For physiological index measurements, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), proline (Pro), Chlorophyll, and the activities of catalase (CAT) were determined with Malondialdehyde (MDA) assay kit, proline assay kit, Chlorophyll assay kit, Catalase (CAT) assay kit, and Peroxidase assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng, Nanjing, China), respectively. All samples were taken from the third leaf of tobacco.

The chlorophyll assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China) was used to determine the content of total chlorophylls in different tea samples. Briefly, the tea leaves (0.1 g) were ground in liquid nitrogen with 1 mL distilled water and 50 mg absorbent in dark, 10 mL of extraction solution [ethanol:acetone = 1:2 (v/v)] was added and kept until the sediment turned white in dark. The extract was filtered and the filtrate was analyzed using Epoch microplate spectrophotometer (Bio Tek, Winooski, VT, USA) at the wavelengths of 645 and 663 nm.
The plant malondialdehyde (MDA) assay kit (colorimetric method) was purchased from Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China. The tea leaves (0.1 g) were ground in liquid nitrogen, then the powder was transferred to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube, followed by the addition of 0.9 mL extraction buffer. After homogenization, the supernatant was centrifuged at 8000 rpm and 4 °C for 10 min. Further, the supernatant reacted with thiobarbituric acid (TBA) according to the protocol, and the absorbance of mixture was analyzed by Epoch microplate spectrophotometer (Bio Tek, Winooski, VT, USA) at the wavelength of 532 nm.

Measuring Leaf Biochemical Profiles

The total soluble sugar contents of CK, UVB, and UVD were measured
with a plant soluble sugar content test kit (Solarbio, Beijing, China)
according to the instructions. The absorbance of each sample was measured
at 620 nm, and the content of soluble sugar was calculated on the
basis of a standard curve. The T-AOC and chlorophyll content of each
group were determined colorimetrically by a total antioxidant capacity
assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute, Nanjing, China)
and chlorophyll assay kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute).
Chlorophyll content determination was performed with 0.1 g leaf samples.
The absorbance values at OD645 and OD663 were
measured. The calculation formula are as follows: (1) chlorophyll
a = (12.7 × OD663 – 2.69 × OD645) × volume × dilution rate/(sample weight × 1000).
(2) Chlorophyll b = (22.9 × A645 – 4.68 × A663) ×
volume×dilution rate/(sample weight × 1000). (3) Total chlorophyll
content = chlorophyll a content + chlorophyll b content. T-AOC content
measurement was performed after incubating the sample and mix buffer
at 37 °C for 30 min. At least three independent biological replicates
were performed per treatment.

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.
