ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
Indonesian Journal of Life Sciences
The experiment used rice, roasted coffee beans, dried nutmeg, and
corn as the selected foodstuffs samples. Additionally, distilled water was also
needed as the materials of this experiment. The equipment that were used
were safety gloves, scale, laboratory mill/mortar, centrifuge, horizontal
shaker, vortex, graduated cylinder 100 mL, micropipettes,
spectrophotometer (450 nm).
Sample Preparation
Test Procedure
Indonesian Journal of Life Sciences
All standards and samples were inserted into the microwell holder that
has been inserted with wells and run in duplications. The placement of each
sample was recorded to ensure no mistakes in the interpretation. 50 µL of
each standard and samples were pipetted in duplications into the according
wells. Afterwards, 50 µL of conjugate were added into each well and was
mixed gently by shaking the plate manually, followed by an incubation for 30
minutes at room temperature in the dark. The liquid of the wells were then
poured out and taped upside down vigorously on absorbent paper ensuring
removal of liquid from the wells and this washing step is run for 3 times. All
the wells were then filled with a 250 µL wash buffer and then the flow
through was poured out similarly to the previous step. Each well was then
added with 100 µL of substrate/chromogen and was shaken manually to
evenly homogenize the solution. After mixing gently, it was incubated for 15
minutes at room temperature in the dark. In order to finish the process, 100
µL of stop solution were added into each well and mixed gently again using
the plate and measured out the absorbance at 450 nm. The reading was
done 15 minutes after the addition of the stop solution.
