Detection principle

Under the action of acidic solution and reductant, ferric ions can be separated from transferrin in serum, and reduced into ferrous ions (Fe2+). The latter then bind to bipyridine and form pink complexes. The concentration of iron can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 520 nm indirectly.

The administration of Fe nanoparticle significantly increased the ferrous level in cells with dose dependent.

T Tong et al developed a novel ferrous sulfide nanoparticles for inhibiting porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus. Ferrous ion levels in cell were determined using ferrous ion colorimetric assay kit (E-BC-K304-S).

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 (0.08-50 mg/L).

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

Sample type

Dilution factor

Human plasma

1

Human serum

1

10% Rat liver tissue homogenate

1

10% Epipremnum aureum homogenate

1

Note: The diluent is double distilled water).
