A standard curve was prepared using 100 units/mL of SOD enzyme solution (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) as a standard compound. SOD levels were determined by adding the supernatant into the reaction cocktail (pH 7.8) containing 0.108 mM xanthine solutions (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA), 216 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.8, Ajax Finechem, Auckland, New Zealand), 1.1 mM cytochrome C (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA), and 10.7 mM ethylenediaminetatraacetic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA). After that, the reaction mixture was reacted with 0.1 units/mL of xanthine oxidase enzyme solution (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) before analyzing the absorbance at 540 nm at 0 and 5 min in triplicate.

Evaluating Anti-Gout Potential via Xanthine Oxidase Inhibition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In vitro xanthine oxidase inhibition assay was used to evaluate anti-gout potential of the plant. To prepare plant extract solution, extract (2 mg) was dissolved in 1 ml 5% DMSO in water solution. In this mixture, 2.9 ml phosphate buffer (1.15 M, pH=7.5) and 0.1 ml of xanthine oxidase enzyme solution (purchased from Sigma) were added. After 15 minutes of mixture pre incubation at 25 0 C temperature, the reaction was started by adding a substrate solution (2 ml).Then after 30 minutes, the reaction was stopped by adding 1 ml of IN HCl. Absorbance was measured at 290nm. Likewise, blank was prepared but enzyme was being added to assay mixture after addition of the HCl. Xanthine oxidase activity was calculated by following formula and expressed as the percentage inhibition of xanthine oxidase. % Inhibition of xanthine oxidase = 1-(A extract/A no extract) x 100 Where, A is the absorbance (Guerrero et al., 2011) .

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.
