Elisa reader

Manufactured by RayBiotech
Sourced in Canada

The ELISA reader is a laboratory instrument used to measure the optical density of solutions in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) microplates. It is designed to detect and quantify the presence of specific proteins, antibodies, or other biomolecules in samples. The device reads the absorbance of the colored product produced in the ELISA reaction, providing a quantitative measurement of the target analyte.

Quantification of Thyroid Hormones and Appetite Regulators

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The 125I radioimmunoassay (RIA) kits of T3 and T4 (Institute of Atomic Energy, Beijing, China) that were previously validated for Mongolian gerbil were used to quantify serum T3 and T4 concentrations. The intra-assay coefficients of variation (CV) were 5.1% for T3 and 4.4% for T4 (44 (link)).
Serum ghrelin levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit (catalog no. CEA991Ra; Cloud-Clone Corp.), and serum leptin levels were measured using an ELISA kit for leptin (catalog no. SEA084Ra; Cloud-Clone Corp.) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Absorbance was measured at 450 nm against a blank using an ELISA reader (RayBiotech, Canada). The intra- and interassay CVs were <10% and <15% for both kits. The minimum detectable dose for ghrelin was 52.3 pg/ml, and that for leptin was 0.129 ng/ml.

We computed GSH level by Ellman,s technique [46 (link)–48 ]. In summary, supernatant 1 mL was blended with 1 mL of 4% sulfosalicylic acid, then it was centrifuged at (1200 g) for a quarter-hour at 4 °C. Then, 2.7 mL of 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and 0.2 mL of 5,5-dithiobis 2-nitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) (40 mg/10 mL of 0.1 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4) were mixed. Afterward, the yellow color was investigated instantly at 412 nm by an ELISA reader (RayBiotech, Canada).

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was assayed by the method described in the commercial VEGF ELISA kit instructions (Peninsula Inc., USA), while transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) was assayed according to the method described in commercial kit from Abcam Company (USA). The level of soluble Fas (sFas) was quantitated by the sandwich ELISA kit according to manufacture instructions (Biosource International, Camarillo, California, USA). Absorbance was measured at 450 nm against blank using an ELISA reader (RayBiotech, Canada).

Quantifying Lipid Peroxidation via TBARS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Lipid peroxidation was computed using estimating colorimetric of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS) following the reaction of malondialdehyde with thiobarbituric acid. In summary, 500 µl of tissue supernatant was mixed with one ml trichloroacetic acid (TCA) (20%). Then, for 10 min, it was centrifuged (2000 g). One ml of the supernatant was mixed with 0.5 ml of 0.67% thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and heated for 30 min in a boiling water bath, then cooled and the absorbance was determined by an ELISA reader (RayBiotech, Canada) at 532 nm [42 (link), 43 ].

Protein Quantification via Biuret Method

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
By applying the Biuret method (Ernest, 1996), we measured the protein content. It is worth noting that bovine serum albumin (BSA) was administered as the main criterion. So that 2.9 mL of normal saline and 3 mL of Biuret reagent were mixed in 0.1 ml of the sample. Afterward, the content was put at the temperature room for 10 min in order to measure the absorbance rate at 540 nm by an ELISA reader (RayBiotech, Canada). A BSA standard curve was used to measure the protein concentration [41 ]

By a technique that measures the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the function of CAT was evaluated [49 (link), 50 ]. In summary, the sample contained 1.95 mL of phosphate buffer (0.05 M, pH 7), 1 mL of hydrogen peroxide (0.019 M), and 0.05 mL supernatant. Afterward, the absorbance was determined immediately at 240 nm by an ELISA reader (RayBiotech, Canada).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
