Summary

Automatic Translation

Fatty acid β-oxidation is an essential metabolic pathway responsible for generating energy in many different cell types, including hepatocytes. Here, we describe a method to measure fatty acid β-oxidation in freshly isolated primary hepatocytes using 14C-labeled palmitic acid.
