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 (20-2000 U/mL).

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

Sample type Dilution factor
20% Rat ileum tissue homogenate 1
20% Rat stomach tissue homogenate 1
20% Rat liver tissue homogenate 1

 

Note: The diluent is PBS (0.01 M, pH 7.4).

 

Detection Principle

Sucrase catalyzes its substrate (sucrose) to produce glucose, which produces hydrogen peroxide under the action of glucose oxidase. Hydrogen peroxide reacts with chromogenic agent to produce red substance, which has a strong absorption peak at 505 nm. In a certain concentration range, It's absorbance is proportional to glucose concentration. Therefore, the activity of sucrase can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 505 nm.

Parameter:

Intra-assay Precision

Three rat liver tissue samples were assayed in replicates of 20 to determine precision within an assay (CV = Coefficient of Variation).

Parameters Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3
Mean (U/mL) 32.50 135.00 482.00
%CV 5.7 5.3 5.2


Inter-assay Precision

Three rat liver tissue samples were assayed 20 times in duplicate by three operators to determine precision between assays.

Parameters Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3
Mean (U/mL) 32.50 135.00 482.00
%CV 6.2 6.4 6.9

 

 

Recovery

Take three samples of high concentration, middle concentration and low concentration to test the samples of each concentration for 6 times parallelly to get the average recovery rate of 100%.

Standard 1 Standard 2 Standard 3
Expected Conc. (mmol/L) 1.5 7.8 17.5
Observed Conc. (mmol/L) 1.5 8.0 16.8
Recovery rate (%) 101 103 96

 

Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 20 U/mL. This was determined by adding two standard deviations to the mean O.D. obtained when the zero standard was assayed 20 times, and calculating the corresponding concentration.

 

Standard Curve

As the OD value of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique or temperature effects), so the standard curve and data are provided as below for reference only:

Concentration (mmol/L) 0 1 2 5 10 15 20 25
Average OD 0.083 0.112 0.140 0.233 0.378 0.527 0.683 0.840
Absoluted OD 0.000 0.030 0.058 0.150 0.295 0.444 0.600 0.757
