Descripción general

Collagen is the key structural protein of connective tissue and the most abundant protein in mammals. It occurs in many different types and forms with Types I -V being the most common. Aside from the crucial role it plays in the body, it has numerous medical applications such as its use in reconstructive surgery including bone and skin grafts. It is also commonly used in cosmetics due to its anti-aging and skin healing properties.

Aplicación

The Collagen Assay Kit may be used for:
  • Bone Disorder Research
  • Dermatological Research
  • Wound Healing and Tissue Repair Research


Características y beneficios

Enhanced Detection Range: Detect Collagen levels accurately across a wide range, from 2 µg/mL to 50 µg/mL, using only 20 μL of sample in a 96-well plate setup, ensuring highly sensitive analysis with minimal sample requirement.

Compatibility with High-Throughput Systems: Easily incorporate our kit into high-throughput handling systems, ensuring smooth and accurate processing, enhancing efficiency in your laboratory workflow.

Idoneidad

Suitable for biological samples (e.g. plasma, serum, cells) and cosmetic samples (e.g. collagen solution)

Principio

Assay methods available for quantifying collagen currently range from needing extensive hydrolysis procedures with acids and bases to using expensive antibodies and complicated protocols. The collagen assay kit delivers a very simple, safe (non-radioactive), and sensitive method to quantify collagen in samples. In the first step of this procedure, collagen in the sample is enzymatically digested into peptides. Subsequently, the N-terminal glycine containing peptides react with the dye reagent to form a fluorescent complex. The fluorescence intensity of this product, measured at λex/em = 375/465 nm, is directly proportional to collagen concentration in the sample.

Questions

1–7 of 7 Questions  
  1. 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.

  2. 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

  5. Would the MAK322 Collagen Assay Kit be suitable for use with whole cell lysates containing RIPA buffer?

    1 answer
    1. No tests have been conducted on the effect of RIPA on this assay. It is believe that RIPA-treated cell lysates should be compatible with the kit, as long as they do not contain chelation agents such as EDTA. However, they discourage the use of chelators because the collagenase used in the assay requires calcium as a cofactor.

  6. Will the assay work if the samples to be dosed are either or both pH’s, and do they have to be neutralized? If so, to what pH (from both extremes)? Also, Does the collagen standard also have to be blanked?

    1 answer
    1. 1. The samples should be neutralized before assaying. The assay buffer is around pH 7.5, so it is recommended that samples be neutralized to around pH 7 to 8.
      2. The collagen standard does not have to be blanked. During calculation, standard 4 (only water) is subtracted from the other standards as a blank.

  7. Is this kit compatible with cell lysates in detergent buffers (ex. RIPA buffer)?

    1 answer
    1. The compatibility of RIPA in this assay has not been evaluated. However, no interference is anticipated. The use of any additional chelating agents, such as EDTA, are not recommended and will negatively impact results.
