Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Macromolecules [thyroglobulin (Tg), TIC, TIM, guar galactomannan or yeast glycoproteins] were coated on Nunc MAXISORB microplate wells (maximum 1 µg in 200 µl PBS) by incubation at 37˚C for 3 h or overnight at 4˚C. The wells were washed with PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20 (PBST) and blocked by incubation for 30 min at 37˚C with PBS containing 0.5% Tween-20. After another wash with PBST, the wells were incubated for 2 h at 4˚C with 200 µl PBST containing the primary reactants (sugar-extracted platelet-bound triplets or antibodies separated from them) pre-incubated with or without specific sugars. Wells were washed with PBST again and treated with HRP-labelled secondary reactants (anti-immunoglobulin antibodies for antibody assay or anti-albumin antibody for triplet assay). After washing the plates again three times with PBST, bound HRP was measured by adding 200 µl OPD (0.5 mg/ml) dissolved in 0.1 M citrate-phosphate buffer (pH 5.0) containing 0.03% H2O2 for 15 min at 25˚C, followed by the addition of 50 µl 12.5% H2SO4 to stop the reaction. Absorbance was measured at 490 nm using an ELx800 ELISA reader (BioTek Instruments, Inc.).

Quantifying Anti-HBsAg Antibodies by ELISA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The immunopotentiation was measured by quantifying specific antibodies with a rat anti-HBsAg IgG enzyme-linked immunosorbent test kit (catalogue number 4270) from Alpha diagnostic International, United States. The test is based on the binding of rat anti-HBsAg in the serum samples to HBsAg immobilized on microwells of a microtiter plate. By the addition of horse radish peroxidase enzyme, the substrate tetramethyl benzidine (TMB), and stopping solution. The intensity of the color developed was measured by determining its absorbance at 450 nm using a BioTek ELx 800 ELISA reader (BioTek, Winooski, VT, USA). The concentration of anti-HBsAg was determined by extrapolating on the standard curve.

The glutathione contents of the brain and spinal cord were assessed using the Ellman reagent. Equal amounts of homogenized tissues and 10% w/v trichloroacetic acid were mixed. After centrifugation, 500 μl of supernatant was mixed with reaction buffer containing 3 ml of phosphate buffer (0.3 M, pH 8.9) and 500 μl of dithiobisnitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) (0.01 M). The absorbance of yellow colour was read at 412 nm using BioTek ELX800 ELISA Reader, USA [25 (link)].

Serological testing for production of antibodies (Ab) against Map was determined in all animals of the study using an indirect ELISA validated for domestic cattle, ID Screen® Paratuberculosis Indirect (IDVet, Grabels, France). This ELISA has a reported sensitivity of 41.5% and specificity of 99.42% [31 (link),32 ]. The test is a Mycobacterium phlei absorbed ELISA detecting anti-Map immunoglobulin G. The technique was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions for bovine samples. The absorbance values were measured spectrophotometrically at 450 nm using an ELX800 ELISA reader (Bio-Tek Instruments, Winooski, VT, USA). The results were expressed as a quotient between the mean OD of each sample serum and the mean OD of the positive control serum in each plate.

Quantification of Interleukin-2 by Sandwich ELISA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The sandwich ELISA was used to quantify interleukin 2 in tissue samples. The assay employs a monoclonal antibody specific to IL-2 coated on a 96-well assay plate. The standard and sample were analysed by binding with immobilized antibody. The end reaction was quantified by the intensity of colour formation which was measured at 450 nm by using BioTek ELX800 ELISA reader. The sample concentration was calculated by extrapolating on the standard curve.

Glucose: Glucose was measured in serum by the method of glucose oxidase [16 (link)] using Crescent diagnostics kit, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Insulin: The insulin was estimated by simple step sandwich ELISA technique. The free insulin is quantified by end point determination. The end point was estimated by the development of yellow colour which was measured at 450 nm by using Bio Tek EL X 800 ELISA reader. The sample concentration was calculated by extrapolating on the standard curve.

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.
