Ros kit

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The ROS kit is a laboratory equipment product designed for the detection and measurement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in biological samples. It provides the necessary tools and reagents for researchers to quantify the presence of various ROS, such as superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroxyl radicals, within their experiments. The core function of the ROS kit is to enable accurate and reliable ROS analysis, supporting various research applications.

ROS Determination in SH-SY5Y Cells

ROS generation was determined using the ROS kit (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, SH-SY5Y cells were seeded in 96-well black plates with clear bottoms at a density 1 × 105 cells/mL. Cells were pretreated with CC or FCC for 2 h followed by co-culture with H2O2 for 3 h. The medium was removed and washed by Hanks’ Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS). The master reaction mix (100 µL) was added to the wells and then cells were incubated in 5% CO2, 37 °C incubator for 30 min. The fluorescence intensity was measured at an excitation of 640 nm and an emission of 675 nm.

Signals emitted in the Live/Dead Kit (Sigma-Aldrich 04511) and ROS Kit (Sigma-Aldrich MAK 143) assays used to examine the mechanisms of cell death and proliferation were analyzed in an inverted epifluorescence microscope (Model DMi8 , Leica Microsystems, Germany) equipped with fluorescence filters (546/10 RHOD excitation filter and 585/40 emission, DAPI 350/50 excitation filter and 460/40 emission, and FITC excitation filter 480/40 and emission 527/30), a monochrome DFC 450C camera (Leica Microsystems) and fluorescence overlay software (LAS AF ver. 3.1.0, Leica Microsystems CMS GmbH). Since the ommochromes are capable of absorbing ultraviolet rays and can interact with ultraviolet light, the fluorescence emission in the suspension of methanol/HCl pigments (0.31-10 mg/ml) in nutrient broth medium (pH 7.4) was evaluated.

Quantifying Cellular Reactive Oxygen Species

ROS was quantified using a ROS kit (Sigma) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cellular ROS levels were measured by flow cytometry. Briefly, 2 × 105 cells were plated onto six-well cell culture plates and allowed to attach to the wells overnight. Thereafter, adhered cells were treated with PL (1.0, 2.0, or 4.0 μM) in the presence or absence of NAC (5 mM) pre-treatment for 2 h. After removal of the medium, the ROS indicator, DCFH-DA (10 μM), was added to fresh FBS-free medium and incubated for 30 min at 37 °C in the dark. Cells were then collected, and fluorescence was analyzed using a FACS Calibur flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, CA).

Zebrafish Intestinal Mitochondria Isolation and ROS Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Intestinal mitochondria were isolated by using a tissue mitochondria isolation kit (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China). In brief, fresh intestine was collected from zebrafish and homogenized for 10 times in the isolation buffer using a glass homogenizer. The homogenate was then centrifugated at 1000 g for 10 min. The supernatant was then aspirated and further centrifugated at 11,000 g for 10 min. The precipitation was resuspended in the mitochondria storage buffer. The purity of isolated mitochondria was assessed according to Fernandez-Vizarra et al. (2006) (Figures S9A–S9D). Then isolated mitochondria were incubated with a fluorescent probe provided by the ROS kit (Sigma, USA) for 2 h in a 96-well flat-bottom plate. The fluorescence intensity was measured excitation 490 nm and emission 520 nm. The ROS level was expressed as the fold change compared with the HFD group. Rosup was applied as a positive control (Figure S9E).

The non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell line A549, pancreatic cancer cell line PANC and human normal hepatocyte line MIHA were obtained from the Cell Resource Center of Peking Union Medical College. Cells were cultured in DMEM (Gibco, USA) at 37 °C under 5% CO 2 supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (Gibco, USA) and 100 U/mL penicillin and streptomycin (HyClone, USA). Measurement of intracellular ROS production ROS were monitored using a ROS kit (Sigma, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. In short, 1.5 × 10 5 cells were grown in six-well cell culture plates and incubated overnight. After treatment with or without drugs, cells were incubated with 10 μM DCFH-DA for 30 min at 37 °C in the dark. DCF uorescence intensity was measured by ow cytometry (BD FACS Calibur, BD Biosciences, USA) and Nikon uorescence microscopy (Nikon, Japan).

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.
