Hydroxyproline standard curve

Manufactured by Merck Group

The Hydroxyproline standard curve is a laboratory tool used to quantify the concentration of hydroxyproline, a amino acid commonly found in collagen. It provides a standardized reference to measure the amount of hydroxyproline present in a sample through spectrophotometric analysis. The standard curve serves as a calibration tool to determine the concentration of hydroxyproline in unknown samples.

Hydroxyproline proline measurement was performed according to (Stoilov et al., 2018 (link)) In brief, depilated skin tissues (~20 mg each) were hydrolyzed with 6 N hydrochloric acid (Thermo Fisher) at 105°C for 48 h, and then were dried 65°C for 90 min in SpeedVac. Samples were dissolved in 400μl H2O and vortexed vigorously. Then, an aliquot of dissolved sample was oxidized with 1.5 mg of chloramine-T (Sigma) for 20 min at room temperature followed by reaction with 20 mg of p-dimethylaminobezaldehyde (Fluka) that was dissolved in propanol containing 20% perchloric acid (Aldrich) for 10 min at 65°C. Samples were aliquot in 96 wells and read using Cytation 5 Cell Imaging Multi-Mode Reader (BioTek) at 550nm. Hydroxyproline content was determined by extrapolation from a hydroxyproline standard curve (Sigma). Hydroxyproline content per tissue weight was calculated by normalizing with tissue weight.

AF and NP tissues were isolated from IVDs and immediately frozen at -80°C and lyophilized to determine dry weight. Lyophilized samples were then digested in papain solution (100mM Na2PO4, 5mM N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine, 5mM EDTA, 3.875 U/mL papain (Sigma-Aldrich)) at 65°C overnight. Digestate was then assayed for sulfated-GAG content using 1,9-Dimethyl-Methylene Blue assay with a chondroitin sulfate standard (2.5-25 µg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich). (34) To quantify collagen content, digestates were hydrolyzed for 1 hour at 121°C and 15 psi in 6N HCl (Sigma-Aldrich). Hydrolyzed digestates then underwent hydroxyproline assay as described by Cissell et al, (35) in conjunction with a hydroxyproline standard curve (5-35µg/ml; Sigma-Aldrich). Collagen content was inferred from hydroxyproline quantity using hydroxyproline : collagen percentage of 13.5%. (36) Sulfated-GAG and collagen content were respectively normalized to dry weight and were additionally expressed as the ratio of sulfated-GAG to hydroxyproline (GAG:HyPro).

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.
