Detection principle

Under the action of reductant, iron ions in samples can be reduced into ferrous ions (Fe2+). The latter then bind to probe and form complexes, which has a maximum absorption peak at 593 nm. The concentration of iron can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 593 nm indirectly.

Images

The increased iron content in 4T1 cells showed significantly difference between different treatments.

H Tian et al developed a targeted nanomodulator that can induced tumor cell ferroptosis. Iron (Fe) level in mouse tumor cells 4T1 were determined using total iron colorimetric assay kit (E-BC-K772-M).

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 (0.4-50 μmol/L).

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

Sample type

Dilution factor

Human serum

1

Mouse serum

1-2

Rat serum

1

10% Mouse liver tissue homogenate

2-3

10% Rat lung tissue homogenate

1

10% Mouse heart tissue homogenate

1

10% Rat spleen tissue homogenate

2-3

10% Epipremnum aureum leaf tissue homogenate
