Serum and urine samples were taken immediately prior to euthanasia for measurement of serum NGAL and urine NGAL/creatinine ratios. Pig NGAL ELISA kit (Enzo Life Sciences, Farmingdale, NY) was used to analyze serum and urine samples by a Biotek plate reader (Winooski, VT). Creatinine assay kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) was used to determine urine concentrations by Biotek plate reader (Winooski, VT). Serum creatinine was measured using a commercially available DRI-CHEM analyzer (HESKA Lab Systems, Loveland, CO).

Urine creatinine levels were measured using Creatinine Assay Kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) based on the Jaffe alkaline picrate method and following the manufacturer recommended protocol. Serum urea nitrogen (SUn) was determined using QuantiChrom™ Urea Assay Kit (BioAssay System, Atlanta, GA) following the manufacturer recommended protocol. To measure protein concentration in collected urine samples, pre-cooled 40 μl distilled and deionized water (ddH2O) and 200 μl of pre-chilled acetone (overnight at −20 °C) were added to 10 μL urine. The sample was vigorously mixed and incubated at −20 °C for 30 min, then centrifuged at 14,000 × g 4 °C, for 15 min. Precipitated proteins were resuspended in 40 μl ddH2O and protein content was measured using Pierce BCA assay (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL). Protein excretion calculation formula: protein concentration × volume/minutes (4 h); urine output calculation formula: total urine volume/minutes (4 h).

Precipitated proteins were resuspended in 40 µl ddH2O and protein content was measured using Pierce BCA assay (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL). Protein excretion calculation formula: protein concentration x volume/ minutes (4 hrs.); urine output calculation formula: total urine volume / minutes (4 hrs.).

Comprehensive Urine Biomarker Profiling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Urine creatinine was measured using a Creatinine Assay Kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN), following the manufacturer’s instructions. Total protein in urine samples was measured, as previously described (PMID: 26213685). Briefly, proteins were precipitated from urine samples by adding 40 μL of water and 200 μL of prechilled acetone to 10 μL of urine. Samples were then incubated at −20°C for 30 min and then centrifuged at 14,000 g, 4°C, for 15 min. Pellets were resuspended in 40 μL of water, and protein concentration was measured using the Pierce BCA Assay (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL). Albumin from urine samples was measured using the Albumin ELISA Kit (Bethyl Laboratories, Montgomery, TX), following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) biomarker levels were analyzed by multiplex assays, using the Luminex technology. The multiplex kidney injury panels (MKI1MAG-94K, MKI2MAG-94K; Merck Millipore) were used, according to the manufacturer’s instructions, to measure levels of β-2-microglobulin (B2M), KIM-1, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), CysC, epidermal growth factor (EGF), lipocalin-2-NGAL, clusterin, and osteopontin (OPN). The results were read using a Bio-Plex MAGPIX Multiplex Reader and analyzed with Bio-Plex Manager 6.1 software (Bio-Rad, France)

BG, TG, LDL-C, and BUN levels were measured using an automatic biochemical analyzer at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Nanchang, Jiangxi, China. Rat urinary microalbumin was detected using a rat microalbuminuria (MAU/ALB) ELISA Kit (Cusabio) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Rat urinary creatinine was detected using a creatinine assay kit (R&D Systems China Co., Ltd.), and the UACR was calculated and expressed in mg/g.

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.
