Dilution of Sample
It is recommended to take 2~3 samples with expected large difference to do pre-experiment before formal experiment. The sample can be detected by this kit when the protein content of samples is ranged from 1-10 mg/mL.
The recommended dilution factor for different samples is as follows (for reference only):
| Sample type | Dilution factor |
| Human serum | 8-10 |
| Mouse serum | 8-10 |
| 10% Rat liver tissue homogenization | 2-3 |
| 10% Mouse heart tissue homogenization | 1 |
| 10% Mouse brain tissue homogenization | 1 |
Note: The diluent is double distilled water or reagent 1.
Detection Principle
The content of protein carbonyl increased after oxidation, and the carbonyl group reacted with 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine to form a reddish brown precipitate. The absorbance can be measured at 370 nm after the precipitation is dissolved. The carbonyl content can be calculated indirectly.

Technical Data:
Parameter:
Intra-assay Precision
Three human serum 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 (nmol/mgprot) | 1.50 | 3.80 | 7.90 |
| %CV | 4.8 | 4.3 | 4.4 |
Inter-assay Precision
Three human serum samples were assayed 20 times in duplicate by three operators to determine precision between assays.
| Parameters | Sample 1 | Sample 2 | Sample 3 |
| Mean (nmol/mgprot) | 1.50 | 3.80 | 7.90 |
| %CV | 8.4 | 8.5 | 8.9 |
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. (nmol/mgprot) | 2.4 | 5.2 | 8.5 |
| Observed Conc. (nmol/mgprot) | 2.4 | 5.4 | 8.6 |
| Recovery rate (%) | 99 | 103 | 101 |
Sensitivity
The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.02 nmol/mgprot. 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.
