CheKine™ Micro Hydroxyproline (HYP) Content Detection Kit

HYP is one of the main components of collagen in the body. Most of the collagen is distributed in the skin, tendon, cartilage and blood vessels et al. Therefore, the content of HYP is an important index reflecting the metabolism and fibrosis degree of collagen tissue. CheKine TM Micro Hydroxyproline (HYP) Content Assay Kit can be used to detect biological samples such as animal tissue, bacteria or cells, serum or plasma. In the kit, the sample is hydrolyzed to produce free HYP, which is further oxidized by chloramine T. The oxidized product reacted with p-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde to produce red compound with characteristic absorption peak at 560 nm. The content of HYP can be calculated by measuring the absorption value of sample hydrolysate at 560 nm.

Storage at ４°C and Keep from light immediately upon receipt. Kit has a storage time of 6 months from receipt. Refer to list of materials supplied for storage conditions of individual components.

• If not assayed immediately, samples can be stored at -80°C for one month.• It is recommended to perform several dilutions of your sample to ensure the readings are within the standard value range.• Fresh samples are necessary for good results. If don't perform the assay at the same time, it's better to complete the Sample Preparation step before storing the samples.
