General description

Hemoglobin (Hb) is an iron-containing metalloprotein that serves as the primary means of oxygen transport in vertebrates. Hemoglobin is primarily found in red blood cells[1] where it makes up to 97% of the cell′s dry content. Hemoglobin can also be found in other tissues where it serves as an antioxidant. Alterations in blood hemoglobin levels occurs in many diseases such as anemia and polycytheima.[2][3]

Application

Hemoglobin Assay Kit has been used to measure the concentration of hemoglobin.[4][5]

Features and Benefits

Compatible with high-throughput handling systems. Can be adapted for use with cuvettes.

Suitability

Suitable for the detection of hemoglobinin a variety of samples such as blood, serum, plasma, and urine. This kit can be used to study the effects of various compounds on hemoglobin metabolism and levels.

Principle

This assay is based on the improved Triton™[NP1]/NaOH method in which hemoglobin is converted to a colorimetric product measured at 400 nm. This assay has a linear detection range between 0.9-200 mg/dL in the 96 well plate assay.

Legal Information

Triton is a trademark of The Dow Chemical Company or an affiliated company of Dow

Questions

1–4 of 4 Questions  

  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/449/386/product-dating-information-mk.pdf

  3. Is there stability information available for the Reagent (MAK115A) and Calibrator (MAK115B) included in the hemoglobin assay kit, especially after they are opened?

    1 answer

    1. The recommended storage for both components is at 2-8 degrees Celsius when not in use. Cycling the components between refrigerated and room temperature may decrease shelf life, but there is no predicted rate of degradation. For prolonged shelf life with frequent use, aliquoting the reagents into smaller tubes for individual use is advised.

  4. What specific items are included in this kit? Is there a standardized hemoglobin assay?

    1 answer

    1. There is a hemoglobin calibrator included with the kit, and the concentration of the sample is determined relative to the known concentration of the calibrator.
