation and extraction of ATP.
  • Rat liver samples were utilized to test the described procedure.

Main Results:

  • The described method successfully achieved both fixation and ATP extraction in one step.
  • The results indicate suitability for accurate determination of hepatic ATP levels.

Conclusions:

  • The presented one-step method is a simple and effective technique for hepatic ATP analysis.
  • Its ease of use makes it a preferred choice for researchers studying liver energy metabolism.
