| Description: | Factor Xa (human or rat): In the assay for measuring the inhibition of human or rat factor Xa activity, Tris-HCl buffer (50 mM, pH 8.3, 150 mM NaCl) is used. The IC50 is measured by adding dropwise the assay buffer of 50 μL human Factor Xa (Enzyme Research Laboratories, Inc; the final concentration of 8.36 nM) or 50 μL rat Factor Xa (Enzyme Research Laboratories, Inc; the final concentration of 57.5 nM) to the appropriate wells of a Greiner 384 microtiter plate. 2 μL the assay buffer containing 2% (V/V) DMSO (uninhibited control) or various concentrations of the compounds to be tested is diluted in the assay buffer containing 2% (V/V) DMSO, and add the assay buffer of 48 μL substrate S-2222 (Chromogenix; chemical formula: Bz-Ile-Glu(γ-OR)-Gly-Arg-pNA.HCl R═H (50%) and R═CH3 (50%)), the final concentration is 0.172 mM. The assay is performed by pre-incubating the tested compounds with enzyme for 10 min, and then the assay is initiated by adding substrate S-2222 to obtain a final volume of 100 μL. |
