Cayman DHN-MA EIA Kit

Lipid peroxidation is a well-established mechanism of cellular injury in both plants and animals and is used as an indicator of oxidative stress in cells and tissues. Measurement of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), an aldehyde formed during the lipid peroxidation process, is one of several accepted biomarkers for lipid peroxidation. 1,4-Dihydroxynonane mercapturic acid (DHN-MA) is the major urinary metabolite of HNE present at physiological levels in rat and human urine. It can be measured without extraction and offers an alternative lipid peroxidation biomarker aside from 8-isoprostane or TBARS. This DHN-MA EIA Kit is a competitive assay that can be used for quantification of DHN-MA in urine samples. The EIA typically displays an IC₅₀ (50% B/B₀) of approximately 75 pg/mL and a detection limit (80% B/B₀) of approximately 10 pg/mL. [Bertin Catalog No. A05185]
