* Ceruloplasmin activity is based upon the published determination by G. Curzon and L.Vallet, Biochem. J., 1960, 74:279-287.
The definition of a unit of activity was arbitrarily defined as the ac- tivity of an amount of ceruloplasmin giving an OD of 0.10 at 550nm under their defined conditions.
The activity of our standard is determined using the Curzon and Vallet method.

Information d'application

Indications d'application: Optimal working dilution should be determined by the investigator.

Protocole: A human ceruloplasmin standard is provided to generate a standard curve for the as- say and all samples should be read off of the standard curve.
Samples are diluted in the provided Assay Buffer and added to the wells of a half area clear plate.
The reconstituted Ceruloplasmin Substrate is added and the plate is incubated at 30 °C for 60 minutes.
The ceruloplasmin in the standards and samples reacts with the substrate to produce a colored product.
The optical den- sity is read at 560 nm.
Increasing levels of ceruloplasmin in the samples causes an increase in the fuchsia (pink-purple) product.
The activity of the ceruloplasmin in the sample is calculated after making a suitable correction for any dilution, using software available with most plate readers.
The results are expressed in terms of milliunits (mU) of ceruloplasmin activity per mL.
Ceruloplasmin activity is based upon the published determination by G.
Curzon and L.
Vallet, Biochem.
J., 1960, 74:279-287.
Due to our optimized reagents and incubation times the optical density generated by 1 U/mL of ceruloplasmin is substantially higher than 0.1 OD.

Préparation des réactifs:

Allow the kit reagents to come to room temperature for 30-60 minutes.
We recommend that all standards and samples be run in duplicate to allow the end user to accurately determine Cerulo- plasmin activities.
Ensure that all samples have reached room temperature and have been diluted as appropriate prior to running them in the kit.
Assay Buffer Dilute Assay Buffer Concentrate 1:5 by adding one part of the concentrate to four parts of deion- ized water.
Once diluted this is stable at 4 °C for 3 months.
Standard Preparation New Standard Range Standards are prepared by labeling seven tubes as #1 through #7.
Add 995 μL of Assay Buffer to tube #1.
Pipet 300 μL of Assay Buffer into tubes #2 to #6.
Carefully add 5 μL of the Ceruloplasmin Stock from the vial to tube #1 and vortex completely.
Take 300 μL of the Cp solution in tube #1 and add it to tube #2 and vortex completely.
Repeat the serial dilutions for tubes #3 through #6.

Use all Standards within 2 hours of preparation.

Préparation de l'échantillon:

Serum and Urine Samples Serum and urine samples should be diluted at least 1:20 fold in the Assay Buffer supplied. 7 Allow the kit reagents to come to room temperature for 30-60 minutes. We recommend that all standards and samples be run in duplicate to allow the end user to accurately determine Cerulo- plasmin activities. Ensure that all samples have reached room temperature and have been diluted as appropriate prior to running them in the kit. Assay Buffer Dilute Assay Buffer Concentrate 1:5 by adding one part of the concentrate to four parts of deion- ized water. Once diluted this is stable at 4 °C for 3 months. Standard Preparation Standards are prepared by labeling seven tubes as #1 through #7. Add 995 µL of Assay Buffer to tube #1. Pipet 300 µL of Assay Buffer into tubes #2 to #7. Carefully add 5 µL of the Ceruloplasmin Stock from the vial to tube #1 and vortex completely. Take 600 µL of the Cp solution in tube #1 and add it to tube #2 and vortex completely. Re- peat the serial dilutions for tubes #3 through #7. The ceruloplasmin activity in tubes 1 through 8 will be 5, 3.33, 2.22, 1.48, 0.988, 0.658, and 0.439 U/mL.

The solution can also be stored at -20 °C for up to the expiration date on the kit label.
Samples that need to be stored after collection should be stored at -70 °C or lower,preferably after being frozen in liquid nitrogen. This kit should be stored at -20 °C until the expiration date of the kit. Once opened the kit can be stored at 4 °C up to the expiration date on the kit label, except for the Cerulo- plasmin Standard and reconstituted Ceruloplasmin Substrate, which must be stored at -20 °C.

Procédure de l'essai:

Use the plate layout sheet on the back page to aid in proper sample and standard identification. Set plate parameters for a 96-well Corning Costar 3695 plate. See: http://www.ArborAssays.com/resources/lit.asp for plate dimension data.
1. Pre-warm incubator to 30 °C.
2. Pipet 100 μL of diluted samples or appropriate standards into duplicate wells in the plate.
3. Pipet 100 μL of Assay Buffer into duplicate wells as the Zero standard.
4. Add 25 μL of the reconstituted Cp Substrate solution to each well using a repeater pipet.
5. Incubate at 30 °C for 60 minutes.
6. Read the optical density generated from each well in a plate reader capable of reading at 560 nm. NOTES 37 °C Incubation Incubation at 37 °C will increase the optical density of the reaction by about 44 % . Room Temperature Incubation Incubation at room temperature (~21-23 °C) will decrease the optical density of the reaction by about 50 %. This measurement was made with room temperature at 22.3 °C.

Calcul des résultats:

Average the duplicate OD readings for each standard and sample.
Create a standard curve by reducing the data using the 4PLC fitting routine on the plate reader, after subtracting the mean OD for the zero standard.
The sample activity obtained should be multiplied by the dilution factor to obtain neat sample values.

Sujet: Ceruloplasmin (Cp) is a multicopper oxidase enzyme involved in the safe handling of oxygen in some metabolic pathways of vertebrates. Discovered in 1948, a blue protein from the a2-globulin fraction of human serum possessing oxidase activity towards aromatic diamines and catechol was purified by Holmberg and Laurell1. It was denoted ceruloplasmin, literally meaning 'a blue substance from plasma'. Specialized copper sites have been recruited during evolution to provide long-range electron transfer reactivity and oxygen binding and activation in proteins destined to cope with oxygen reactivity in different organisms. Ceruloplasmin belongs to the family of multi- copper oxidases which are among the few enzymes able to bind molecular oxygen to perform its complete reduction to water2,3. Ceruloplasmin contains 95 % of the copper in serum4. Cp found in serum is expressed in the liver, but it is also expressed in the brain, lung, spleen and testis. Aceruloplasminaemia is an autosomal recessive disorder of iron metabolism characterized by the complete absence of ceruloplasmin5,6. The role of Cp in tissue iron overload and the subsequent clinical findings of diabetes, retinal degeneration and neurodegeneration has been associated with iron overload in aceruloplasminaemic patients7. Thus it is clearly indicated that ceruloplasmin plays an essential role in iron metabolism. Ceruloplasmin is also associated with reproduction. Copper-deficient female rats seem to be protected against mortality. This protection has been suggested to be provided by estrogens, since estrogens alter the subcellular distribution of cop- per in the liver, an increase in plasma copper levels and subsequent ceruloplasmin synthesis8
