Detection principle

Uric Acid in protein-free filtrate reduce phosphotungstic acid to form tungsten blue, allantoin and carbon dioxide, the depth of blue color is proportional to the concentration of uric acid. Uric acid content can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 690 nm.

Dilution of sample

It is recommended to take 2~3 samples with expected large difference to do pre-experiment before formal experiment and dilute the sample according to the result of the pre-experiment and the detection range (1.30-80 mg/L).

The recommended dilution factor for different samples is as follows (for reference only):

Sample type

Dilution factor

Mouse serum

1-2

Rat serum

1

Human serum

1

Porcine serum

1

Dog serum

1-2

Human urine

8-10

Note: The diluent is normal saline (0.9% NaCl) or PBS (0.01 M, pH 7.4).
