Protein Carbonyl ELISA
An ELISA based on the reaction of protein carbonyls with
dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNP) and detection with an antibody against DNP.
This assay is available in kit form, marketed by our partners, BioCell
Corporation. Details on the kit and information about purchasing are
available on the BioCell web site.
Kit Developed By:
I. Hendrikje Buss, Christine C. Winterbourn and co-workers at the Free Radical
Research Group, Christchurch School of Medicine and Health Sciences (University of Otago), Christchurch, New Zealand.

Neutrophil Killing Assay
Rates of bacterial phagocytosis and killing by neutrophils
can be calculated using straightforward mathematical analyses of data
obtained according to Journal of Immunological Methods
232 (1999) 15-22 and Green et al. in
chapter 21, Methods in Molecular Biology – Neutrophil
methods and protocols (2006).
An Excel file to carry out these calculations and instructions for
use can be downloaded (45 Kb
zip file). Any queries,
please contact Mark
Hampton.
