A hydrazine coupled cycling assay validates the decrease in redox ratio under starvation in Drosophila.
A commonly used enzymatic recycling assay for pyridine nucleotides has been adapted to directly measure the NAD(+)/NADH redox ratio in Drosophila melanogaster. This method is also suitable for quantification of NADP(+) and NADPH. The addition of a coupling reaction removing acetaldehyde produced fro...
