Reagent Preparation

Note: All reagents are frozen. We
recommend you spin small vials before opening.

1. L-Lactate Assay Buffer(10x)

Note: Please don’t do dilution in
the provided L-Lactate Assay Buffer bottle itself.

The bottle contains 10ml of 10x
L-Lactate Assay Buffer. The assay buffer must be equilibrated to room
temperature before use. Please make appropriate amount of 1xL-Lactate Assay
Buffer for the assay, for example, by diluting 1ml of 10x L-Lactate Assay Buffer
with 9 ml of distilled water. Prepare additional diluted assay buffer if
needed. Store at -80°C.

2. L-Lactate Standard (10x)

Note: Please don’t do dilution in
the provided L-Lactate standard vial itself.

The vial contains 100µl of 1mM
L-Lactate Standard. The standard must be equilibrated to room temperature
before use. Dilute 100µl of 1mM L-Lactate Standard with 900µl of diluted
L-Lactate Assay Buffer to prepare a 100μM L-Lactate Standard. 1ml of diluted
standard is enough for making 3 standard curves if assayed in duplicate. Store
at -80°C.

3. Assay Probe

The vial contains 45μl of Assay
Probe. It is sufficient for 100 wells. The assay probe must be equilibrated to
room temperature before use. Protect from light. Store at -80°C.

4. L-Lactate Enzyme Mix

The vial contains 55μl of
L-Lactate Enzyme Mix. The enzyme mix must be thawed on ice before use. It is
sufficient for 100 wells. Store at -80°C.

Protocol

1. Sample Preparation

Blood, Serum, Plasma, other body
fluid, or cell culture supernatant can be measured directly by a series of
dilutions of the sample (1/2; 1/4; 1/8; …) to ensure the readings are within
the standard curve range. Your samples can be diluted with dH2O or diluted
L-Lactate Assay Buffer. However, keep in mind if samples (such as hemolyzed
serum/plasma) contain high level of lactate dehydrogenase capable of converting
lactate to pyruvate, it is important for the samples to be deproteinated.

Add 50μl of samples to each well.
We suggest that samples be assayed in duplicate.

Note:

If prepared samples are not
assayed the same day, store the samples at -80°C. If samples need to be
deproteinated, make sure to deproteinize the samples prior to storing them in
the freezer. The deproteinated samples will be stable for one month while
stored at -80°C. For frozen samples, dilutions of samples must be done right
before assaying.

2. Standard Curve Preparation

Add 50µl, 40µl, 30µl, 20µl, 10µl,
5µl, 1 µl, and 0µl of diluted L-Lactate Standard to each well, then adjust
volume to 50μl/well with diluted L-Lactate Assay Buffer.

We suggest that L-Lactate
Standards be assayed in duplicate. A standard curve has to be included with
samples in each assay.

3. Reaction Solution
Preparation

50μl Reaction Solution is
required for each well, and 1ml of Reaction Solution is prepared with the
followings:

982µlL-Lactate Assay Buffer(1x)

10µlL-Lactate Assay Enzyme Mix

8 µlAssay Probe

1ml of Reaction Solution is
enough for ~20 wells.

Prepare appropriate amount of
Reaction Solution for the number of assays to be performed.

Note: Please do not keep any
leftover Reaction Solution as it has to be made fresh right before you run
assays. If old Reaction Solution is used, assays will not work.

4. Perform the assay

a. Mix the reaction solution well
and add 50μl of the reaction solution to each well containing the L-Lactate
standards and test samples.

b. Incubate the reaction for 30
minutes in a 37°C incubator.

c. Measure absorbance at 570 nm
in a microplate reader.

5. Calculation

a. Average the OD570 nm values of
replicate wells of each L-Lactate Standard, test samples, and blank. Then,
correct background by subtracting the value derived from the blank from all
sample readings.

b. Make a standard curve by
plotting OD570 nm values from each L-Lactate Standards as a function of
L-Lactate concentration. This can be done with excel spreadsheet.

c. Calculate the value of
L-Lactate in samples using the equation obtained from the linear regression of
the standard curve.

L-Lactate(μM)= [ (Corrected
absorbance)-(y-intercept)]/Slope

What enzyme is used in this assay?

It is Lactate Oxidase.

What are the differences between L-Lactate Assay Kit I
and L-Lactate Assay Kit II?

Here are some differences between L-Lactate Assay Kit I and
L-Lactate Assay Kit II.

L-Lactate Assay Kit I

Standard Curve range: 50μM-3200μM

Enzyme used: L-LDH

Colorimetric reader compatible

Components: Assay Solution and Pre-serial diluted Standards

L-Lactate Assay Kit II

Standard Curve range: 2μM-100μM

Enzyme used: Lactate Oxidase

Colorimetric reader compatible

Components: Assay Buffer, Enzyme mix, Assay Probe, and Assay
standard

What are the compositions of this assay?

Unfortunately it is proprietary.

Do I need to make a standard curve every time?

Yes it is necessary since you calculate your sample
concentration based on the standard curve. Please do not use the representative
Lactate standard curve in the protocol to calculate concentrations of your
samples.

How much sample do I need for this assay?

End-users would have to perform an experiment to determine
optimal volume of samples whose readings fall within the standard curve range.

Can I use frozen samples?

Although it is better to use fresh samples for assays, you
can use frozen samples. If you are not using frozen samples in once, please
make aliquots of your samples before you put them in a freezer to prevent from
degrading samples from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

The protocol recommends measuring the absorbance at
570nm. Is 565nm close enough?

It is ok as long as you set up the absorbance between 560
and 580nm.

Why are my standard curve values different than the one
shown on the datasheet?

Many factors influence the values such as room temperature,
incubation time, handling, etc.

Are trial kits available?

Yes they are available for first time customers, however,
you will be responsible for shipping and handling fee. Please contact

for more details.
