The seeds from WT, VC and PePLDδ-overexpressed lines (OE6 and OE7) were germinated and cultured on 1/2 MS medium for seven days. These seedlings were then treated with 0 or 130 mM NaCl for another seven days. Control and salt-stressed seedlings were harvested and ground in liquid-nitrogen-precooled mortars. The samples (0.1 g fresh weight) were mixed with 1 mL precooled extraction buffer containing 1mM EDTA, 1% PVP, 1mM ASA and 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). Through centrifugation (12,000 g) at 4 °C for 10 min, the supernatant solution was obtained to determine enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and ascorbic acid peroxidase (APX). Antioxidant enzyme activity assay kits, such as A001-3-2 (total SOD determination kit), A084-3-1 (POD assay kit) and A123-1-1 (APX test box) (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China), were used to detect enzymatic activity according to the manufacturer instructions. The total protein in crude enzyme extract was assayed with A045-2-2 (total protein determination kit) (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China).

The activity of PAL was used as an important metabolic process indicator in potatoes. The total SOD activity in potato leaves was determined using a kit (A001-1, Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China) based on the nitrobluetetrazolium method according to the manufacturer’s instruction, as shown in a previous report [37 (link)]. The POD activity was measured by using a POD assay kit (A084-3-1; Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Najing, China) on the basis of guaiacol oxidation at 470 nm by H2O2 according to the manufacturer’s instruction, as shown in a previous report [38 (link)]. Similarly, the activity of CAT was also measured using a CAT assay kit (A007-1; Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, China) as seen in a report [38 (link)]. The PAL can catalyze L-phenylalanine to produce trans-cinnamic acid and ammonia, and the maximum absorption peak of trans-cinnamic acid is 290 nm. PAL activity was calculated by measuring the increase in the OD value to 290 nm using a PAL assay kit (E-BC-K522-S; Elabscience Biotechnology Co. Ltd, China). As there was no POD, CAT, and PAL activity in P. infestans through test kits, the SOD activity of P. infestans was used as the antioxidant system indicator in P. infestans.

Maize Leaf Antioxidant Enzyme Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fresh leaves (the ear leaf) of maize were taken at the tasseling stage for the determination of leaf antioxidant enzyme activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) content. Specifically, 0.2 g of fresh leaves were placed in a precooled mortar, and 1.8 mL phosphate buffer (pH = 7.8) was added to the ice bath to grind the leaves into a homogenate. The grinding solution was transferred into a 2 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 12000 r·min-1 for 10 min at 4°C. The supernatant, which was the crude enzyme extract, was stored at -20°C for further use for the determination of peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities. Alternatively, the phosphate buffer used above was replaced with saline extract to obtain the enzyme extract for the determination of catalase (CAT) activity. The extract was replaced with the extract from the MDA kit, and the obtained enzyme extract was used for the determination of MDA content.
Then, the enzyme extracts were further processed for POD, SOD, CAT and MDA measurements using A084-3-1, T001-1, A007-1-1 and A003-3-1 kits (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute), respectively. Finally, the absorbance values were measured at 420 nm, 550 nm, 405 nm and 532 nm using a plate reader (Synergy HTX, BioTek, USA).

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.
