General description

The Cell Death Detection ELISA serves as photometric enzyme immunoassay for the qualitative and quantitative in vitro determination of cytoplasmic histone-associated DNA fragments (mono- and oligonucleosomes) after induced cell death. This assay is based on the quantitative sandwich-enzyme immunoassay-principle using mouse monoclonal antibodies directed against DNA and histones, respectively. The antibodies used are not species specific.

Specificity

Anti-histone antibody reacts with the histones H1, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 of various species (e.g., human, mouse, rat, hamster, cow, opossum, and Xenopus). Anti-DNA-POD antibody binds to ss- and dsDNA. Therefore, the ELISA allows the detection of mono- and oligonucleosomes from various species, and may be applied to measure apoptotic cell death in many different cell systems.

Application

Cell Death Detection ELISA has been used to measure Caspase-3 activity, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell apoptosis.
For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Specific determination of mono- and oligonucleosomes in the cytoplasmic fraction of cell lysates.

Packaging

1 kit containing 9 components.

Preparation Note

Working solution: Coating solution
Predilute 1 ml Coating buffer conc. with 9 ml double dist. water. Shortly before use, dilute 1 ml anti-histone antibody (reconstituted) with 9 ml Coating buffer.

Washing solution
Warm the Washing buffer concentrate to 15 to 25 °C and dilute 40 ml in 360 ml double distilled water. Mix thoroughly.

Sample solution
Preparation of the sample solution depends on the cell system used and the extent of cell death.
Example: Dilute 25 μl of sample in 225 μl Incubation buffer.

Conjugate solution
Dilute 1 ml Anti-DNA-POD (reconstituted) with 9 ml Incubation buffer.

Substrate solution
Depending on the number of samples tested, dissolve 1, 2, or 3 tablets in 5, 10, or 15 ml Substrate buffer.
Allow to come to 15 to 25 °C before use.
Note: The ABTS solution is light sensitive over extended periods of time.

Paracetamol is an analgesic commonly used by people of all ages, which is well documented to cause severe hepatotoxicity with acute overexposures. The risk of hepatotoxicity from nonacute paracetamol exposures is less extensively studied, and this is the exposure most

Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is mediated by proliferation and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Because heavy chain-hyaluronic acid/pentraxin 3 (HC-HA/PTX3) purified from human amniotic membrane exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-scarring actions, we hypothesized that HC-HA/PTX3 could inhibit these
