- Specificity
- Specific for nitrite determination in plasma samples.
- Characteristics
- The overproduction of nitric oxide may lead to oxidative and nitrosative stress. It has been demonstrated that they enhance the development of a variety of diseases, as well as the ageing process1. Regarding nitrosative stress, high levels of iNOS have be

- Assay Procedure
-
Standard Preparation: Prepare the calibrate in 1 mL tubes following the Table 1 ( see in booklet) . Use ultrapure water as diluent. Performing the assay: 1. Add 50 μL of samples or standards in each well (96-well plate). 2.Add 50 μL of Reagent A in each well. Incubate for 10 minutes protected from light. 3.Add 50 μL of Reagent B in each well. Incubate for 10 minutes protected from light. 4.Read the absorbance at 540 nm within 30 minutes.
- Calculation of Results
-
Determine average absorbance value of each experimental sample. Determine its concentration by comparison to the Nitrite Standard reference curve (Figure 2 see images). Nitrite (μM) = (?A540nm- intercept)/ slope
