Urine Collection and Analysis in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For collecting urine, all experimental mice were housed individually in metabolic cages for 24 h with drinking water, without food. The mice were allowed to recover for 24 h before performing other operations. The urine output and water consumption were also measured. The urinary albumin (ml025061-j2; MIBio, Shanghai, China) and creatinine (ml026283-j2; MIBio, Shanghai, China) were detected by ELISA according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After fasting for 12 h, serum was collected. The Na levels in the urine and serum were measured by sodium assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Jiangsu, China) using a SpectraMax M5 Multifunctional Microplate Reader (Molecular Devices, United States).

Measuring Serum and Urine Aldosterone, Potassium, and Sodium

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum and urine aldosterone levels were measured with commercial ELISA kits (E-EL-0070c, Elabscience, Wuhan, Hubei, China) according to the manufacturer’s descriptions. The colorimetric method was used for analysis of potassium and sodium. Serum and urine potassium and sodium levels were, respectively, measured with a commercial Potassium Assay kit and Sodium Assay kit (C003-1-1 and C002-1-1, Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, Jiangsu, China) following the manufacturer’s descriptions.

Noninvasive Blood Pressure Monitoring

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The systolic-, diastolic- and mean blood pressures were measured at indicated weeks by a computerized noninvasive tail-cuff manometry system (BP-2010A; Softron Bio technology, Beijing, China). The five measured blood pressure values from each rat were averaged. To ensure the accuracy of blood pressure measurement, the rats were trained for one week before the experiments, in order for the rats to be acclimated to the procedure.
The rats were placed in metabolic cages for urine collection. The 24-hour-urine volumes and sodium excretions were obtained at the indicated times. The rats were acclimatized in the metabolic cages for at least 2 days before collecting the urine. Sodium concentrations in the urine samples were measured by Sodium Assay Kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China). In addition, serum selenium levels were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (Agilent 7900, Agilent Technologies, CA, USA).

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.
