Ferrous Iron Colorimetric Assay Kit

Cat# E-BC-K773-M-48T

Size : 48T

Detection principle

Ferrous ions (Fe2+) in samples can bind with probe to form complexes, which has a maximum absorption peak at 593 nm. The concentration of iron can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 593 nm indirectly.

Ferrous ion level in serum was significantly induced by CCl4 and conversed by SFN. (**P<0.01, ***P<0.001)

J W Liu et al investigate Nrf2 and its dependent autophagy activation cooperatively counteract ferroptosis to alleviate acute liver injury. Ferrous ion level in rat serum were determined using ferrous ion colorimetric assay kit (E-BC-K773-M).

Dilution of sample

It is recommended to take 2~3 samples with expected large difference to do pre-experiment before formal experiment and dilute the sample according to the result of the pre-experiment and the detection range (0.4-50 μmol/L).

The recommended dilution factor for different samples is as follows (for reference only):

Sample type

Dilution factor

Human serum

1

Mouse serum

1-2

Rat serum

1

10% Mouse liver tissue homogenate

1-3

10% Rat lung tissue homogenate

1

10% Mouse heart tissue homogenate

1

10% Rat spleen tissue homogenate

1-3

10% Epipremnum aureum leaf tissue homogenate

1

Note: The diluent is reagent 1.
