Images

H Mu at al investigate the glucose metabolism that controlled human tumor immunosurveillance in diabetes. L-Lactate (L-LA) of cell supernatant was determined using L-lactate colorimetric assay kit (E-BC-K044-M).

Lactate secretion was significantly increased in HG group. (*P<0.05)

 

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 (0.12-7.0 mmol/L).

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

Sample type Dilution factor
Human serum 2-5
10% Rat kidney tissue homogenate 1-3
10% Rat brain tissue homogenate 1
HepG2 cell culture supernatant 1
HepG2 cells 1

 

Note: The diluent is normal saline (0.9% NaCl), PBS (0.01 M, pH 7.4).

 

Detection Principle

Using NAD+ as H+ receptor, LDH catalyzes the reaction of lactic acid and NAD+ to generate pyruvic acid and NADH respectively. NBT is reduced to a kind of purple compound during the reaction. Measure the OD value at 530 nm, and the concentration of lactic acid can be calculated.

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 (mmol/L) 0.50 2.10 4.60
%CV 1.8 1.2 1.2


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 (mmol/L) 0.50 2.10 4.60
%CV 3.1 3.4 4.0


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 105%.


Standard 1 Standard 2 Standard 3
Expected Conc. (mmol/L) 1.5 3.6 5.4
Observed Conc. (mmol/L) 1.6 3.7 5.7
Recovery rate (%) 106 103 106


Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.10 mmol/L. 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 (μmol/L) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Average OD 0.160 0.466 0.805 1.082 1.327 1.601 1.784 2.042
Absoluted OD 0.000 0.307 0.646 0.923 1.167 1.442 1.624 1.882
