Eluted sugars were monitored with a Shimadzu ELSD- LT (Low Temperature) detector operated at 350 kPa and 45 °C. The elution flow was diverted to a collection tube when the target peak emerged and 5 mL (2 min) fractions collected before reconnection of the column eluant to the ELSD detector (to see the tail end of the peak). Collected fractions were analysed ‘as is’ by UPLC-MS/MS (as above), and a second portion freeze-dried and dissolved in D2O for NMR analysis.

At the end of the experiment, the plants were harvested and washed first with water and then with distilled water. The fresh weights of roots and leaves were determined, plant parts were cut in small pieces and 0.4 g of each plant compartment was sampled for enzymatic analysis while 0.3 g of roots was taken for DNA extraction. The plant samples for further analysis were immediately snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C; the remaining material was dried at 45°C and weighed.

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.
