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.

Images

The iron levels in A549 cells were significantly increased after treatment with BPQDs. (*P<0.05, **P<0.01)

F Ruan et al investigate the nanotoxicological assessment of Black Phosphorus Quantum Dots (BPQD). Iron (Fe) level in lung A549 cells were determined using iron colorimetric assay kit (E-BC-K139-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 (0.29-10 mg/L).

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

Sample type

Dilution factor

Human serum

1

Mouse serum

1

10% Mouse liver tissue homogenate

1

10% Rat kidney tissue homogenate

1

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