| Description: | TDO: For testing, 24 μL of enzyme (TDO) was diluted 100 times with 50 mM KPB to 2400 μL. The concentration of the enzyme solution was 2.6 ng/μL. A 96 well reaction plate (AXYGEN, PCR-96-FLT-C) (hereinafter referred to as the reaction plate ) was added with the enzyme solution at 24 μL/well. The blank well was added with 24 μL of KPB [Preparation of KPB buffer (50 mM): 6.805 g of KH2PO4 was weighed using an analytical balance, and placed into a 1000 mL beaker, deionized water was added with a measuring cylinder to 900 mL, the pH was adjusted to 6.5 by 1M KOH, then the mixture was introduced into a 1 L measuring cylinder, and water was added to 1 L. It was stored at 4° C.]. Then, 1 μL of a compound or DMSO was added into the corresponding wells in the reaction plate. Preparation of solution A: 200 μL of 500 mM L-sodium ascorbate was added with 1050 μL of KPB, then the mixture was mixed uniformly for 3 seconds at the maximum speed in a turbine mixer. Solution B: 100 μL of 10 mM tryptophan was added with 100 μL of 100,000 unit/ml catalase, 5 μL of 10 mM methylene blue, and 1050 μL of KPB successively, then the mixture was mixed uniformly for 3 seconds at the maximum speed in a turbine mixer. Then, 1200 μL of solution A and 1200 μL of solution B were taken and mixed uniformly for 3 seconds at the maximum speed in a turbine mixer. The mixture was added to the reaction plate at 24 μL/well. The reaction plate was placed in a plate centrifuge and centrifuged for 15 seconds at the maximum speed, so that the reaction liquids converged to the bottom. The reaction mixture was mixed uniformly for 30 seconds on a shaker, and incubated for 1 hour at 37° C. in a constant temperature incubator. In the reaction plate, 30% (W/V) trichloroacetic acid was added at 10 μL/well, then the mixture was incubated for 15 minutes at 65° C. in a incubator. The reaction plate was centrifuged in a centrifuge for 5 minutes at 4700 RPM at room temperature. Then, 40 μL of the supernatant was transferred from the reaction plate to the corresponding 96 well test plate (Corning, #3599) by a multi-channel pipette. Then, 2% (W/V) 4-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde/glacial acetic acid solution was added at 40 μL/well, then the mixture was mixed uniformly for 1 minute on a shaker at the maximum speed. After incubation for 2 minutes at room temperature, the absorbance at 480 nm was read on a Synergy HT Reader. |
