Detection Principle
Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is one of the inverters in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and plays an important role in energy metabolism, amino acid and vitamin synthesis. The cofactors of this enzyme include two kinds of NAD+ and NADP+, which are located in different parts of the cell respectively. In eukaryotic cells, NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase mainly exists in mitochondria. Under the activation of the activator, IDH converts isocitrate into α-ketoglutaric acid. Meanwhile, NAD+ is reduced to NADH, which under the action of hydrogen transmitter, transfer electrons to WST-8 to produce the yellow product. The activity of NAD-IDH can be calculated by measuring the change of absorbance value at 450 nm.

Technical Data:
Parameter:
Intra-assay Precision
Three rat kidney 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/L) | 2.60 | 18.40 | 38.50 |
%CV | 5.4 | 4.9 | 4.7 |
Inter-assay Precision
Three rat kidney 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/L) | 2.60 | 18.40 | 38.50 |
%CV | 8.2 | 9.4 | 8.2 |
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 98%.
Standard 1 | Standard 2 | Standard 3 | |
Expected Conc. (mmol/L) | 0.25 | 0.52 | 0.88 |
Observed Conc. (mmol/L) | 0.2 | 0.5 | 0.9 |
Recovery rate (%) | 94 | 98 | 99 |
Sensitivity
The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.84 U/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 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 0.6 | 0.8 | 0.9 | 1 |
Average OD | 0.077 | 0.185 | 0.255 | 0.316 | 0.428 | 0.544 | 0.616 | 0.679 |
Absoluted OD | 0 | 0.108 | 0.178 | 0.239 | 0.351 | 0.467 | 0.539 | 0.602 |
