Assessing Rat Group III mGluR Activity

Cited 6 times

Compound activity at the rat group III mGluRs was assessed using thallium flux through GIRK channels, a method that has been described in detail in (Niswender et al., 2008 ). These cell lines were grown in Growth Media containing 45% DMEM, 45% F-12, 10% FBS, 20 mM HEPES, 2 mM L-glutamine, antibiotic/antimycotic non-essential amino acids, 700 μg/ml G418, and 0.6 μg/ml puromycin at 37°C in the presence of 5% CO2. Briefly, mGluR4, 7 or 8 GIRK cells were plated into 384 well, black-walled, clear-bottom poly-D-lysine coated plates at a density of 15,000 cells/20 μl/well in Plating Medium and incubated overnight at 37°C in the presence of 5% CO₂. The following day, the medium from the cells and 20 μl/well of 1.7 μM concentration of the indicator dye BTC-AM (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) in Assay Buffer was added. Cells were incubated for 1 h at room temperature and the dye was replaced with 20 μl/well of Assay Buffer. For these assays, compounds were added at 2x final concentration and then 2.5 min later either an EC₂₀ or EC₈₀ concentration of glutamate (mGluR4, 8) or L-AP4 (mGluR7) was added using the FDSS 6000. Agonists were diluted in thallium buffer (125 mM sodium bicarbonate, 1 mM magnesium sulfate, 1.8 mM calcium sulfate, 5 mM glucose, 12 mM thallium sulfate, 10 mM HEPES) at 5x the final concentration to be assayed. Five frames of data were collected (excitation, 470±20 nm emission, 540±30 nm) at ½ Hz prior to compound addition. Data collection continued at ½ Hz until 10 seconds prior to agonist addition, when the rate was increased to 1 Hz for 2 min after agonist addition. Data were analyzed as described in (Niswender et al., 2008 ).

Encapsulating Cells in Alginate Hydrogels

Cited 5 times

Cells in flasks were trypsinized using 0.05% trypsin/EDTA (Invitrogen), washed once in serum free DMEM, and resuspended in serum free media at 10X the final concentration. The concentration of the cells was determined using a Coulter counter (Beckman Coulter). Cells were then mixed well with alginate, also reconstituted in serum free DMEM using luerlock syringes (Cole-Parmer) and a female-female luerlock coupler (Value-plastics). The cell-alginate solution was then rapidly mixed with DMEM containing the appropriate concentration of calcium sulfate, and then deposited between two glass plates spaced 1 mm apart. The solutions were allowed to gel for 45 minutes, and then disks of hydrogel were punched out and transferred to well plates where they were immersed in media.

Pineapple Litter Composting with Aspergillus

The research used a single factor Completely Randomized Design (CRD), as a treatment that is the difference in the composition of compost materials arranged in 6 levels: KP1; KP2; KP3; P1; P2, and P3. Each treatment was carried out in 3 repetitions; hence it obtained 18 experimental units [19] .
The stages involved were:
(1) Inoculum development,
(2) Inoculum application in pineapple litter composting.
Inoculum development was made using modification of Gaind et al. method [20] (link). Corn grains were used as substitute for fungal strain growth. The corn grains were finely ground and sifted before it was mixed with 4% calcium sulphate, and 2% calcium carbonate (in 1 L distilled water). A loopful of Aspergillus sp. culture was inoculated in each 100 g corn grains added with 25 mL of solutions (sterilized at 15 lb pressure for 1 h) and incubated at 25 °C for 15 days. Each strain's whole growth, including mycelium, spores, and the grains, was used as the inoculum. The inoculum was counted for the number of spores and viability by calculating CFUs [18] .
Composting was carried out by modifying the Takakura Home Method (THM) [21] , for 7 weeks. The composting process was carried out in a perforated basket with a lid. Basket was lined with cardboard to keep the conditions moist when composting. Next, compost materials were put in the basket and add with Aspergillus sp inoculum.
The composition of raw materials were pineapple leaf, stem litters and mixture of both created into 6 treatments (KP1, KP2, KP3, P1, P2, and P3; K = treatments without inoculum), as the following details,
KP1 = pineapple leaf litter:cow manure (2:1)
KP2 = pineapple stem litter:cow manure (2:1)
KP3 = pineapple leaf litter:pineapple stem litter:cow manure (1:1:1)
P1 = pineapple leaf litter:cow manure (2:1) + 1% inoculum (30 g)
P2 = pineapple stem litter:cow manure (2:1) + 1% inoculum (30 g)
P3 = pineapple leaf litter: pineapple stem litter: cow manure (1:1:1) + 1% inoculum (30 g)
The compost quality testing was carried out by analyzing the levels of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and C/N ratio. Total organic carbon was determined using wet digestion method [22] (link). Nitrogen totals were calculated by the Kjeldahl method [23] . Phosphorus was measured by a spectrophotometer using phosphomolybdate blue method [24] (link). Potassium was measured by a flame photometer.
