General Malondialdehyde (MDA) ELISA Kit

Adam Bownik 1, Barbara Pawlik-Skowrońska 2 Effects of cyanobacterial oligopeptides: anabaenopeptin-B, aeruginosin-98B and their mixture on oxidative stress biomarkers, HSP70 production and tyrosine phosphatase activity in three aquatic invertebrate species: Brachionus calyciflorus, Thamnocephalus platyurus and Chironomus aprilinus Environ Toxicol Pharmacol, (2025)

This assay employs the competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with MDA. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells then with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to MDA. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of MDA in the samples is then determined by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
