Lipase Assay Kit

AcA Plasma (no EDTA), Saliva, Serum, Urine
Catalog No. ABIN1000274
  • Target
    Lipase
    Application
    Activity Assay (AcA)
    Sample Type
    Serum, Plasma (no EDTA), Urine, Saliva
    Specificity
    40 U/L
    Characteristics
    Sensitive and accurate. Linear detection range 40 to 1600 U/L lipase activity in 96-well plate assay.
    Convenient and high throughput. The procedure involves adding a single working reagent, and reading the optical density at 10 min and 20 min at room temperature or 37°C. Can be automated to process thousands of samples per day.
    Components
    Assay Buffer (pH 8.5): 15 mL. Color Reagent: 530 mg. BALB Reagent: 1.0 mL. Calibrator: 2.0 mL (equivalent to 735 U/L).
    Material not included
    Pipeting (multi-channel) devices. Clear-bottom 96-well plates (e.g. Corning Costar) and plate reader.
  • Application Notes
    Direct assays of lipase activity in serum, plasma, saliva, urine and other biological samples.
    Protocol
    1. Transfer 150 µL H2O and 150 µL Calibrator into wells of a clear- bottom 96-well plate. Pipette 10 µL samples into separate wells. Add 140 µL Working Reagent to each sample well. Tap plate briefly to mix reaction mixture. Note: if the assay is to be performed at another temperature (e.g. 37°C), warm up the Working Reagent to this temperature prior to adding to the sample.
    2. Read OD412nm on a plate reader at 10 min (OD10min) and at 20 min (OD20min).
    Reagent Preparation

    Mix Color Reagent into Assay Buffer and shake vial to mix. Add 0.8 mL BALB Reagent (sufficient for 100 assays). Alternatively for partial reconstitution: for each well of reaction, mix 5 mg Color Reagent, 140 µL Assay Buffer and 8 µL BALB Reagent. The Working Reagent should be prepared freshly and used within one hour. Important: this assay is based on a kinetic reaction, addition of the Working Reagent should be quick. Use of a multi-channel pipettor is recommended.

    Sample Preparation

    Lipase inhibitors (EDTA, and certain detergents Tween-20, NP-40), mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol interfere with this assay and should be avoided in sample preparation. Samples can be stored frozen for at least one month, if not assayed immediately. Tissue and cell lysates can be obtained by homogenization in cold PBS buffer and centrifugation (e.g. 5 min at 14,000 rpm).

    Background
    Quantitative determination of lipase activity by colorimetric (412nm) method.
    Procedure: 20 min.

    Lipase catalyzes the hydrolysis of ester bonds on the glycerol backbone of a lipid substrate. In humans, pancreatic lipase is the key enzyme responsible for breaking down fats in the digestive system by converting triglycerides to monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Human pancreatic lipase and its related protein 2 are the main lipases secreted by the pancreas. In acute pancreatitis, lipase levels can rise 5 to 10-fold within 24 to 48 hours. Increased activities have also been associated with pancreatic duct obstruction, pancreatic cancer, kidney disease, salivary gland inflammation, bowel obstruction, and other pancreatic diseases. Decreased levels may indicate permanent damage to lipase-producing cells in the pancreas. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring lipase activity are very desirable. This Lipase Assay is based on an improved dimercaptopropanol tributyrate (BALB) method, in which SH groups formed from lipase cleavage of BALB react with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) to form a yellow colored product. The color intensity, measured at 412 nm, is proportionate to the enzyme activity in the sample.
