Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra were recorded on a Bruker EMXplus (X-band) spectrometer equipped with an ER 4119HS cavity. The (composite) spectra were fitted and the radical concentration was determined using the quantitative EPR package of the Bruker Xenon software. The full procedure to determine thermodynamic data can be found in the ESI. To generate the radicals, 5% (v/v) di-tert-butyl peroxide was added to the solutions in benzene (with or without 10% v/v t-BuOH) under nitrogen and the EPR cavity irradiated with a Hamamatsu LC5 Hg–Xe lamp (150 W) via a 3.5 mm quartz light guide. REqEPR experiments with sulfonyl radicals were performed under continuous irradiation.

EPR Spectroscopy Protocol for Anaerobic Sample Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
EPR measurements were carried out on a Bruker EMX-plus X-band spectrometer at room temperature (298 K) or low temperature (∼220 K). General instrumental settings were as follows: modulation frequency, 100 kHz; microwave power, 10 mW; and modulation amplitude, 1 G for room temperature and 2 G for low temperature. Measurements were performed in 50 μL capillary tubes. Spectral simulation was performed by using the program developed by Professor Rockenbauer.43 In this study, the exchange, dipolar and hyperfine couplings are given in Gauss units which can be converted into cm–1 by multiplying with g × 4.6686 × 10–5, where g is the respective Zeeman factor. EPR measurements under anaerobic conditions were carried out using a gas-permeable Teflon tube (i.d. = 0.8 mm). Briefly, the sample solution was transferred to the tube which was then sealed at both ends. The sealed sample was placed inside a quartz EPR tube with open ends. Argon gas was allowed to bleed into the EPR tube, and then an EPR spectrum was recorded.

Faeces were collected from 8-week-old male ddY, ICR, C57BL/6, C3H/HeJ, and BALB/c mice, which were used for both free radical and microbiome analyses. Faeces were collected from 7–8-week old male GF-ICR and GF-C57BL/6 mice. Faeces from Ex-GF C57BL/6 mice were collected after 10 days of faecal transplantation. The samples were stored on crushed ice until use. CYPMPO (Shidai System, Tokyo, Japan) was used for spin trapping. Samples (approximately 100 mg) were diluted nine-fold with 100 mM CYPMPO solution (100 mM tris, 50 mM EDTA, pH 8.0) and mixed for 1 min with a spatula. After 15 s of weak vortexing, the samples were left to sit at room temperature (approximately 25 °C) for 30 min. The samples were centrifuged at 3,000 × g for 1 min at 25 °C, and approximately 300 μL of the supernatant was transferred to a flat disposable ESR cell (Radical Research Inc., Hino, Japan). Measurements were performed at 25 °C using a Bruker EMX-plus X-band spectrometer (Bruker Biospin, Billerica, Massachusetts, USA). The measurement conditions were as follows: field modulation, 100 kHz; resonance field, 342–362 mT; field modulation width, 0.1 mT; microwave power, 6 mW; time constant, 0.1 s; scan time, 10 times. The peak height was normalized by the signal intensity of Mn marker.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
