| Description | Lactic acid is an important intermediate product in the metabolic processes of organisms, closely related to carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, protein metabolism, and intracellular energy metabolism. Lactic acid concentration is a key indicator for evaluating glycogen metabolism and aerobicLactic acid is an important intermediate product in the metabolic processes of organisms, closely related to carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, protein metabolism, and intracellular energy metabolism. Lactic acid concentration is a key indicator for evaluating glycogen metabolism and aerobic metabolism. Abnormally high concentrations of lactic acid are associated with pathological conditions such as cancer, diabetes, and lactic acidosis.The detection principle of this kit is as follows: Lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of L-lactate to pyruvate, simultaneously reducing NAD+ to NADH and H+. Further, through the hydrogen transfer action of 1-mPMS, WST-8 reacts to form a yellow, soluble formazan. The absorbance at 450 nm is measured to calculate the L-lactate content in the sample.Detection Range: 0.03-2 mMSensitivity: 0.03 mMApplicable Samples: Animal and plant tissues, cells, bacteria, serum (plasma), or other liquids.L1501211Component48T96TStorageL1501211ALactate Assay Buffer70 mL70 mL×22-8℃L1501211BLactate Dehydrogenase0.7 mL1.4 mL-20℃L1501211CLactate Dehydrogenase Cofactor0.5 mL1 mL-20℃L1501211DWST-8350 µL700 µL-20℃.

Sample PreparationNote: Fresh samples are recommended. If not used immediately, samples can be stored at -80°C for up to 1 month. NADH or NADPH present in cell or tissue extracts can create background for lactate assay. To remove NADH or NADPH background, an equal amount of sample can be assayed without lactate dehydrogenase, and the background reading should be subtracted from the lactate reading. Endogenous lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) can degrade lactate. Samples containing LDH (e.g., cell culture medium, cell or tissue lysates) should be processed using a 10 kDa MW cutoff ultrafiltration tube (centrifuge at 12,000 g, 4°C for 10 min; follow the filter instructions) to remove all proteins. Use the filtrate for detection, then store at -80°C.3.1 Animal/Plant Tissues: Weigh approximately 0.1 g of tissue sample, add 1 mL of Lactate Assay Buffer, and homogenize on ice. Centrifuge at 12,000 g, 4°C for 5 min. Transfer the supernatant to a new tube and keep on ice for detection.3.2 Cells or Bacteria: Collect 5×10^6 cells. Wash the cells or bacteria with pre-cooled PBS. Centrifuge at 800 g for 2 min, discard the supernatant. Add 1 mL of Lactate Assay Buffer, and disrupt using an ultrasonic homogenizer on ice for 5 min (power 20% or 200 W, ultrasonic 3 s, interval 7 s, repeat 30 times). Centrifuge at 12,000 g, 4°C for 5 min. Collect the supernatant and keep on ice for detection.3.3 Plasma and Serum (Other Biological Fluids): Detect directly.4.

These endonucleases will cut off genomic DNA between nucleosomes and produce 180 bp-200 BP DNA fragments, which appear as a specific ladder pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. When double strand or single strand breaks occur in When apoptosis occurs, some DNA endonucleases will be activated. These endonucleases will cut off genomic DNA between nucleosomes and produce 180 bp-200 BP DNA fragments, which appear as a specific ladder pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. When double strand or single strand breaks occur in genomic DNA, a large number of sticky 3'-oh ends will be generated, which can interact with YF under the catalysis of deoxyribonucleotide terminal transferase (TDT) ®/ CY dUTP binding can directly detect apoptotic cells by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. This kind of method is called terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL). Because normal or proliferating cells have almost no DNA breaks, there is no 3'-oh formation and they can rarely be stained. TUNEL method can stain intact single apoptotic nuclei or apoptotic bodies in situ, can accurately reflect the typical biochemical and morphological characteristics of apoptosis, and can detect a very small number of apoptotic cells, so it is widely used in the study of apoptosis. This kit has a wide range of applications and can be used to detect apoptosis in frozen or paraffin sections, as well as cultured adherent cells or suspended cells. It can selectively detect apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks caused by irradiation and drug treatment. This kit detects cell apoptosis with a short time-consuming, one-step staining reaction and can be detected after washing.Composition: Composition 20T 50T A. aladdin®640 TUNEL Reaction Buffer 1 mL 2 ×1.25 mL B.

This kit contains Calcein-AM and Propidium Iodide (PI) solutions, which stains viable and dead cells, respectively(Fig. 1). Calcein-AM, an acetoxymethyl ester of calcein, is highly Calcein AM /PI Double Staining Kitis utilized for simultaneous fluorescence staining of viable and dead cells. This kit contains Calcein-AM and Propidium Iodide (PI) solutions, which stains viable and dead cells, respectively(Fig. 1). Calcein-AM, an acetoxymethyl ester of calcein, is highly lipophilic and cell membrane permeable. Though Calcein-AM itself is not a fluorescent molecule, the calcein generated from Calcein-AM by esterase in a viable cell emits a strong green fluorescence (excitationat 490 nm, emission at515 nm). Therefore, Calcein-AM only stains viable cells. On the other hand, PI, a nuclei staining dye, cannot pass through a viable cell membrane. It reaches the nucleus by passing through disordered areas of dead cell membrane, and intercalates with the DNA double helix of the cell to emit red fluorescence (excitation: 535 nm,emmision: 617 nm). Since both calcein and PI-DNA can be excited with 490 nm, simultaneous monitoring of viable and dead cells is possible with a fluorescence microscope. With 545 nm excitation, only dead cells can be observed (Fig. 1). Since optimal staining conditions differ from cell line to cell line, we recommend that a suitable concentration of PI and Calcein-AM be individually determined. Please note that PI is suspected to be highly carcinogenic;careful handling is required.Required Equipment and Materials:Microscope with 490 nm excitation filter and 530 nm emission filter；CO2incubator；10 µl and 200 µl adjustable pipettes, PBSSolution A (Calcein-AM)；Solution B (PI) Storage Condition: -20oC ；Shipping Condition: blue ice.Application:Assay Procedure1)Add 2.5 µl Solution A and 12.5 µl Solution B to 5 ml PBS to prepare assay solution.*2)Wash the cell with PBS several times to remove residual esterase activity.3)Add 100uLof assay solution to200uL105~106CELLSsolution and incubate the mixture at 37oC for 15 min.4)Detect fluorescence using a fluorescence mircoscope with 490 nm excitationfor simultaneous monitoring of viable and dead cells.With 545 nm excitation, only dead cells can be observed.*The following steps may be necessary tooptimizethe suitable concentration of each reagent:1)Prepare dead cells by 10 min incubation in 0.1% saponin or 0.1-0.5% digitonin or by 30 min incubation in 70% ethanol.2)Stain dead cells with 0.1-10 µM PI solution to find a PI concentration that stains the nucleus only, not the cytosol.3)Stain dead cells with 0.1-10 µM Calcein-AM solution to find a Calcein-AM concentration that does not stain the cytosol.
