| Description | This kit enables rapid and convenient detection of endogenous alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in cell or tissue lysates, serum, plasma, urine, and other sample types. Alkaline phosphatase, also known as alkaline phosphomonoesterase, catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate esters under alkaline This kit enables rapid and convenient detection of endogenous alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in cell or tissue lysates, serum, plasma, urine, and other sample types. Alkaline phosphatase, also known as alkaline phosphomonoesterase, catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate esters under alkaline conditions. Major ALP isozymes include intestinal, tissue-nonspecific, and placental alkaline phosphatases. With the exception of placental ALP, most isozymes are heat-labile. Para-Nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) is a widely used chromogenic substrate for phosphatases. Under alkaline conditions, ALP hydrolyzes pNPP to generate para-nitrophenol (p-nitrophenol), which yields a yellow product in basic solution with maximum absorbance at 405 nm. The intensity of the yellow color is proportional to ALP activity, allowing quantitative measurement via spectrophotometry. This kit provides sufficient reagents for 100 assays.Product Component TableA1491772Component100TStorageA1491772AAssay Buffer50 mL-20℃A1491772BChromogenic Substrate2 tubes-20℃.

Reagent Preparation: Bring all reagents to room temperature before use.1.1 Chromogenic Substrate Solution: Dissolve one tube of substrate in 2.51 mL Assay Buffer. Mix thoroughly and keep on ice. Use within 6 hours.1.2 10 mM p-Nitrophenol Stock Solution: Dissolve 1 mg p-nitrophenol in 719 µL ultrapure water to obtain 10 mM solution. Store at -20°C.1.3 Standard Working Solution: Dilute 10 µL of 10 mM p-nitrophenol solution with Assay Buffer to 0.2 mL (final concentration: 0.5 mM).2. Sample Preparation2.1 Cell or Tissue Lysates: Lyse cells or tissues using an appropriate lysis buffer (without phosphatase inhibitors). Centrifuge and collect supernatant. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Western & IP Lysis Buffer (without protease inhibitors) is recommended.2.2 Plasma, Serum, Urine: These can be used directly. Include a no-substrate control for plasma/serum to account for background color. Do not use EDTA or citrate anticoagulants. Urine may typically be used directly. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.2.3 Sample Dilution: If ALP activity is high, dilute samples with lysis buffer, PBS, or Assay Buffer. Ensure sufficient Assay Buffer remains for the assay.3. Equilibrate substrate solution at 37°C and set microplate reader to 405 nm.4. Set up blank, standard, and sample wells in a 96-well plate as below. Standard volumes: 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 µL. Sample volume: typically 50 µL. Reduce volume or dilute if ALP activity is too high.ReagentBlankStandardSampleAssay Buffer50 µL(100-X) µL(50-Y) µLSubstrate Solution50 µL—50 µLSample——Y µLStandard Working Sol.—X µL—5. Mix gently by pipetting or using a plate shaker.6. Incubate at 37°C for 5–10 min (extend to 30 min for low-activity samples).7. Add 100 µL Stop Solution per well to terminate the reaction. A yellow color will develop in positive wells.8. Measure absorbance at 405 nm.Definition of ALP Activity Unit1. One DEA unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to produce 1 µM *p*-nitrophenol per minute at 37°C in pH 9.8 diethanolamine (DEA) buffer.2. One Glycine unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to produce 1 µM *p*-nitrophenol per minute at 25°C in pH 9.6 glycine buffer.3. One Glycine unit ≈ 3 DEA units. This kit measures DEA units.Calculation of ALP Activity1. Standard working solution concentration: 500 µM.2. Standard volumes correspond to final amounts of 20, 40, 80, 120, 160, and 200 units (for 5-min incubation).3. Keep incubation time consistent for all samples (e.g., 5 min).4. Generate standard curve: (A₄₀₅ Standard – A₄₀₅ Blank) → regression equation.5. Calculate sample value: (A₄₀₅ Sample – A₄₀₅ Blank).6. Interpolate sample value into standard curve to determine ALP activity.Precautions1. For absolute quantification, precisely time the reaction. Use longer incubation (e.g., 30 min) to reduce operational error. Dilute high-activity samples appropriately.2. Avoid ALP inhibitors such as EDTA, fluoride, and citrate in samples.3. Assay Buffer and *p*-nitrophenol are hazardous. Stop Solution is corrosive—handle with care.4. It is recommended to test 1–2 samples initially as a pilot experiment.5. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (lab coat, gloves) while handling reagents.6. For research use only...
