Osteocalcin rat elisa system

Manufactured by GE Healthcare
Sourced in Japan, United Kingdom

The Osteocalcin rat ELISA system is a laboratory equipment used to measure the levels of osteocalcin, a protein found in bone, in rat samples. It is a quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) that utilizes specific antibodies to detect and quantify the presence of osteocalcin in the sample.

The bone metabolic markers and biochemical data were measured in serum samples obtained from Groups 6, 7, and 8. The blood samplings were performed before the daily administration of saline or hPTH(1–34) on days 0 to 3. It was also performed at 6 h after the first administration of saline or hPTH(1–34) on day 0. The sampling on day 5 was performed at 24 h after the day 4 administration. All rats were fasted for at least 6 h before blood collection. Serum was obtained by centrifugation of the collected blood samples from the subclavian vein according to the time schedules as mentioned above. The serum samples were aliquoted and stored at − 80 °C until analysis.
The serum level of osteocalcin (OC) was determined using an osteocalcin rat ELISA system (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ, USA). The serum level of sclerostin (SOST) was measured using Mouse/Rat SOST Quantikine ELISA Kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). The following serum biochemical assays were performed: inorganic phosphorus (Pi) using L-type Wako Pi (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Osaka, Japan), calcium (Ca) using Calcium E-HA test Wako (Wako Pure Chemical Industries), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity using L-type Wako ALP ∙ J (Wako Pure Chemical Industries). All assays were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions.

At the completion of the 3-month administration period, blood was collected before and 6, 24, 72, and 144 hr after the final dose for the once-weekly group, and before and 6 and 24 hr after the final dose for the once-daily group. ELISA was performed to measure serum levels of osteocalcin (OC) and cross-linked N-telopeptide of type 1 collagen (NTx) using an osteocalcin rat ELISA system (GE Healthcare Japan Corp., Tokyo, Japan) and OSTEOMARK NTx Serum (Alere Medical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan), respectively, and the OC and NTx concentrations were determined based on the calibration curves constructed using their respective reference standards. Means of duplicates were used as the measured concentrations.

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.
