    3. Sample preparation:
    1. Sample processing
    Sample homogenate:
    Tissue sample: The homogenate medium is reagent 1, centrifuge at 10000 × g at 4 °C for 10 minutes, take the supernatant, and retain part of the supernatant for protein concentration determination.
    Cell samples: After washing the cells with pre-cooled PBS (0.1 M, pH 7.4) on ice, take about 1.5 × 106 cells, add 0.4 mL of pre-cooled reagent-homogenate, centrifuge at 12000 × g for 10 minutes at 4 °C, take the supernatant, and retain part of the supernatant for protein concentration determination.
    Sample ultrafiltration:
    The homogenates of tissues and cells contain enzymes that can decompose NAD +. It is recommended that after sample extraction and centrifugation, the supernatant should be centrifuged in a 10 KD ultrafiltration tube at 4 °C and 10000 × g for 10 minutes to remove the decomposing enzymes.
    When measuring the total amount of NAD + and NADH, the supernatant of the sample to be tested after filtration by ultrafiltration tube is taken for direct measurement.
    If you want to measure the amount of NADH separately, take an appropriate amount of the sample to be measured and put the filtrate after ultrafiltration in an EP tube, take it in a water bath at 60 °C for 30 minutes, cool with running water and mix it well to be measured.
    2. Sample dilution
    Before formal testing, 2-3 samples with large expected differences need to be selected to dilute into different concentrations for pre-experiment. According to the results of pre-experiments, combined with the linear range of this kit: 0.02-5.0 μmol/L, please refer to the following table for dilution (for reference only):
    Sample Dilution factor Sample Dilution factor
    10% mouse muscle Not diluted 293T cells Not diluted
    10% mouse kidney tissue Not diluted Hela cells Not diluted
    Note: The diluent is reagent I
    4. Key points of the experiment:
    1. After each reagent powder is fully dissolved in 200μL of double-distilled water, it should be placed at 4 °C in the dark for 5 hours before use. Pay attention to preparation in advance.
    2. Try to use fresh samples for measurement. After freezing the samples, the measurement results will be reduced or the values will not be measured.
    3. The sample extract liquid is heated in a 60 °C water bath for 30 minutes to decompose NAD +. During this process, the EP tube must be sealed to prevent the liquid from volatilizing; After the heating is completed, due to the condensation of water vapor, it needs to be fully mixed before the next operation is carried out.
    5. Operation steps:
    1. Measurement well: Take 20μL of the sample to be tested and add it to the measurement well corresponding to the enzyme plate.
    Standard wells: Take 20μL of different concentration standards and add them to the corresponding standard wells of the enzyme label plate.
    2. Take 120μL of the reaction working solution and add it to the measurement well and standard well in step ①.
    3. Add 40μL of reagent three to the measurement well and standard well in ②.
    4. After vibrating the plate for 5 s and accurately incubating in a 37 °C incubator for 30 min, the OD value of each well was measured at a wavelength of 450 nm with a microplate reader.
    6. Operation table:
    Standard hole Measurement well
    Sample to be tested (μL) — 20
    Different concentration standards (μL) 20 —
    Reaction working solution (μL) 120 120
    Reagent III (μL) 40 40
    Vibrate the plate for 5 s, accurately incubate in a 37 °C incubator for 30 min, and measure the OD value of each well with a microplate reader at a wavelength of 450 nm.

    VII. Result calculation:
    Standard fit curve: y = ax + b
    Formula for calculating the total amount of NAD + and NADH in the sample:
    NADtotal (μmol/gprot) = (ΔA-b) ÷ a × f ÷ Cpr
    Formula for calculating NADH content in the sample:
    NADH (μmol/gprot) = (ΔA-b) ÷ a × f ÷ Cpr
    Calculation formula of NAD + content in sample:
    NAD + (μmol/gprot) = NADtotal-NADH
    Formula for calculating the ratio of NAD + to NADH in the sample:
    NAD + ⁄ NADH = (NADtotal-NADH)/NADH × 100%
    Notes:
    y: standard OD value − blank OD value (OD value when the standard concentration is 0)
    x: Concentration of standard
    A: slope of the standard curve
    b: Intercept of the standard curve
    ∆ A: measurement well OD value − blank well OD value (OD value when the standard concentration is 0)

    Synonym NAD+/NADH Colorimetric Assay Kit (WST-8)
    Description

    Inspection principle:
    Oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) are coenzymes that transfer electrons during redox reactions, and can be used as cofactors of many enzymes to participate in intracellular reactions.
    Determination of total NAD + and NADH:
    Ethanol produces acetaldehyde under the action of enzymes. During this reaction, NAD + is converted into NADH. NADH reduces WST-8 to produce an orange-yellow substance under the action of electron coupling reagent, with a maximum absorption peak around 450 nm. The amount of NAD + and NADH in the reaction sample of orange-yellow substance generated in the reaction system.
    The amount of NADH was determined alone:
    After the sample is extracted and heated in a water bath at 60 °C for 30 minutes, the NAD + in the sample will decompose and only NADH will be retained. NADH reduces WST-8 to produce a yellow substance, and the amount of NADH in the sample can be determined separately.
    Determination of NAD + and NAD +/NADH ratios:
    According to the total amount of NAD + and NADH obtained in the first two steps and the amount of NADH alone, the amount of NAD + in the sample and the ratio of NAD + to NADH can be obtained. During the above assay, due to the specificity of the enzyme reagent, NADP + and NADPH have no influence on the assay results.
    When testing samples with this kit, it is necessary to measure the total protein concentration. It is recommended to use our company's BCA kit (abs9232) for measurement.
