Simultaneously, tissues like the liver and Triglycerides (TG), also known as triacylglycerols, are fat molecules formed from three long-chain fatty acids and glycerol. They are the most abundant lipids in the human body. Most tissues can utilize the breakdown products of triglycerides for energy. Simultaneously, tissues like the liver and adipose tissue can synthesize triglycerides. The enzymatic method for measuring TG is commonly used in biochemical assays due to its characteristics: 1. High sensitivity, accuracy, and precision; 2. Use of mild reaction conditions; 3. Simple operation; 4. Suitable for semi-automatic biochemical analyzers.Detection Principle: Triglycerides are hydrolyzed by lipoprotein lipase (LPL) into glycerol and free fatty acids. Glycerol is then phosphorylated by glycerol kinase (GK) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to form glycerol-3-phosphate (G-3-P). G-3-P is subsequently oxidized by glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (GPO), producing hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide, in the presence of peroxidase (POD), 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP), and phenol (collectively known as PAP), reacts to form a red-colored quinoneimine dye (Trinder reaction). The quinoneimine dye has a maximum absorption at 510 nm. The absorbance is directly proportional to the triglyceride concentration in the sample and can be measured using a microplate reader between 500-520 nm.This kit is used for the quantitative determination of triglyceride content in serum, cells, tissues, and other samples from humans or animals. This kit is intended for research use only and is not suitable for clinical diagnosis or other purposes.Component100TStorageBuffer Solution24 mL2-8℃. Store in the dark.Enzyme Reagent6 mL2-8℃.

Sample Preparation1.1 Serum, Plasma, Cerebrospinal Fluid SamplesSerum or plasma separated from the test sample should not be hemolyzed. Assay directly. If the concentration exceeds the linear range, dilute with physiological saline before assaying.1.2 Cell Samples(1) Take an appropriate amount of cells (generally recommended >10⁶), centrifuge at 1000 g for 10 min, discard the supernatant, keep the pellet.(2) Wash the pellet 1-2 times with PBS or physiological saline, centrifuge at 1000 g for 10 min, discard the supernatant, keep the pellet.(3) Add 200-300 µL of PBS or physiological saline to homogenize. Sonicate the cells on ice (power 300W, pulse 3-5s, interval 30s, repeat 3-5 times). Alternatively, homogenize manually. Do not centrifuge the prepared homogenate. Alternatively, lyse with 1-2% Triton X-100 on ice for 30-60 min. Do not centrifuge the prepared lysate.1.3 Tissue SamplesAccurately weigh an appropriate amount of tissue sample. Add physiological saline or PBS at a mass (g) to volume (mL) ratio of 1:9. Homogenize manually or mechanically on ice. Centrifuge at 2500-3000 g for 10 min. Collect the supernatant for assay.2.

Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles for the low-temperature reagents mentioned above to prevent inactivation or decreased efficiency.2. The GPO-PAP Working Solution should be prepared immediately before use and is not suitable for long-term storage at 4°C.3. This method can be directly used to detect TG content in cerebrospinal fluid but cannot directly detect TG in urine, as untreated urine contains reducing substances that interfere with the peroxidase reaction.4. If test samples cannot be assayed immediately, they should be stored at 2-8°C and are stable for 3 days.5. The linear range of this method is up to 9.0 mmol/L. If the sample TG concentration is too high, results may be falsely low. Dilute the sample with physiological saline and re-assay, multiplying the result by the dilution factor.6. The working reagent should be protected from contamination by substances like glucose and cholesterol.7. The reagent is susceptible to oxidation by air, turning red. A blank measurement is necessary.8. For your safety and health, please wear a lab coat and disposable gloves during operation.9.Use the reagents as soon as possible after opening to prevent affecting subsequent experimental results...

Purpose of use: This reagent kit is used to determine the content of lactose in serum, plasma, and related liquid samples.Experimental principle:This kit applies enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to determine the level of lactose in the sample. Purified lactose antibodies were coated on a microplate to produce solid-phase antibodies. Lactose was added to the microplate of the coated monoclonal antibody, along with HRP labeled lactose antigens, to compete for binding. After thorough washing, the substrate TMB was added for colorimetry. The depth of sample color is negatively correlated with the content of lactose in the sample. Measure the absorbance (OD value) at a wavelength of 450nm using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader, and calculate the content of lactose in the sample through a standard curve.Kit composition:130times concentrated washing solution20ml×1 bottle8.1Standard S1（80µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle2Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay6ml×1 bottle8.2Standard S2（40µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle3Enzyme labeling coated plate96 holes x 1 pieces8.3Standard S3（20µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle4Color reagent A solution6ml×1 bottle8.4Standard S4（10µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle5Color developer B solution6ml×1 bottle8.5Standard S5（5µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle6Stop solution6ml×1 bottle9Instructions1 copy7Sample Diluent6ml×1 bottle10Microplate Sealers2 sheetsSpecimen requirements:1. Specimen processing:(1) After collecting the water sample, it is repeatedly freeze-thawed three times at -20 ℃, and then filtered through glass fiber for future reference(2) The tissue samples should be extracted using butanol: methanol: water (5:25:70 V: V: V), or extracted according to relevant literature. The experiment should be conducted as soon as possible after extraction. If the experiment cannot be conducted immediately, the specimen can be stored at -20 ℃ for future reference2. Samples containing NaN3 cannot be detected as NaN3 inhibits the activity of horseradish peroxidase (HRP).Operation steps:1. Sample addition: Set up standard wells, blank wells (blank control wells do not include samples and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reagents, the other steps are the same), and sample wells to be tested. Add 50 microliters to the standard well on the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) plate, and first add 40 diluents to the sample well to be tested µ l. Then add 10 more samples to be tested µ L (The final dilution of the sample is 5 times). Add the sample to the bottom of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) plate well, avoiding touching the well wall as much as possible. Gently shake and mix well.2. Enzyme addition: Add 50 enzyme labeled reagents to each well µ l. Excluding blank holes.3. Warm incubation: Seal the plate with a sealing film and incubate at 37 ℃ for 60 minutes.4. Solution preparation: Dilute 30 times the concentrated washing solution with distilled water and set aside for later use5. Washing: Carefully remove the sealing film, discard the liquid, shake dry, fill each well with washing solution, let it stand for 30 seconds, then discard. Repeat this process 5 times and pat dry.6. Color development: Add color development agent A50 to each well first µ l. Add color developer B50 again µ l. Gently shake and mix well, and develop color at 37 ℃ in the dark for 15 minutes7. Termination: Add 50% termination fluid to each hole µ l. Terminate the reaction (at this point, the blue color immediately turns yellow).8. Measurement: Zero the blank hole and sequentially measure the absorbance (OD value) of each hole at a wavelength of 450nm. The measurement should be conducted within 15 minutes after adding the termination solution.Calculation:Draw a standard curve on a coordinate paper with the concentration of the standard substance as the x-axis and the OD value as the y-axis. Based on the OD value of the sample, determine the corresponding concentration from the standard curve; Multiply it by the dilution factor; Alternatively, a linear regression equation can be used to calculate the standard curve using the concentration and OD value of the standard substance. The OD value of the sample can be substituted into the equation to calculate the sample concentration, which is then multiplied by the dilution factor to obtain the actual concentration of the sample.Notes:1. The kit should be balanced at room temperature for 15-30 minutes before use when taken out from the cold storage environment. If the enzyme coated plate is not used up after opening, the Flat noodles should be stored in a sealed bag.2. Concentrated detergent may precipitate crystals. When diluted, it can be heated in a water bath to aid in dissolution. Washing does not affect the results.3. A sampler should be used for each step of sample addition, and its accuracy should be regularly calibrated to avoid experimental errors. It is best to control the sample addition time within 5 minutes. If there are a large number of specimens, it is recommended to use a firing gun for sample addition.4. Please make a standard curve at the same time as each measurement, preferably with a re hole. If the content of the substance to be tested in the sample is too high (the OD value of the sample is greater than the OD value of the first well of the standard well), please dilute the sample diluent by a certain multiple (n times) before measurement. When calculating, please multiply the total dilution multiple (x n x 5).5. The sealing film is only for one-time use to avoid cross contamination.6. Please store the substrate in dark.7. Strictly follow the instructions and determine the test results based on the reading of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader8. All samples, washing liquids, and various waste should be treated as infectious substances.9.

Self-contained reagents: Lysozyme, β-mercaptoethanol, anhydrous ethanol (freshlyopened or for RNA extraction). Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes 1. To prevent RNase contamination, attention should be paid to the following aspects:1) Use RNase-free plastics and tips to avoid cross-contamination. 2) RNase-free water should be used to prepare the solution. 3) Operators wear disposable masks and gloves, and change gloves diligently duringthe experiment. 2. Add β-mercaptoethanol to Buffer RL before use to reach a final concentrationof 1%, e.g., add 10 µl of β-mercaptoethanol to 1 ml of Buffer RL. Buffer RL withβ-mercaptoethanol can be stored at 4℃ for 1 month, if precipitation occurs, pleaseheat to dissolve and use.3. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer RW2 before first use according tothe instructions on the reagent bottle label. 4. All centrifugation steps are carried out at room temperature if not otherwisespecified, and all steps should be performed quickly. Procedure 1. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) at 4°C for 2 minutes to collect theorganisms (maximum volume of organisms should not exceed 1 x 109) and carefullyremove all supernatants. Note: Supernatants that leave residues can interfere with the subsequent digestionprocess. 2. Thoroughly resuspend the organisms with 100 µl of TE buffer containing Lysozymeand incubate at room temperature. The specific formulation and incubation time areas follows:/The final concentration of Lysozyme in TE bufferincubation timeG-germ400µg/ml3-5minG+germ3mg/ml5-10min 3. Add 350 µl of Buffer RL (check that β-mercaptoethanol has been added beforeuse), vortex and shake to mix (insoluble precipitate may appear in this step), addall of the solution and the precipitate to the filter columns (Spin Columns FL) thathave been loaded into the collection tubes, and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2minutes. 4. Add 250 µl of anhydrous ethanol to the filtrate obtained in the previous stepand mix well (a precipitate may appear at this point). Transfer the resulting solution together with the precipitate to a Spin Columns RM packed in a collectiontube, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, discard the waste solution and put thecolumn back into the collection tube.5. Add 350 µl Buffer RW1 to the adsorbent column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for1min, discard the waste liquid and put the adsorbent column back into the collectiontube.6. Preparation of DNase I mixture: Take 52µl of RNase-Free Water, add 8µl of 10×Reaction Buffer and 20µl of DNase I (1U/µl) to it, mix well, and make a finalvolume of 80µl of reaction solution.7. Add 80µl of DNase I mixture directly to the adsorption column and incubate at20-30°C for 15 minutes.8. Add 350 µl Buffer RW1 to the adsorbent column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for1min, discard the waste liquid and put the adsorbent column back into the collectiontube.9. Add 500 µl of Buffer RW2 to the column (check that anhydrous ethanol is addedbefore use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, and discard the waste solution.10. Repeat step 9.11. Place the adsorbent column back into the collection tube and centrifuge at 12,000rpm for 2 minutes. Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorptioncolumn; ethanol residue can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (zymography, PCR, etc.).12. Load the adsorption column into a new RNase-Free collection tube, add 30-50 µl of RNase-Free Water to the middle of the adsorption membrane, leave it at roomtemperature for 1 minute, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, collect the RNAsolution, and store the RNA at -70°C to prevent degradation. Note: 1) The volume of RNase-Free Water should not be less than 30 µl, too smallvolume affects the recovery rate. 2) If you want to increase the RNA yield, repeat step 12 with 30-50 µl of freshRNase-Free Water. If the RNA concentration is to be increased, the resulting solution can be reintroduced into the adsorption column and step 12 repeated... Read More |
