Dilution of Sample

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

Sample type Dilution factor
10% Mouse liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat brain tissue homogenate 1
10% Mouse kidney tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat liver tissue homogenate 1
10% Rat heart tissue homogenate 1
1
10% Rat kidney tissue homogenate 1
Human serum 1
Human plasma 1-3

 

Note: The diluent is PBS (0.01 M, pH 7.4). For the dilution of other sample types, please do pretest to confirm the dilution factor.

 

Detection Principle

Glutamine is decomposed to produce glutamic acid under the action of glutaminase. Glutamic acid is further transformed by glutamic acid dehydrogenase. 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 glutaminase can be calculated by measuring the change of absorbance value at 450 nm.

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 (U/L) 0.26 2.80 13.50
%CV 5.4 5.2 4.7


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 (U/L) 0.26 2.80 13.50
%CV 8.2 7.9 8.8


Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity of the assay is 0.003 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 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.45 0.5
Average OD 0.067 0.175 0.224 0.298 0.423 0.535 0.577 0.625
Absoluted OD 0.000 0.108 0.158 0.231 0.357 0.468 0.511 0.559
