Note: metal chelators (e.g. EDTA) interfere with this assay and should be avoided in sample preparation.
Procedure using 96-well plate:
1. Standards: transfer 100 µL dH2O into one Eppendorf tube labeled Blank. Into another tube labeled Standard, mix 20 µL1.5 mg/dL Standard and 80 µL dH2O (final 300 µg/dL Cu 2+ ). Samples: transfer 100 µL samples into separate tubes. Add 35 µL Reagent A (trichloroacetic acid) to each tube and mix by vortexing. If samples contain protein (e.g. serum/plasma), precipitates form. Centrifuge tubes for 2 min at 14,000 rpm and use clear supernatant for assay. For samples that do not contain protein, the mixture remains clear and centrifugation is not necessary. Transfer 100 µL Blank, Standard and Sample into separate wells of a clear flat-bottom 96-well plate.
2. For each assay well, prepare Working Reagent by mixing 5 µL Reagent B and 150 µL Reagent C. Transfer 150 µL Working Reagent to each well and tap plate to mix thoroughly.
3. Incubate 5 min at room temperature and read optical density at 356- 362nm (peak absorbance at 359nm). Note: if sample OD values are higher than the OD value for the 300µg/dL Standard, dilute sample in dH2O and repeat assay. Multiply the results by the dilution factor.
Procedure using cuvette: Prepare standards and samples as for 96-well assay procedure.
1. Transfer 400 µL Standards and Samples into separate cuvets.
2. Add 600 µL Working Reagent. Mix by pipetting.
3. Incubate 5 min at room temperature and read optical density at 356-362nm (peak absorbance at 359nm). - 限制

Quantitative determination of copper(II) ion Cu2+ at 359nm.
Procedure: 10 min.
Copper is an essential trace element. Copper-containing enzymes play important roles in iron and catecholamine metabolism, free radical scavenging, and in the synthesis of hemoglobin, elastin and collagen. Copper is mainly present in caeruloplasmin in the liver. Low levels of copper have been associated with mental retardation, depigmentation, anaemia, hypotonia and scorbutic changes in bone. Levels of copper are key diagnostic indicator of diseases such as Wilson's disease, microcytic hypochromic anaemia and bone disease due to reduced collagen synthesis. Simple, direct and automation-ready procedures for measuring copper concentrations find wide applications in research, drug discovery and environmental monitoring. This copper assay kit is designed to measure copper with no or minimal sample treatment. The improved method utilizes a chromogen that forms a colored complex specifically with copper ions. The intensity of the color, measured at 359nm, is directly proportional to copper concentration in the sample. The optimized formulation substantially reduces interference by substances in the raw samples.
