Luminol

Manufactured by Agilent Technologies
Sourced in United States

Luminol is a chemical compound used in analytical chemistry and forensic science. It is a light-emitting compound that can be used to detect the presence of trace amounts of blood or other oxidizing substances. Luminol reacts with these substances to produce a chemiluminescent reaction, which can be observed and photographed to aid in the identification and analysis of evidence.

Measuring NADPH Oxidase Activity via Chemiluminescence

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NADPH oxidase activity was measured by luminol/isoluminol-enhanced chemiluminescence (CL) using a microplate reader (Synergy H1 MultiMode Reader, BioTek, U.S.A) [30] . For intracellular ROS measurement, granulocytes were added to KRG-Ca 2+ containing cell permeable luminol (10 µg/mL; Sigma-Aldrich) and 50 U/mL superoxide dismutase (Solarbio) to scavenge extracellular superoxide, while extracellular ROS was measured in the presence of 10 µg/mL isoluminol (Sigma-Aldrich). Neutrophils and reagents were then incubated for 5 min at 37°C before stimulation with fMLP (1 µM; Sigma-Aldrich), WKYMVM peptide (1 µM; Sigma-Aldrich), or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) (500 nM; Sigma-Aldrich). CL was recorded continuously for 20-25 min.

Quantifying Reactive Oxygen Species in Rat Retina

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The chemilumigenic probes, luminol (5‐amino‐2,3‐dihydro‐1,4‐phthalazinedione, Sigma) and lucigenin (bis‐N‐methylacridiniumnitrate, Sigma), were used to assess the ROS level in rat retina.30 Briefly, retinas were isolated at days 3, 7 and 14 after euthanasia and then balanced with 1 × PBS. Samples were then placed into vials containing PBS‐HEPES buffer (pH 7.2). The level of ROS was analysed by supplementing lucigenin and luminol with a final concentration of 0.2 mM. The luminescent intensity was recorded at every 1 minutes through luminescence reader (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.
