Mouse albumin elisa

Manufactured by Fortis Life Sciences
Sourced in United States

The Mouse Albumin ELISA is a quantitative sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) designed to measure the concentration of albumin in mouse serum or plasma samples. The assay utilizes antibodies specific to mouse albumin and provides a reliable method for the detection and quantification of this protein.

Cytokine Levels in Histone-Exposed Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Supernatant fluids from histone-exposed PMNs or macrophages or cell lines collected at 4 hr, and the levels of the TNF, IL-6 and IL-1β cytokines measured using ELISA kits (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Mouse albumin ELISA from Bethyl Laboratories (Montgomery, TX) was used to detect the amount of albumin leak into lung according to the manufacturer’s instructions. BALFs were also examined for content of cytokines (TNF, IL-6 and IL-1β) using the ELISA kits.

Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected via intratracheal instillation in 2 fractions (after cardiac blood draw). The first fraction (1.0 mL PBS, 0.4mM EDTA) was used for cell counting via hemocytometer (diluted 1:1 with Trypan Blue Solution, 0.4%; Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY). A second fraction (1.0 mL PBS, 0.4mM EDTA) was used for total protein (colorimetric protein assay; Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) and albumin (mouse albumin ELISA; Bethyl Laboratories, Montgomery, TX).

The ELISA measurements were performed as per manufacturer’s protocol. Mouse ELISAs. Mouse SP-D (Cat # 028248) and SP-A (Cat # 028239) from USBiological Life Sciences and mouse CC16 (Cat# EKU03200) ELISA was purchased from Biomatik. Mouse albumin ELISA (Cat# E90-134) was from Bethyl Laboratories, Inc. Human SP-A, SP-D and CC16 were also measured by ELISAs (BioVendor). Human ELISAs. The plasma sample collected closest to study enrollment was measured using the following assays. Human SP-D (Cat # RD194059101) SP-A (Cat# RD191139200R) and CC16 (Cat# RD191022200) kits were obtained from BioVendor and ELISA measurements were performed as per manufacturer’s protocol. Plasma was diluted 11-fold for SP-D measurement and diluted 25-fold for CC16 measurement, and the final OD was measured at 450 nm using Synergy 2 plate reader from BioTek. Proteins are reported in absolute concentrations (pg/mL or ng/mL plasma).

Urine was collected and the albumin concentration was measured with a mouse albumin ELISA (Bethyl laboratories, Montgomery, TX). A creatinine assay (R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN) was used to determine urine creatinine concentrations. Results are expressed as ACR in μg of albumin per mg of creatinine.

Blood glucose measurement and urinary albumin and creatinine assays were performed as described previously (18 (link)). Briefly, blood glucose was measured from tail vein blood by using a FreeStyle Freedom lite glucometer (Abbott, Abbott Park, IL). For urinary albumin and creatinine measurements, spot urine samples were collected non-invasively from mice. Urinary albumin and creatinine concentrations were measured using a mouse albumin ELISA (Bethyl Laboratories, Montgomery, TX) and a creatinine assay (Exocell, Philadelphia, PA), respectively. Subsequently, protein concentrations and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratios were calculated.

Quantifying Kidney Damage Biomarkers

Urinary albumin was measured using mouse albumin ELISA (Bethyl Laboratories) and SDS-PAGE/Coomassie blue staining, as described elsewhere (16 (link)). Plasma and 24-h urine creatinine were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (16 (link)). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was performed using standard techniques (16 (link)). Glomerular area was measured using ImageJ software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD; http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/) in 34 ± 2.1 glomeruli/kidney from 4 mice per experimental condition. A renal pathologist (G.M.) examined in a blinded fashion kidney specimens stained with periodic acid Schiff and assigned a semiquantitative pathology score based on the percentage of the area (0 = none; 1 = 1–25%; 2 = 26–50%; 3 = 51–75%; 4 = 76–100%) with the following features: glomerular nodules, mesangiolysis, mesangial sclerosis, and interstitial fibrosis (24 (link)). The percentage of glomeruli per section containing mesangiolysis or nodules was calculated (28 (link)).

Histopathological Analysis of Kidney Injury

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess extent of tissue pathology kidneys were fixed by immersion in 10% formalin solution for 48h and embedded in paraffin. Fixed kidney sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and Periodic acid-Schiff reagent (to examine basement membrane). Stained kidney sections were scanned on a Hamamatsu Nano-zoomer to capture whole kidney images and analyzed using NDP Nanozoomer software. Glomerular and tubular pathology was scored as previously described 13 . To examine kidney function urine samples were collected over 24h and urinary albumin was measured by mouse albumin ELISA (Bethyl Labs).

Dilution factors for the albumin ELISA were determined by SDS-PAGE using 5 μl urine and a BSA standard; staining was with PageBlue™ (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Urinary albumin and creatinine levels were determined by using the Mouse Albumin ELISA (E99-134, Bethyl Laboratories, Montgomery, TX, USA) and Creatinine Companion (1012, Ethos Biosciences, Philadelphia, PA, USA) kits according to the manufacturers' protocols. Albuminuria was computed as a ratio of urinary albumin to creatinine.

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.
