The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) were determined spectrophotometrically, with maximum optical absorption at 586 nm, by measuring the product that formed during the reaction using the selective reagent 1-methyl-2-phenylindole (Aldrich, CAS Number 3558-24-5) in accordance with Gérard-Monnier et al. [27 (link)]. To construct the calibration curve, 1,1,3,3-tetraethoxypropane was used [17 (link)].

Lipid Oxidation Markers Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CDs were obtained after extraction with chloroform-methanol. The spectrophotometric assay was performed at 234 nm [15 (link)]. CDs were quantified using a molar extinction coefficient of 2.7 × 104 M−1 cm−1, and the results are reported as nmol of CD/mg dry weight. LHP levels were evaluated using the assay conditions described by El-Saadani et al. [16 (link)]. The calibration curves were obtained using 1 mM t-butylhydroperoxide as standard. The concentration of LHP was calculated using the molar absorptivity of I3 measured at 365 nm (є = 2.46 ± 0.25 × 104●M-1cm−1), and the results are expressed as nmol LHP/mg dry weight. MDA levels were evaluated using 15 mM 1-methyl-2-phenylindole (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) for detection at 586 nm. The values obtained are expressed as nmol of MDA/mg dry weight [17 (link)]. The dry weight was determined according to the conditions described by Bernal et al. [18 ].

The total concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) was quantified spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 586 nm as formerly mentioned (Gérard-Monnier et al., 1998 (link)). In brief, liver homogenate samples were prepared as previously described (Shaker et al., 2016 (link)), followed by mixing 0.4 ml of sample with 0.65 ml of the reagent mixture [10.3 mM 1-methyl-2-phenylindole (Sigma-Aldrich, USA; Cat. no. 404888) dissolved in acetonitrile and diluted with 32 μM FeCl3 dissolved in methanol in ratio 3:1] and 0.15 ml of 15.4 M methanesulfonic acid (Merck, Germany; Cat. no. 8060220250). The sample tubes were subsequently kept at 45 °C for a period of 40 min, cooled on ice and centrifuged at 4000 g for 10 min. The collected supernatants were measured spectrophotometrically against sample blanks. A standard calibration curve of tetramethoxypropane (Sigma-Aldrich, USA; Cat. no. 108383) was conducted to estimate the concentration of total MDA + 4-HNE.

Lipoperoxidation products were measured in isolated LDL-c and HDL-c lipoproteins. CDs were obtained after extraction with chloroform: methanol (2:1). A spectrophotometric assay was performed at 234 nm [15 (link)]. CDs were quantified using a molar extinction coefficient of 2.7 × 104 M− 1 cm− 1, and the results are reported as nmol of CD/mg dry weight. LHP levels were evaluated using the assay conditions described by El-Saadani [16 (link)]. The calibration curve was obtained using t-butylhydroperoxide 1 mM as the standard. The concentration of LHP was calculated using the molar absorptivity of I3 measured at 365 nm (є = 2.46 ± 0.25 × 104 ● M− 1 ● cm− 1), and the results are expressed as nmol LHP/mg dry weight. MDA levels were evaluated using 1-methyl-2-phenylindole (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA) 15 mM for detection at 586 nm. The values ​​obtained are expressed as nmol of MDA/mg dry weight [17 (link)]. The dry weight was determined according to the conditions described by Bernal [18 ].

A 650-μL aliquot of culture medium was placed in an Eppendorf tube and added with 150 μL of 1-methyl-2-phenylindole (10 mM) (Sigma) and allowed to react with MDA to produce stable chromophores. The tubes were vortexed and added with 30 μL of HCL (37 %), shaken again, and incubated in the dark at 45 °C for 60 min to drive the reaction to completion. After incubation, the tubes were centrifuged at 300 × g for 15 min. Finally, the absorbance of the upper organic layer was measured in a plate reader at 586 nm. A standard curve of 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25 and 0.125 mM tetramethoxypropane (TMOP) (Sigma) was built. The result was expressed as μg/mg protein by the Bradford standard method (Sigma, B6916).

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.
