Nqo1 activity assays kit

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States

The NQO1 activity assays kit is a laboratory tool designed to measure the activity of the enzyme NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1). NQO1 is an important enzyme involved in cellular defense against oxidative stress. The kit provides a quantitative method to assess NQO1 activity in biological samples.

The NQO1 activity assays kit (#ab184867) was purchased from Abcam (Cambridge, MA, USA). According to the manufacturer’s instructions, OC3-IV2 cells were lysed with 1X extraction buffer containing 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride for 15 min on ice, and then centrifuged at 17,000 × g at 4 °C for 20 min. The supernatant was collected, and then, the protein concentration of each sample was determined by bicinchoninic acid assays (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). A diluted sample and reaction buffer were added into 96-wells plate containing menadione or isoplumbagin with cofactor NADH and water-soluble tetrazolium salt (2-(4-iodophenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium, a highly sensitive tetrazolium reagent). The absorbance of reduced water-soluble tetrazolium salt was measured at 450 nm wavelengths by a spectrophotometer.

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.
