Detection principle

Fe3+ can be deoxidized to Fe2+ by VE with ferroin existing. Fe2+ can react with phenanthroline and form pink compound under certain condition. VE content can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 532 nm.

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 (0.09-40 μg/mL).

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

Sample type

Dilution factor

Human serum

1

Human plasma

1

10% Mouse liver tissue homogenization

1

Rat serum

1

Rat plasma

1

10% Carrot tissue homogenization

1

Note: The diluent is normal saline (0.9% NaCl) or PBS (0.01 M, pH 7.4).
