| Description | High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL), as an anti-atherogenic lipoprotein, transports cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver for metabolism, where it is converted into bile acids or directly excreted from the intestine via bile. This process reduces cholesterol deposition on the arterial wall. High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL), as an anti-atherogenic lipoprotein, transports cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver for metabolism, where it is converted into bile acids or directly excreted from the intestine via bile. This process reduces cholesterol deposition on the arterial wall. HDL exerts its anti-atherosclerotic effects through various mechanisms, including promoting reverse cholesterol transport, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, inhibiting thrombus formation, and improving endothelial cell function.Detection Principle: Cholesterol esterase (CHER) and cholesterol oxidase (CHOD) are chemically modified and used in conjunction with dextran sulfate and magnesium ions (or other compounds like sulfated cyclodextrin complexes) to reduce their enzymatic reactivity towards LDL, VLDL, and chylomicrons, making them selectively interact with HDL-cholesterol. Based on this principle, in the first reaction step, LDL, VLDL, and chylomicrons are complexed with reagents like dextran sulfate. In the second reaction step, using the chemically modified CHER and CHOD, HDL-cholesterol is directly measured without the need to separate other lipoproteins. Specifically, the chemically modified CHER catalyzes the hydrolysis of cholesterol esters to generate Free Cholesterol (FC). FC is then oxidized by CHOD to produce 4-cholestenone and hydrogen peroxide. Subsequently, hydrogen peroxide reacts with 4-aminoantipyrine and phenol under the catalysis of peroxidase (POD) to generate a red quinoneimine compound, which has a characteristic absorption peak at 546 nm. The HDL-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.Reagent 31EA2-8℃.

Add 0.1 mL of distilled water to dissolve. Use within one week. The prepared concentration is as indicated on the label.User-Prepared Instruments and Reagents:Mortar (Homogenizer), balance, ice box (ice maker), benchtop centrifuge, adjustable micropipettes, water bath (oven, incubator, metal bath), 96-well plate, centrifuge tubes, microplate reader, distilled water (deionized water or ultrapure water are acceptable), ethanol.Experimental ProcedureIt is recommended to first perform a preliminary test using 1-3 samples with expected significant differences (e.g., different types or groups) to familiarize yourself with the procedure and to determine or adjust sample concentrations based on the preliminary results, preventing unnecessary waste of samples or reagents.1. 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 Serum SamplesFor routine, clear serum samples, add reagents directly according to the assay table and proceed with detection. If the serum sample has a high protein content, adding reagents as per the table may cause turbidity. In this case, first take 200 µL of serum + 200 µL of ethanol, mix well by inverting several times, centrifuge at 8,000 rpm, 4°C or room temperature for 5 minutes, and then collect the supernatant for assay.1.4 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. Collect the supernatant and keep it on ice for assay.*Note: If increasing the sample amount, maintain a bacteria/cell count (10⁴) to ethanol volume (mL) ratio between 500:1 and 1000:1.*2.

Calculate ΔA = A₂ - A₁ for each tube.Note:(1) If the A₂ value for the Test Tube is greater than 1, dilute the sample with ethanol. The dilution factor (D) must be substituted into the calculation formula.(2) If ΔA for the Test Tube is lower than ΔA for the Blank Tube, consider increasing the sample volume V₁ (e.g., increase the sample volume in the Test Tube and the water volume in the Blank Tube to 5 µL or more, keeping Reagents 1 and 2 volumes unchanged; for the Standard Tube, keep at 2.5 µL and add 2.5 µL distilled water to make up volume) or increasing the sample weight W (e.g., to 0.2 g or more). The changed V₁ or W must then be substituted into the calculation formula.3.

This product can process up to 300 mg of fecal samples and purify to obtain mainly 20-30 kb DNA fragments. The purification process does not require toxic solvents such as phenol or chloroform, and does not require ethanol precipitation. High purity DNA can be obtained within one hour. This reagent kit adopts a unique buffering system to efficiently bind DNA from the lysis solution to the adsorption column. At the same time, protein impurities and other organic compounds that inhibit downstream reactions in feces can flow through the membrane. Inhibitors of PCR and enzyme reactions, as well as residual impurities, can be effectively removed through two washing steps. Finally, high-purity DNA can be obtained by washing with low salt buffer or water. The purified DNA can be directly used for downstream experiments such as enzyme digestion, PCR, Real Time PCR, library construction, Southern Blot, and molecular labeling.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment1. Samples should avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, otherwise it may result in smaller extracted DNA fragments and a decrease in extraction volume.2.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and GW2 according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.3.

The pH value of the eluent has a significant impact on the elution efficiency. If water is used as the eluent, its pH value should be ensured to be between 7.0-8.5 (NaOH can be used to adjust the pH value of the water to this range). When the pH value is below 7.0, the elution efficiency will be reduced2) Incubating at room temperature for 5 minutes before centrifugation can increase yield.3) Use an additional 50-100 µ Further washing with buffer GE or sterilized water can increase yield.4) If you want to increase the final concentration of DNA, you can add the DNA eluent obtained in step 11 back onto the adsorption membrane and repeat step 11; It is possible to increase the final concentration of DNA, but it may reduce the total yield.
