Cytotoxicity Evaluation of PEI Treatments

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HeLa (5 × 10 3 cells/well) was seeded in a 96-well plate 1 day before transfection at 37C. Subsequently, cells were treated with PEI 25K-CA and PEI 25K at 37°C for 4 hours. At the end of this period, the mixture was replaced with 100 µl of growth medium, and the cells were further incubated for 24 hours. The cell medium was replaced with 100 µl of medium containing 100 µg of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (Bio Basic Inc., Amherst, NY) and incubated for another 4 hours, followed by the addition of 100 µl of DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) (Amresco, Solon, OH). The optical density was measured using a microplate reader (SpectraMax M3, Molecular Devices, San Jose, CA) at a wavelength of 570 nm. Cytotoxicity (%) of cells was calculated relative to cells incubated with the growth medium as a control.

Ethyl 2-bromo-2-methylpropionate (EBiB, 98%), 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA, ≥99%), oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (OEGMA, Mn = 300 g mol−1), copper(i) bromide (CuBr, 98%), benzyl alcohol (BA, ≥99%) and tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine (Me6TREN, ≥99%) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. HEMA and OEGMA were purified by passing over a short column of activated basic alumina (Sigma-Aldrich) to remove the inhibitor and stored at −27 °C. Copper bromide was purified according to methods described in ref. 49 and 50 (link) and stored under argon at 4 °C. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, ≥99.5%, for HPLC) purchased from POCH S.A. (Gliwice, Poland) and water (HPLC Plus) purchased from Sigma-Aldrich were purged with argon before use. Concentrated phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, BioUltra) from Sigma-Aldrich was used after tenfold dilution with filtered, deionized water.

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.
