= '''3,5-dinitorosalicylic acid assay(DNS method)''' =
 
-
 
-
This assay is based on this fact: 3,5-dinitorosalicylic acid (DNS) is changed into 3-amino- 5-nitorosalicylic acid by reducing saccharide in reaction solution and the absorbance of this liquid increase in direct proportion to the amount of reducing sugar.

-
To carry out this assay, we will be required following three things, that is,
 
-
*the relationsip to reducing sugar concntration and absorbance 550
 
-
*the assesment of effect of E.coli in media
 
-
*the effect of chitinase

===Procedure===
 
-
DNS method
 
-
We examined the quantitative relation between absorbance and the volume of sugar and then expressed it onto a straight line graph (result fig 1:リンク).
 
-
 
-
We led E.coli introduced chitinase gene had secreted disassemble chitin into N-acetylglucosamine and other sugar derivatives in water.
 
-
After passing enough time (_min), we added this liquid 0.2 ml into DNS reagent 0.6 ml (<html><a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:Kyoto/Protocol">How to prepare</a></html>) and boiled this solution for 5 min. After cooling this soluion, We diluted with water to 5 ml and assay the absorbance in 550 nm.
 
-
 
-
The results of this measurement and the fig 1 graph enabled us to calculate the amount of digested chitin, showing the relative activity of chitinase.

1-1:evaluate the affection of medium
 
-
 
-
we examined the interruption based on the components of media(SOC, plas-grow and M9)

-
Sample  media(with antibiotic)
 
-
 
-
Blank    distilled water
 
-
 
-
Reagent  DNS
 
-
 
-
#added 240㎕ DNS reagent to 80㎕sample
 
-
#heated it for 5 min in boiling water and then cooled it in water.
 
-
#added it distilled water by 2ml
 
-
#measured absorbance in 550nm
 
-
 
-
 
-
1-2:measurement the effect of remainded E.coli
 
-
 
-
This assay was performed three times for each medium
 
-
   
 
-
#poured the medium cultured E.coli overnight 1.2 ㎕ into each five microcentritube.
 
-
#centrifuged them for 5 min at 5,000 rpm
 
-
#prepared new five microcentritube and move 800㎕ the supernatants into each of them.
 
-
#measure the OD550 of one tube(use fresh medium as a blank in following assays)
 
-
#one hour after, we measured OD 550 of other tube
 
-
#take 80㎕ supernatant and move it into new tube and then heated it for 3 min in boiling water and then cooled it in water.
 
-
#added 240㎕ DNS reagent and heated it for 3 min in boiling water and then cooled it in water.
 
-
#two, three, five hours after, we did above operation, taking supernatant, measured OD500, heating and cooling, applying DNS reagent and heating and cooling again.
 
-
#added all sample tube (containing 320㎕ solution) distilled water by 2ml and measure the absorbance of them in 550nm.
