Product Specification
| Usage | Required experimental equipment: 1. Microplate reader (450nm) 2. High-precision pipettes and pipette tips: 0.5-10uL, 5-50uL, 20-200uL, 200-1000uL 3. 37°C incubator 4. Distilled or deionized water Sample preparation and requirements: Tissue homogenization: Rinse the tissue with pre-chilled PBS (0.01M, pH 7.4) to remove residual blood (lysed red blood cells in the homogenate will affect the measurement results). Weigh and mince the tissue. Add the minced tissue to the appropriate volume of PBS (generally a 1:9 weight-to-volume ratio, e.g., 1g of tissue sample to 9mL of PBS. The specific volume can be adjusted according to experimental needs and recorded. It is recommended to add protease inhibitors to the PBS) in a glass homogenizer and grind thoroughly on ice. To further lyse tissue cells, the homogenate can be sonicated or repeatedly frozen and thawed. Finally, centrifuge the homogenate at 5000×g for 5-10 minutes, and collect the supernatant for analysis. Cell Lysis Buffer: Adherent cells should be gently washed with pre-chilled PBS, then trypsinized and harvested by centrifugation at 1000×g for 5 minutes. Suspension cells can be harvested directly by centrifugation. Collected cells should be washed three times with pre-chilled PBS and resuspended in 150-200 μL of PBS per 1×10^6 cells (it is recommended to add protease inhibitors to the PBS; if the cell count is very low, reduce the PBS volume appropriately). Disrupt the cells by repeated freezing and thawing or sonication. Centrifuge the extract at 1500×g for 10 minutes at 2-8°C, and collect the supernatant for analysis. Other biological fluids: Centrifuge at 1000xg for 20 minutes, remove the supernatant, and test. Pre-test preparation: 1. Remove the test kit from the refrigerator 10 minutes in advance and equilibrate to room temperature. 2. Prepare the standard gradient working solution: Add 1 mL of universal diluent to the lyophilized standard, let it stand for 15 minutes to completely dissolve, then gently mix (concentration is 10 ng/mL). Then dilute to the following concentrations: 10 ng/mL, 5 ng/mL, 2.5 ng/mL, 1.25 ng/mL, 0.625 ng/mL, 0.3125 ng/mL, 0.15625 ng/mL, and 0 ng/mL. Serial dilution method: Take seven EP tubes and add 500uL of universal diluent to each. Pipette 500uL of the 10ng/mL standard working solution into the first EP tube and mix thoroughly to make a 5ng/mL standard working solution. Repeat this procedure for subsequent tubes. The last tube serves as a blank well; there is no need to pipette liquid from the penultimate tube. See the figure below for details. 3. Preparation of biotinylated detection antibody working solution: Centrifuge the concentrated biotinylated antibody at 1000×g for 1 minute 15 minutes before use. Dilute the 100× concentrated biotinylated antibody to a 1× working concentration with universal diluent (e.g., 10uL concentrate + 990uL universal diluent). Prepare and use immediately. 4. Prepare the enzyme conjugate working solution: 15 minutes before use, centrifuge the 100× concentrated enzyme conjugate at 1000×g for 1 minute. Dilute the 100× concentrated HRP enzyme conjugate to a 1× working concentration with universal diluent (e.g., 10 μL of concentrate + 990 μL of universal diluent). Prepare immediately. 5. Prepare the 1× wash solution: Dispense 10 mL of 20× wash solution into 190 mL of distilled water (concentrated wash solution removed from the refrigerator may crystallize; this is normal. Allow to stand at room temperature until the crystals have completely dissolved before preparing). Procedure: 1. Remove the desired strips from the aluminum foil bag after equilibration at room temperature for 10 minutes. Seal the remaining strips in a ziplock bag and return to 4°C. 2. Sample addition: Add 100 μL of sample or standard of varying concentrations to the corresponding wells. Add 100 μL of universal diluent to the blank wells. Cover with a film and incubate at 37°C for 60 minutes. (Recommendation: Dilute the sample to be tested at least 1-fold with universal diluent before adding it to the ELISA plate. This will reduce the impact of matrix effects on the test results. The sample concentration should be multiplied by the corresponding dilution factor when calculating the final sample concentration. It is recommended to run replicates for all test samples and standards.) 3. Add Biotinylated Antibody: Remove the ELISA plate and discard the liquid without washing. Add 100 μL of Biotinylated Antibody Working Solution directly to each well. Cover with a film and incubate at 37°C for 60 minutes. 4. Wash: Discard the liquid and add 300 μL of 1x Wash Solution to each well. Let stand for 1 minute, shake off the wash solution, and pat dry on absorbent paper. Repeat this process three times (a plate washer can also be used). 5. Add Enzyme Conjugate Working Solution: Add 100 μL of Enzyme Conjugate Working Solution to each well. Cover with a film and incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes. 6. Washing: Discard the liquid and wash the plate five times as in step 4. 7. Adding substrate: Add 90 μL of substrate (TMB) to each well, cover with a sealing film, and incubate at 37°C in the dark for 15 minutes. 8. Adding stop solution: Remove the ELISA plate and add 50 μL of stop solution directly to each well. Immediately measure the OD value of each well at a wavelength of 450 nm. Calculating experimental results: 1. Calculate the average OD value of the standard and sample replicates and subtract the OD value of the blank well as a correction factor. Plot the standard curve of the four-parameter logistic function on double-logarithmic graph paper, with concentration as the horizontal axis and OD value as the vertical axis. 2. If the sample OD value is higher than the upper limit of the standard curve, dilute the sample appropriately and retest. Multiply the sample concentration by the corresponding dilution factor. |

| Theory | This kit uses a double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Sample, standard, biotin-labeled detection antibody, and HRP conjugate are sequentially added to microwells pre-coated with a thermogenin (UCP1) capture antibody. After incubation and washing, the sample is developed using the substrate TMB. TMB is converted to blue by peroxidase (HRP) catalysis and to yellow by acid. The color intensity is positively correlated with the thermogenin (UCP1) content in the sample. The absorbance (OD) is measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader to calculate the sample concentration. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Background | Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), also known as thermogenic protein and encoded by the UCP1 gene, is a mitochondrial carrier protein found in brown adipose tissue. It is used to generate heat through non-shivering thermogenesis and contributes quantitatively to offsetting heat loss in infants that would otherwise occur due to their high surface area-to-volume ratio. Its mediated heat production in brown fat uncouples the respiratory chain, allowing for rapid substrate oxidation at low ATP production rates. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| General Notes | 1. Strictly adhere to the specified incubation time and temperature to ensure accurate results. All reagents must be at room temperature (20-25°C) before use. Refrigerate reagents immediately after use. 2. Improper plate washing may result in inaccurate results. Ensure that all liquid in the wells is aspirated thoroughly before adding substrate. Do not allow the wells to dry out during incubation. 3. Remove any residual liquid and fingerprints from the bottom of the plate, as this will affect the OD value. 4. The substrate developer solution should be colorless or very light in color. Do not use substrate solution that has turned blue. 5. Avoid cross-contamination of reagents and specimens to prevent erroneous results. 6. Avoid direct exposure to strong light during storage and incubation. 7. Do not expose any reagents to bleaching solvents or the strong fumes emitted by bleaching solvents. Any bleaching agent will destroy the biological activity of the reagents in the kit. 8. Do not use expired products, and do not mix components with different product numbers and batches. 9. Recombinant proteins from sources other than the kit may not be compatible with the antibodies in this kit and will not be recognized. 10. If there is a possibility of disease transmission, all samples should be managed properly and samples and testing devices should be handled according to prescribed procedures. |

Great product - different than my prior ones though from same listing
Style: 7 in 1 【1 HDMI】, Style: 7 in 1 【1 HDMI】
I had this for years for my MacBook Pro because Apple thinks we don't need at least ONE usb port on the computer anymore...which is what it is. This thing works amazing, super fast, and does exactly what I need it to do.
***My hubby lost his, so I gave him mine and said I'd order another one for myself. This new version is a little smaller than my last one which I don't mind, didn't come with a little slide in protective case like the last two did which is a little sad, and there's a stupid sticker on it now when you get it that you need to be careful or it will leave the sticky crap all over it (like mine pictured 🤦🏼♀️) which I hate because now I have to deal with that. None of these things are deal breakers as it is a great product, I just wish it was the same as the last two I got since it was the exact same listing (clicked on it from prior purchase and says purchased two times) and didn't say it was an updated version of the product.

Quality product that serves my need!
Style: 7 in 1 【1 HDMI】, Style: 7 in 1 【1 HDMI】
I purchased this to accommodate my work from home set up and for the most part it does a good job. Whenever I turn my laptop on it gives me a message that it needs a little bit more powerful version. I am still able to use it probably would just not plug anything else into it. I work from home on average two days a week sometimes more and this comes in extremely handy to hook up my additional monitor, keyboard, mouse, and one additional item if I chose, so I like to buy anker brand as I know it’s reliable, and they stand behind their product. I have never had anything but good results with anker products. It is a great size for portability if I need to work from somewhere other than home, it’s super easy to use basically plug-in play. It does get a little warm. I’m sure the more things that are plugged into it would cause it to get warmer quicker overall I am happy with this product. It serves the purpose I bought it for.

My son was impressed
Style: 7 in 1 【1 HDMI】
Been working great. It’s fast and compatible with my Mac. Slim connection so that I can also plug in my external hard drive. Plus, my son was impressed that I got Anker. I’ll be honest, I don’t know companies, but he said I got a good one.

Great for work
Style: 7 in 1 【1 HDMI】
I bought this to use with my MacBook for work, and it’s been a really useful all-in-one hub. One of the biggest advantages is not having to carry separate adapters for HDMI, USB devices, and SD cards. It makes it much easier to connect everything I need at my desk or when working away from home.
The HDMI connection worked well with an external monitor, and the USB ports have been useful for keyboard/mouse and flash drives. The pass-through charging is also a big plus since it lets me keep my MacBook powered while still expanding the number of ports available. That makes a big difference if your MacBook already has limited ports to begin with.
I also like that it’s compact and easy to keep in a laptop bag, so it works well for both a desk setup and travel. It can get a little warm during longer use, but that seems pretty normal for a small hub doing multiple things at once. Overall, this has been a helpful and convenient accessory for turning a MacBook into a more practical work setup.
