| Description | Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) in plasma is the main carrier of endogenous cholesterol. It is degraded and metabolized by binding to the LDL receptor (LDL-R) on cell membranes and serves as the primary vehicle for transporting cholesterol to peripheral tissues. However, when LDL, especially oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) in plasma is the main carrier of endogenous cholesterol. It is degraded and metabolized by binding to the LDL receptor (LDL-R) on cell membranes and serves as the primary vehicle for transporting cholesterol to peripheral tissues. However, when LDL, especially oxidized LDL (OX-LDL), is present in excess, the cholesterol it carries accumulates in the arterial walls, increasing the risk of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is the pathological basis and risk factor for the majority of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.Detection Principle: In a cholesterol assay system containing cholesterol esterase (CHER) and cholesterol oxidase (CHOD), specific surfactants are added to selectively solubilize LDL-C for the determination of LDL-cholesterol. Other lipoproteins (HDL, VLDL, chylomicrons) do not react due to inhibition by the surfactants and sugar compounds, remaining in the form of lipoproteins in the reaction mixture. Based on this principle, LDL-cholesterol can be measured directly. Subsequently, esterase catalyzes the hydrolysis of cholesterol esters to generate Free Cholesterol (FC). FC is oxidized by cholesterol oxidase to produce 4-cholestenone and hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide then reacts with 4-aminoantipyrine and other components to produce a red quinoneimine compound, which has a characteristic absorption peak at 546 nm. The LDL-C content is determined by measuring the absorbance at 546 nm.Component96TStorageReagent 118 mL2-8℃. Store in the dark.Reagent 26 mL2-8℃. Store in the dark.Standard1EA2-8℃.

Sample Extraction1.1 Tissue SamplesWeigh approximately 0.1 g of tissue sample and place it in a mortar. Add 1 mL of ethanol and homogenize in an ice bath. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm, 4°C or room temperature for 10 minutes. Collect the supernatant for assay.Note: If increasing the sample amount, maintain a tissue mass (g) to ethanol volume (mL) ratio between 1:5 and 1:10.1.2 Liquid SamplesAssay clear liquid samples directly. If turbid, centrifuge and use the supernatant for assay.1.3 Bacterial/Cell SamplesCollect bacteria or cells into a centrifuge tube, centrifuge, and discard the supernatant. Add 1 mL of ethanol per approximately 5 million bacteria/cells. Disrupt the bacteria or cells by sonication in an ice bath (power 200W, pulse 3s on, 10s off, repeat 30 times). Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm, 4°C for 10 minutes.

Add 5ml Proteinase K Storage Buffer to Proteinase K to dissolve it, and storeit at -20℃. Do not leave the prepared Proteinase K at room temperature for a longtime, and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to avoid affecting its activity.2. Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this may resultin smaller DNA fragments and a decrease in the amount of extracted DNA. 3.This kit can extract up to 1-5 ml of whole blood samples, if you need to extracta large number of blood samples, please use the blood genome non-column extractionkit. 4. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to theinstructions on the label of the reagent bottle before first use.5. Please check Buffer GL for crystallization or precipitation before use, if thereis any crystallization or precipitation, please put it in 56℃water bath to re-dissolve.6. If the downstream experiments are sensitive to RNA contamination, 4µl of DNaseFree RNase A (100mg/ml) can be added, RNase A is not provided in the kit, and canbe ordered separately from our company if needed.7. The Buffer RCL in the kit cannot be used further after turbidity.procedure1. Add 1-5 ml of blood sample to a centrifuge tube (supplied) and add 3 times thevolume of Buffer RCL and gently vortex or invert to mix.2. Centrifuge at 3000 rpm (~900 x g) for 10 minutes and carefully aspirate thesupernatant.3. Add 400 µl Buffer GR to the precipitate and resuspend the precipitate. Note: If the downstream assay is sensitive to RNA, add 4 µl of RNase A (100 mg/ml)solution, shake for 15 seconds, and leave at room temperature for 5 minutes.4. For 1-2 ml blood sample extraction, add 40µl Proteinase K to the above solutionand mix well; for 2-5 ml blood sample extraction, add 100µl Proteinase K to theabove solution and mix well.5. Add 400 µl of Buffer GL, mix upside down 15 times, and vigorously vortex andshake for at least 1 minute. Note: Do not add Proteinase K directly to Buffer GL.6. Incubate at 70°C for 10 minutes, during which time mixing was inverted severaltimes.Note: 1) If the solution is not completely clear, add appropriate amount of Proteinase K and incubate. Extend the incubation time until the solution is completely clear. 2) The yield of DNA has been maximized by 10 minutes of incubation, and continuedprolongation of the incubation time has no effect on DNA yield or purity.7. Add 400 µl of anhydrous ethanol and mix upside down 10 times. Centrifuge brieflyto concentrate the liquid on the walls and cap to the bottom of the tube.8. Add all of the solution obtained in the previous step to the Spin Columns DL inthe collection tube. If the solution cannot be added all at once, transfer it severaltimes. centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquidfrom the collection tube, and put the column back into the collection tube.9. Add 500 µl of Buffer GW1 to the adsorption column (check that anhydrous ethanolis added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquidin the collection tube, and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Note: It is recommended that step 9 be repeated if the sample being extracted isthe blood genome of a species such as mice or monkeys from which hemoglobin isdifficult to remove.10. Add 500 µl Buffer GW2 to the adsorption column (check that anhydrous ethanolis added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquidin the collection tube, and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Note: Step 10 can be repeated if further DNA purity is required.11. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes and pour off the waste liquid in thecollection tube. Leave the adsorption column at room temperature for several minutesto dry thoroughly. Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorptioncolumn, which can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR,etc.)12. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube, add 50-200 µl of BufferGE or sterilized water to the middle of the adsorption column overhanging the column,leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute,collect the DNA solution, and store the DNA at -20℃.Note: 1) If the downstream experiment is sensitive to pH or EDTA, you can use sterilized water for elution. The pH of the eluent has a great influence on theelution efficiency, if water is used as the eluent should ensure that its pH is7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH of the water to this range), and the elutionefficiency is not high when the pH is lower than 7.0.2) Incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes prior to centrifugation increasesyield.3) Re-elution with an additional 50-200 µl Buffer GE or sterilized water can increase the yield.4) If the final concentration of DNA is to be increased, the DNA eluate obtainedin step 12 can be re-spiked onto the adsorbent membrane and centrifuged at 12,000rpm. 1min; if the elution volume is less than 200µl, the final concentration of DNA canbe increased, but the total yield may be reduced. If the amount of DNA is less than1 µg, elution with 50 µl Buffer GE or sterilized water is recommended.5) Because DNA preserved in water is subject to acidic hydrolysis, for long-termstorage, it is recommended that it be eluted with Buffer GE and stored at -20℃...
